vin's pulled

[Reptar]

Murphy's law: the truck will be delivered when you are out of town or when you are least expecting it.

lol you know what, that would happen to me LOL. Actually I'll probably get to pick it up, but later that same day fly out for a week or something. Just enough of a tease to drive it home, to have to leave it there for a week.

why is everyone afraid of the week between???? im getting scared im misssing something lol

With all the guys who have had their build week pushed from 12-Dec to 19-Dec, I'm going to assume it's a pretty safe bet the next batch of VIN's coming out will probably be pushed too. Does anybody know if the Ford plant shuts down the week between Christmas and New Years? That would be nice. I'd really hate to have a build the week of 26-Dec. I'd rather not have my truck built that week with employees distracted with new gizmos and gadgets they got for Christmas, or out partying that week, or less people at the plant, not to mention the veterans with more time off probably off that week, and all the low people on the totum pole covering that week. Yeah just what I want all newbs building my truck lol.

I'll settle for the week of 2-Jan. They have new years day to recover from getting hammered, and can start the year off right buliding my truck lol.

Shit Reptar. I saw you had the last post on this thread and got excited..... Thought you got yours....
But no, instead I got some mental hopscotch.

 

[Reptar]

lol, well the week is half way over, but I've got a good feeling I'll have a VIN# by the end of the week. We'll see how it goes!

I think it was the mods I ordered lol that triggered it!

Did I miss something??? What did you order?

Those holidays are correct... you should also be able to find Fords holidays on the UAW site within the contract.

Did I miss something??? What did you order?

Bakflip f1, bakbox, and bedrug from Morrie. And a set of weathertech digital floor liners, craven stubby, and fox racing contour mud flaps. Oh and a deezee tailgate strut. Clear bra will be scheduled for the weekend I get the truck

Well that's a relief, now I want my VIN ASAP! LOL! First Raptor built in 2012 for the first 2012 Raptor ordered

lol ah I gripe about it, but mostly to put it in perspective for others griping that they ordered 2 weeks ago and didn't get a VIN yet lol.

And yeah how naive I was back in August, that was when production was supposed to start Oct 24th, and I thought at the time I'd get a truck by mid November at latest LOL! Little did I know I wouldn't even get a VIN till December and a truck till mid-Jan Oh well, Nov & Dec truck payments went towards mods

Damn so i may end up not getting my new ride until late jan/feb.



At least it will give me time to change my color choice another few times...

White -> Race Red -> Blue flame -> ?????
