Yelling at the dealer won't do anything then they have the order submitted, they've had it at Priority 10 since day 1, and they're calling their allocation person every day to yell at them and ask why their orders haven't been pulled yet.

So thats why I'm pissed at Ford themselves. I was fine with the first 2 weeks being OT2 builds for dealerstock for QA checks, but after that, they should not just be filling all orders by allocations, there shoudl be some balance point between that, and between guys who ordered FOUR F'ING MONTHS AGO. :flipthebird: OT2 orders should be based on volume sales, and OT1 orders should be based on 1st come 1st serve. There's NO reason to punish the guys who pre-ordered their trucks just because they're in a region that usually sells less volume of trucks.


lol you'd be amazed at how handy that comes to be having the VIN# memorized lol. I memorized it for both of my 00 HD trucks, and it's come in handy for ordering parts from the dealership, insurance, DMV, etc. lol. Although the look on peoples face when they ask for the VIN# and expect you to have to fumble around to get papers out or have to leave and come back, and you just start babbling off the 17 digits, they're always like "what the......really dude?" :ROFLJest:

Interesting happenings this afternoon..

Got out of class, did my usual routine of race to the computer to check for my window sticker and BAMMO.. I got a VIN!!

http://fordlabels.webview.biz/webviewhybrid/WindowSticker.aspx?vin=1FTFW1R68CFA47686

Only issue now is that apparently they built me a Tux Black Raptor when I had changed my color to an Ingot Silver Raptor. I know, first world problems..

I'm not sure how this happened as I changed the color last about eight days before I got my VIN and have hte paperwork that shows it was changed in the order bank but yet, here I sit with a black truck.

Time to have an interesting discussion with my dealer about options going forward. I'm certainly not giving it up since 1) I don't want to wait any longer and have an absolute MOUNTAIN of mods in my garage and 2) I originally ordered a Tux Black truck so I'm ok with it.. I had just really gotten into the idea of a silver one. I'm not sure what he's going to say but I think something should be done for me..

Good luck to everyone.. I'm off to resolve my first world problem.

Your build date is 12/21?

Mine is supposedly 12/22 so hopefully my sticker comes out tomorrow.

BGM, where are you at in our great state of PA? I'm in Nazareth

I'm not all that far from you.. I'm over by Harrisburg. I actually ran a Spartan Race over in your area a few months ago.

Once I get my truck we'll have to meet up one of these weekends and see what kind of trouble we can get these things into.
