Jlauth, sticker don't show until about 1week out. Your build date is more than likely the week of the 12th not that exact date, check every nite and relax.

Have you called SVT?

Yeah I have talked to SVT...they told me that it was scheduled the week of the 12, but that it would actually be built on the 12th. I'll call them back....this will be the third time. Hopefully they aren't keeping track. Haha

 

[Tautog]

FYI I called everyday for about 3 weeks, no problem

 

[jlauth]

Just called...got pushed to the 17th like the others....a Saturday build....hopefully the production workers didn't tie one on on Friday. I know that ford plant does run 3-10-120.

Ouch, I just called SVT and now I wish I didn't.

Waiting for the phone to ring each day with that "GREAT news...." but it hasn't come yet....eh another day by, grrr

Seeing the email updates that yep, it's stll just showing processing....damnit Ford! Lets go!

Hearing the guy on the phone say "It's showing as processing" as if that were progress, pffft, it's been processing since August.....ouch, that one stings! lol


Never would I have imagined it would take nearly 6 months from Order to Delivery, but it's looking more and more like my August order won't be delivered till end of January BEST case, and with each passing day a very probable chance of not seeing it till February.

Bummed out!

I think they have you confused with me !! As for the other suggestions, I am considering cancelling the order and replacing later this year. Now that the snowmegedon window is missed, I might as well enjoy a year without payments.

I ordered mine on 9/2 and called SVT again today. I was told originally it was to be built 12/12 but like most it has been pushed back to 12/17. They also stated the delivery date to the dealer is 12/26. They could not tell me the delivery date before. Is that new?

I can't consider cancelling my order as any path forward. The only joke would be on me, because what would I do, go to the very back of the line for orders again, and not get a truck for even longer? Or get something that I didn't originally want then be oozing with jealousy and regret every time I see another Raptor on the road? Or settle for a raptor off the lot that doesn't have exactly what I ordered, yet I'm paying all this money and plan on keeping the truck for a decade, but going to let my impatience get the best of me and cut a couple weeks off the wait desipte YEARS of ownership to get it sooner but miss out on those exact options I wanted. Few more weeks with no truck to get one I ordered exactly, that I'm going to have for years.

Be nice if Ford themselves would have either been able to give us a realistic ETA so we're not left totally in the dark, or at least give us some kind of kickback for those of us who have waited FOREVER to get one and still staying dedicated to ordering one.

But this is one of the reasons I'm glad I ordered from Randy. I know I'm getting the latest updates on the truck, and he's pushing to get the orders through just as bad as we want them, and I at least have zero stress that some random salesman at a dealership isn't forgetting about me.

It appears that Ford has gone quiet this week. We havent heard of anyone getting a VIN this week. I wonder if it has to do with that week 48 shut down?

 

[Reptar]

I sure hope so for the sake of still possibly having the opportunity to get a 1st week jan build date for a Jan delivery date.

Reptar, is it possible your delay might have something to do with the fact that Randy has so many orders in the system? I almost ordered from Randy back in late August, and with all due respect to him and to you, reading your posts make me glad I didn't. Hang in there bro, I'm sure you will get your VIN soon.
