Perhaps...no sense in crying over spilt milk I guess. But if they didn't replace your bumper I'd at least get try for free window tinting...oil changes..etc.

They gave free oil changes, but I would rather do it myself. They lost a good customer though, not because of this, but when I went to buy a Raptor, they wouldn't budge off MSRP. They said they sold all the Raptors they could get at $5000 over MSRP, so they were giving me a deal! It's amazing, but I guess there are lots of guys out there willing to pay! One dealer I spoke to said they ship almost all their Raptors over seas to China and the Middle East.

They cant sell them to China or the Middle east directly. Nor should they admit it. Big fines from Ford for that.

I know, I don't think its direct, but through a middle man, not much Ford can do about that.

Did they loan you a Raptor? I bet you have your truck tomorrow. Since they need to wash it etc, maybe Saturday...

I sure hope he gets his truck tomorrow. Speaking with the dealer, they need about 3 hours to do the PDI and wash/wax. Mine's on track for 7.30 arrival at Loma Linda, only thing that sucks is apparently they don't truck the cars down on weekends.

If they can't get mine to the dealer sometime tomorrow, going to have to wait for delivery early next week.

In the grand scheme of things, total first world problem. But still... I WANT MY RAPTOR!

Mine came in on the weekend, it was a Saturday afternoon.

Hey Blood this will probably the last time I ask about this truck....do you see if it's at the dealer yet?

Thank you for making this process fun and managable.

Have your dealer "hot tag" it so its a priority in making that 20 mile trip?

Mines exactly 24hrs behind your's, except then it has to come ~50ish miles or so.

The three of us are right around the corner from getting our trucks!

Hey Blood, if you have a moment just curious if you know the current location of my truck and also delivery date? My dealer told me maybe the 19th but SVT is saying 20th-26th. Thanks again for all your help.

Very happy for you that you have yours!

Well I ended up buying mine at MSRP. Only because it was nearly impossible to find a dealer that would sell it at sticker. They all sell for $10,000 over. I actually watched so guy in a Maserati buy one for $66,000...hahaha. I had three different dealers in Orange county actually laugh at me when I asked for MSRP. Redlands Ford was selling them at 500 over invoice but I was told in May if I order it then I might have my truck in a year? Way to long. I was a returning customer to Star Ford in Glendale and I think thats the only reason they gave me sticker. They sold another one they had for $10,000 over. But I was also lucky with the build and ship time. Ordered June 2nd, picked it up at the dealer July 29th. Yes I payed a little more than I wanted but the truck is well worth the money. Hope you guys get yous soon.
