Hello to you all,
Put my order in a few weeks ago on 2012 Tux SCREW, Lux package. Waiting on exact guaranteed delivery date but right now Exchange is saying no later than 2 Sep.
Stationed out of San Diego, 19-year Navy guy and extremely excited about getting the truck finally. Have talked about it for a year and then borrowed a new Chevy from a buddy for a Boy Scout camping trip and the wife from that point on was pushing for me to get a truck. Even though we are Ford Family through and through.
Saw a Raptor driving buy and LOVED it. Looked at Raptor at a dealer here in San Diego but wanted to wait until I could order through the Military Exchange program...wait was painful. Went to other Ford dealer and looked at FX4 with EcoBoost and drove it - thought it was a nice truck and the Manager was begging me with an INCREDIBLE deal to take it, but I finally just said "no, I will regret it within 2 months if I don't buy the Raptor". Wife said she would be happy with either but she thought I should go Raptor!
So, now it is just the wait and looking at all the mods I want. Have been lurking on the forum for a month or so and the information is very helpful and appreciated. Will post pics when I get her in a few months.
Thanks!
