    Would Ford really send out a truck with retrofits to be performed by dealer ???

    Hope it's the CF package shortage which I deleted

    Anyways, I was expecting my delivery nov 21, so it's ETA +2 days and counting

    Dealer thinks it comes in next week

    Gdog,

    Yes i see a pattern, no one knows shit and we're all speculating based on little hard facts.

    Only fact is this, none of us who've ordered the new truck have one.

    Talked to my dealer up there in CO yesterday, my order is pulled but still no build date or VIN#.

    Having patience is a bitch!!!!!

    Can't believe that there is no info out there, none... It is all a guessing game at this point. Maybe its this, maybe its that. All I know, it is BS!!!

    I ordered my raptor on August 5th, raptor was built on October 17th, and delivery date was supposed to be first-second week in November. I have my VIN already. Have been calling Ford Performance, last call was 15 minutes ago, spoke to Isaac. No details are available. My car has not shipped. He has NOT seen any raptors shipped so far, and has no information as to what the issue is, or when they will be released. He said the release is "up to the factory". My dealer has no information, and the delivery status is TBD. This is complete bullshit.

    Just back from a week hunting and I see that not much has changed. It was nice not to be running my daily Google searches "2017 FORD RAPTOR" with the search tools filter for last 24 hrs!
    My build date isn't until next week, so I don't even deserve to bitch. After reading all your posts for the last week I wanted to make sure build dates weren't being effected.

    Not sure if this is the same for US orders, but here's the crap I just got from Ford Canada;

    Your vehicle is still being processed at this moment. There is not a scheduled date that has been assigned to it.
    Ford Service Canada

    Have to say I am a little disappointed with the info Ford is providing to customers. There is so much misinformation online. I actually already have a build date from the dealer. So is this build date BS? PackNIron

    The resources the dealer use is different than ours. They have less restriction than me. The only information I am able to share with you is the primary status of the vehicle and the ETA. The dealership, on the other hand, can give you more information. Sorry for this confusion. Ford Service Canada

    In the mean time here's a little Deer porn ( wish that had been my Raptor bed ); _DSC2970 web.JPG

    My convo with ford service today. Mine was built 10-25. Originally had an eta of 11-15.

    Me
    Any raptors shipping out? I guess they had to fix something first on all the built ones? That's what people are saying on forums. Do you know if any are shipping or around when they will start? Thanks

    Them
    Hey! I have not come across any that have shipped just yet. With this being a holiday week, that could be a gig factor. I have not heard of any delays such as this, and I'm unable to access when they will actually start shipping. No changes on your order just yet. Let's hope for good news next week!

    Just got back home from visiting the in laws in Michigan. While we were there we did the henery ford museum and the Dearborn rouge plant tour. I will tell you guys this much there are F 150's and raptor moving into place for shipment by rail. Saw them moving them myself. Also they continue to build raptors at a rate of one out of every ten f150 trucks. (Guesstimate). Place is amazing and highly recommend both tours! While everyone else was looking at plants on top of the roofs I was checking out the drivers taking f150's and raptors towards the rail shipment area!

    Truck looks awesome in person btw. Not only got to see it being built but saw them driving it along the roads near the plant and sitting in the staging area. Got some long range pics to post soon. There is a shit load of trucks waiting to be shipped out and looked like they are running out of room at the rouge plant..

    think the same story we are all getting and can agree is nobody has it yet and every ford dealer saying same "no date for delivery" yet. this is the "new" marketing world and ford wants to keep the confusion going. i do know one thing no matter how many are built they wont ship until some bean counter says they can. we all know the world revolves around the mighty dollar so when the CFO says they can start shipping they will ship.
