Good news is I got an update on my 10/20 build that was released 12/13.

Bad news is that only the eta was updated to a start date of 1/20 with an end date of 1/26.

So much for thinking it could show up any day now. If they stick to that timing, I would realistically get it almost by March by the time it makes its way to CA. That puts this truck at a 4 month delivery schedule post production and 8 months since my order was placed back in July.

That'll be here before you know it. I've had to go to the bathroom and held it for longer than that! :specialed:

Been without a truck since October 24th when I traded my '14. Already canceled a trip to Colorado since I didn't want to take it in the mustang. Have reservations in Colorado again for February 2nd. Hope I don't have to cancel them for no truck either.

Ordered July
Built 10/16
Now showing released and awaiting shipment per facebook.

Blue SCrew
802A

Beadlocks
graphics and tailgate
Removed carbon fiber early on because of delay per dealer.
Couldn't put interior accent with blue when I ordered. :(

Just got the text my Oct 13th build has been delivered to the dealer! Worst part I am leaving to go out of town for few days and now wife is jumping with joy she gets to go pick it up and drive for the weekend! Can't wait!! Delivered Jan 5th. Don't have any other details yet. Can't wait to find out how many miles are on it.

Well our first unit that was built October 14th got dropped off last night.

The truck is dirty but not that bad for sitting almost 3 months.

As mentioned above most of the pictures I've seen of the Avalanche trucks looked close to white. This truck looks NOTHING close to white in person. At first I was a bit disappointed in the color but after moving the truck and looking at it from other distances and angles it looks great!

I started the entire check in, stock in, service PDI and insp, fill with fuel and detail process at 8:30 am. The truck will be in the buyers hands by 12 or 1 today. He's waited since Sept of 2015 to get his hands on one of these...... don't need him to wait a minute longer.

The sticker on the window said Ford put 28 miles on the truck for testing. The truck arrived here with 74.7 miles on it.

You should start a "train the trainer" customer service class for the preponderance of other Ford dealers out there! Wish my dealer cared...

Thanks for all the updates and solid info!

Most of the difference is I love this stuff versus the usual salesman that just does it for a job. So I get as excited as the customer.

I've been in constant contact with my Raptor customers sending them emails with links to reviews, pictures and any information or status I can find.

Its a wonder the guy getting this truck didn't report me as a stalker. lol

What so many salesman don't see is that type of service rewards you with tremendous loyalty and referrals. I just sold one of my customers Tuesday that I've sold for 30 years now.

I don't get why we couldn't get the interior accent pack in the blue it would have looked great

DELIVERED!!!



En route to dealer to pickup now.



fwiw, palsapp did not work for me. Shows "null" with my VIN. Ford Performance call this morning netted "Shipped, No ETA."

Here she is. I requested no prep and that exactly what they did!



What do they exactly do with the prep? More and more people are staying away from it. Thank you
