    Welcome! What part of Texas are you from? I thought they were all done with taking 17' Raptor orders and putting people on waiting lists for the 18' model...guess not?

    Don't believe so, at least ordering is not, what I mentioned was dealers having their own internal "waiting lists" for clients wanting an 18' model whenever in the future that becomes a possibility to order, they will (hopefully) call back and work with those people on a first come first serve basis. I just thought that 17' ordering was all done , meaning all allocations spoken for already but maybe not? RUFdriver, did you order a 17 or did they put you on the list of first production for an 18? Just wondering. Thanks

    I can relate! Placed my (very similar Magnetic SCREW) order last month, still don't have a build date (but do have a DORA from dealer and confirmation (of sorts) through FoMoCo SVT that they are (still) in pre-build stage.

    *sigh*

    God give me patience, and give it to me right now.

    ;)

    Sorry for late reply. I'm in Houston, all of the dealers are asking over msrp, even my closest dealer where I bought several cars wouldn't budge. I went down the road to the next dealer and gave a deposit after a brief test drive. They called me Friday and said ford accepted the order and to expect an early June build slot. I gave up on the bead locks and CF so I think that helped.
