still hasnt shipped yet. finished dec 28th

Mine was finished the same day and has been shipped. You should check directly with FP rep so that no parts are missing and if it has actually been shipped.

Mine says shipped as of this morning.

What did it say right before that? “Plant hold”?

Check everyday with fp. Everyday they said it’s just awaiting shipment.

it said built awaiting shipment for weeks. The dealer said it was on the train.

Placed my order on the first day it opened, and it was sitting until just a few days ago. Dealer called and told me it was because of the tonneau cover, of all things! So we removed that from the build, and it is now scheduled for 2/20 production. I was thinking delivery would be maybe a month later, but from reading this thread, looks like it may be a while! Excited for y’all. This will be my 3rd Raptor - had A ‘17 Gen2 that unfortunately met an early and untimely death, and currently have a ‘22 Gen3. Major improvement from the Gen2 for sure. Has a heated steering wheel, but missing the correct engine….

LOL they had literally pulled it off the transit truck about 5 minutes before that pic, so it was indeed dirty. I happened to be driving home (dealer is around the corner), and they called to say it had just arrived. I stopped in since I was 2 minutes away.

Clean (Starbucks appropriate) pic attached. This truck is pretty awesome. It's as fast as my TRX, but in a different way. The power comes on different, and the R is noticeably lighter than the TRX. Almost no supercharger whine (I'm conflicted on whether I like that or not), and the power is seemingly constant as it goes through the gears. I'm extremely pleased with the transmission, which was a major cocern of mine. It shifts butter smooth and very fast. I was afraid it would shift like the POS 10-speed in the Gen 2 Raptors. Not the case at all.

FWIW mine showed "shipped" for about a week and a half and then it just showed up. Dealer had no idea it was coming. They actually thought a Bronco Raptor I had coming was going to show up first, but the R just magically appeared.
