Oct build movement?

[TKS]

We should all demand an extended warranty if you have an October build. Dealer won't do it, but we need to push with Ford corporate. Any lawyers in this chat to lead the effort?

My 10/20 build 12/21 release is currently on a train in Ohio. Yesterday it was listed as "Awaiting Shipment" in Vehicle Visibility. Looks like there was some lag in their system updating.

It's posts like this (which I greatly appreciate) that make me anticipate a call from my dealer saying the truck arrived in NC "today" despite the recent check resulting in "awaiting shipment". I've been having this thought nonstop since October trucks started to trickle out... tic, toc.

Yeah I would say that it's not unrealistic to get a phone call like that. My dealer got their last 2 raptors with no updates in Vehicle Visibility. They just showed up.

Seems like a bunch of October builds were shipped this past week.

I think our trucks are on the same train. FP told me that my truck is in Ohio also with an eta to dealer of 1/7 to 1/9. Hopefully it shows up this weekend.

Feel compelled to ask, any indication of your truck going for "retrofit" prior to being released/shipped "for real"? Congrats on getting her close - hope that final 30min doesn't turn into days!

Nov 1 build is finally moving! FP (isaac) everybody knows Isaac, says as of yesterday it was in Brampton(ontario) should see within a week. See if I here from my salesperson shortly with an update(looking for $$$). Thats when it gets real.

It's guaranteed to have a retrofit with that build date. My 10/20 build did.

I'm certainly not an expert - but some have posted their truck has been built and stayed at Ramp 59 until shipped - others have posted their truck history shows "retrofit" - while others, like unfortunate Raptizzle have this "For what it's worth, my 10/20 build was released 12/13 only to get picked up by Roush 12/18. Radio silence since."

Maybe some retrofits are done "in-house" so there's nothing on the locator history that shows it... maybe not.
