Ordered 7/26 - Allocaton #2 of 4 at the dealership

9/1 - after informing my dealership about what I read on this forum about the CF option I, I received confirmation from them that I should ditch the CF package to ensure prompt scheduling

12/13- Again, after informing my dealership about what I read on this forum about the beadlock wheels, I got confirmation several days later that beadlock wheels need to be removed to ensure scheduling

12/15 was assigned a VIN and build week of Jan 9

Note: During the week of 12/12, the dealer handling my order really went to bat for me and put a lot of effort into inquiring up the chain of command at Ford as to why my order had not been pulled. He provided me daily updates (sometimes a few updates per day) from 12/12 to 12/15 when the order was finally pulled. Most of us ordering know a lot more about the process than the dealers do and we often get wind of updates (e.g. the CF and Beadlock shortages) prior to it being widely known throughout the network of dealers and even the Ford Zone Reps (neither my dealer nor the Ford Zone rep knew about the beadlocks prior to me asking about it on 12/8). If you are inpatient like me, politely keep in touch with your dealer and inform them about what you find out on the forum. Mine appreciated learning from what I gleaned off the forum and it helps him to be more informed about this process so that he can be a better salesman for future customers.

I haven't heard of one...

Also, it would be helpful if people added this info to their signature so when they make comments about communications with ford (social, fb, performance) we can readily see where they r in the process.

I'm I'm in same boat except I've never been given the word retrofit by ford or dealer. Status has been unchanged as "in production" as if dec 2. However ETIS shows an 11/28 build date. I was told it was at autoport since dec 2. Nonway is it still there for 2 weeks unless they are massively backed up. Only graphics and spray Bedliner. Very disappointed.

The status won't show "retrofit" at any time. That came from my Ford rep when I had her check on the status.

Great news for my first Raptor order customer and myself this morning. Both of our trucks have been released!! That means they should ship soon.

I'm not sure of any. But as of this morning my customer that ordered the first truck which was built 10/14 showed up this morning as released for shipping. So probably 2 weeks yet.

My truck built 11/26 also showed up released this morning.

Got text from the dealer this morning, the truck will be in Wednesday. They have never given me any kind of time frame. I drove by the Autoport that is about 4 miles from the house and you can see it from the road. My build date was November 12.
