Official 2023 Raptor R Order Thread

I also received the coveted email with my build date. Hoping to see it before Christmas 2023!!

Curious are those with build dates receiving an email from ford or a call from their sales rep?

Mine was an email from Ford.

This really is a crapper for you guys that have the R ordered. The C8ZO6 is turning out the same. Crap show for everyone.

My dealer gave me my build number and VIN as well as a link to track it once it goes into production. She gave me the build week (this week), so I just hopped on there on Monday and was pleasantly surprised to find it was actually in production.

Can someone confirm that the first one to know about production scheduling would be the dealership? I.e. are they informed that the allocation is ready to be scheduled and then they pick which customer gets picked up?

 

[asg0524]

Number one at my dealer and I work here, not scheduled yet

Any update? Has anyone at your dealership heard anything at all?

A guy I talked to said they are only producing about 4 a day right now. I’m sure that will ramp up, since they need to make 6-7 a day to complete the 2300 for year one.

Is the 2300 MY 2023 Raptor R production number confirmed or just a target production goal?

That was originally leaked to someone and was released by “the Raptor connection” and then a forum member that works on the production line posted that they were given around the same number. As you know, virtually zero information is released or verified by Ford

I have read the 2300 number as "wave 1" somewhere on this forum. I have no idea if true or not. I'm pretty sure Ford doesn't even know yet either what they can produce for entire year. My assumption they are being modest after the bronco rollout failure. Those with orders submitted yet no allocations could only hope there will be a "wave 2."

Raptor connection posted this on Instagram. Not sure what it means, personally, but pretty sure it’s saying less raptors for 23. He’s pretty reliable as far as raptor info.

I’d assume given the parts shortages we’ve had, they are now having to split them between regular and R’s. So the number of v6’s will go down. The 35” route might be more feasible given the R is a v8 37pp.
