I'm a little confused on how fast FORD builds trucks. My build date was Oct 9. Today, I live chatted FORD and they said my truck is still in production... I thought it only takes 24 hours to build a truck? Anyway, they did say i have an estimated delivery date of Nov 3, so that is good. I just hope that date stands!!

Are you sure your build date was Oct. 9 not the week of Oct. 9?

I was told by Ford Service that my build was week of Oct 9. but the actual build date is Oct. 14 and a delivery date of Nov. 1

Edit: The actual build date should be on the window sticker.

If you ordered spray in bedliner that takes another week or so.

I got the spray-in bedliner. I can see why that would extend the time. I hope Nov 3 will stay the date. I'm so pumped!

Just got this from a dealer I'm talking to

"Hi Ryan,

I just touched base with my Ford manager. Right now we have five orders that are pending for Raptors. What he explained to me is that the order banks are going to open up at the end of next month. Ford is not given us a certain amount of allocations per se. What they are going to do is filling the orders in order as they start production.
What we are doing is pricing the vehicles at $1,000.00 over invoice. Essentially what we are doing is collect deposits for the vehicles and running them once the order gets picked up. We can not guarantee anything right now but we can put you in line if you like. Let me know what your thoughts are and how you would like to proceed."

I thought order banks were open? Otherwise, how do folks already have build dates? Thoughts?

I think he meant clear out, not open up.

Hi, looking to order the '17 Raptor in CA and all dealers charging $10k - $20k mark up. Saw some posts in this thread talking about out of (CA) state dealers ordering at MSRP and/or slightly above. Tried calling some dealers in Las Vegas, NV and they too are working their way down from $20k mark up.

Anyone point me in the direction of a dealer outside of CA that might have allocation and would deal at or around MSRP? Any info much appreciated. Thanks.
