At this point I'm just waiting for the dealer to wire me back my money and they can fix the truck and sell it to someone else. Honestly I don't blame the dealer, but I think Ford should've stepped up and given me the extended warranty considering the truck needs such a major repair before delivery. I've started checking around again locally to see if the dealers here are still being nuts and asking $15k over for a truck.

You are VASTLY further ahead by letting this go. These gen 2 trucks are going to be problematic without some desperately needed changes.
FWIW, I went to college with a few inside Ford and they realized they have made a huge mistake with this truck.

Your buddies didn't do their homework. Forgetting to put a weep hole on these trucks was a huge mistake.

Man, it takes a special kind of ************* to delight in the misfortune of others. This is the 2nd Gen2 owner you’ve “liked” their failure post and it is really growing tiresome seeing you pop up like a game of whack-a-mole ripping on a truck you don’t even have.

Seriously, please sit down, calm down and take a nice big sip of shut the f*ck up juice.

It is seriously despicable to delight in others misfortune and you have been bringing that to new heights.

With apologies to other posters and readers.

They spend more developing this truck than the old one. Everything ford makes is going to have issues because they rush stuff to market but they always make it right in the long run.

I am terribly sorry to hear of this, and I think Ford has made a big mistake with how they have handled this for you. It hasn’t helped so far, but I continue to wish you luck and a speedy resolution.

Update Today:

Not too much to update really. My dealer has gotten me a rental as I am going out of town to Vegas this weekend and didn't want to put the road miles on the 11 Raptor. They got me an Expedition which will work well hauling 5 people out. This was my dealer that got me the rental, not Ford Corporate. In fact, my dealer was surprised to hear that I have yet to get a call from my case manager from Corporate.

No update on the part, still waiting. As I stated in another post, I'm inclined to let the situation get to over 30 days as I believe it will increase my options for demands and/or compensation. First time ever going through this, so I have no idea what to expect.

As for Sasquatch77 "likes" or repetitive comments on negativity of the G2 Raptor, all I can say is if you can tune Jake17 out you can tune anyone out. It doesn't bother me. Hopefully I'll have another update before I head out of town on Friday.

$3,000 over sticker is what they are asking. In stock and seems to be what you had before. I was talking to the sales guy and he seemed willing to move the truck so they might take less. Who knows.
