Just heard back from my dealer for what its worth.
"I also got an answer back from my Ford rep this morning. They've completed all the updates and quality control on all the trucks. The delay with yours has more to do with the fact that it came off the assembly line as early as it did and just wind up at the back of a line of thousands of trucks waiting to get loaded up on the rail cars. They expect to have all these vehicles 1 trains by the end of the week@"
Take it for what its worth. Hopefully the info is legit.

This is what i suspected all along. I talked with the GM of the dealer I ordered from today and he told me he has called and tried everything to get more info on the problem with no luck. Looks like we are stuck just waiting at their mercy. If Ford is shipping these Raptors out from last to first I would have to say this is the worse customer service i've ever seen. I don't think their is any way my truck will be here before the new year, which presents a problem with putting it on 16 taxes.
