Today’s the day...

I will need patience but I am officially going to order my 19 Magnetic Raptor today. I’m located outside of Detroit so not to far from where these beasts are built. I’ll follow the sticky thread on how to track my order but I know this wait will be grueling. This will give me time to start to pickup some build parts.

Lol, she is already sick of me deciding between the Raptor and an F350 diesel. I finally decided on the Raptor since I rarely pull enough to require the diesel, mostly just always wanted one. The additional fuel cost, extra maintenance and overall height finally turned me off.

If you don't tow very often ... I would go for the Raptor even more so because of the comfort of the ride and responsiveness to your right foot . The ride on the 350 is MUCH stiffer and bouncier simply because of the suspension being designed to carry payload and towing . These Raptors are great for road trip comfort imo

I was reading in the ordering post on sticky about issues with ordering beadloocks and carbon fiber inlays together. I ordered mine that way, not sure if anyone know but was the waiting issues just early on in the process on that combo?

lol, a pretty constant comment from my wife for the past year or so has been, "Oh great, I get to hear more about Raptors...."

@northerner77 Where outside of Detroit are you? I'm in SE Michigan as well. And the nice thing about living as close as you do to Dearborn Assembly is that delivery is much faster. From build to dealership was eight days for me.
