Wondering how many people who were selected for a GT and converted over to a raptor would switch back if they knew then what they do now. Most of us are day 1 reservation holders and were very high on our dealers list for getting scheduled. I cant speak for everyone but ford and Granger sold me on the believe that my Raptor GT would be built and delivered before my Day 1 original build. Seeing multiple people get builds exactly like mine scheduled and delivered since all this went down is ANOTHER SLAP IN THE FACE by FORD. I continue to try and understand how I could let myself fall for the same thing twice! Shame on me I guess for actually believing what FORD promised and said. So again if you had a do over with switching your original reservation over to a GT Raptor or taking your chances on your original build....What would you do? I for one would definitely have kept my orginal build. Let me know what all of you think. Just so very frustrated seeing more and more broncos around town, seeing people with reservations WELL AFTER mine get their Broncos, seeing people that I had to tell about the bronco and explain the reservation process to get theirs, all while i continued to be the butt of all bronco jokes "Got your bronco yet?" "Got your build date yet?" "Hows the Granger experience for you?" ( @Zach@Granger ) I would love to answer any and all of these in positive ways but hence i cannot! Congrats to all those that have build dates and or their broncos, i dont blame or harbor anger towards any of you. This ENTIRE process has been a complete and utter SHIAAATTTTSHOW!!

As far as I know, there's no such thing as a Raptor GT or GT Raptor. You are going to be waiting a long time for one of those.

EDIT: Never mind, I had no idea what you were talking about
GT= Golden Ticket, not a special edition Raptor.

I think he is referring to

GT = Golden Ticket

I’m hoping this is sarcasm.

The GT stands for golden ticket, move along ! If you know then you know , I don’t want people to vote who went to their dealer asking for a allocation, I know how they would vote, I wanted people who received a GT(golden ticket) and were selected for an opportunity to change their original reservation of a regular bronco to a Raptor

Well, I'm not in the Raptor game, I just want a Base 2dr with Sasquatch and Ford can't build those either. Next month (Aug) will be the 2 yr anniversary of my res. I did figure there was a years worth of builds ahead of me, looks like it will be closer to a 3 year total wait.
You guys that ordered Raptors knew it was going to be a later build (22-1/2). But I agree it's a sin that many which ordered on the first day still haven't received your Broncos.
I figure those of you that did get a Raptor allocation (Golden ticket) will likely get them this year since you are also at the front of the line for all Broncos. I'll guess you are more likely to get your Raptor than you would to get a day one res build with a lot of constraints.
I can't see blaming Granger for any additional delays.... it's all on Ford. The allocation mess is also all on Ford... they changed the rules several times. And finally, few of us knew how much the constraints would affect our build date. Can't totally blame Ford since much of that is out of their control, but Ford should have had contingency plans.

I'm not gonna vote since I'm not in the Raptor game.
I'd say it comes down to whether you wanted a Raptor and were willing to wait a few extra months to get it. However, it didn't turn out that way since even other first days res's are still waiting.

I’m a day 1 reservation holder and didn’t get a GT for a Raptor. My wild trak was built on June 2 and is still sitting in Ford limbo.

I’d would than more than happy to still be waiting for a Raptor!

You at least have it built, it sucks you don’t have it , but waiting for a build of a raptor or waiting to receive something already built are 2 different things, I would switch if I could, cus at least you know yours is coming. I’m still not sure I’ll be getting a my22 even thought for the SECOND time I was promised I would. But trust me I understand your frustration

Did you take the time to read my message? I could have had my day 1 reservation, people from granger after me have received theirs. I blame Granger for the simple fact the said the raptor would be be built before my day 1 badlands reservation build. I blame Ford for the lies after lies and continued zero updates. Your august reservation is a month past most, and all true bronco fanatics where in the first couple days. You were way behind the curve on your order so you don’t know the frustration. And if you don’t have a raptor order don’t come in the raptor forum and act like you know. I hope you get yours soon and wish you the best, but you are not in the situation that the majority of us are in here in this forum. Good luck to you buy like I said, move along!

If I wouldn’t have received a GT I was going to cancel my original reservation. So, at this point for me at least, I’m just waiting it out and it is what it is. Do I wish I’d have one by this point yeah, but it is what it is.

I’d still rather have the raptor.

If they offered me the option of giving up the built wild trak that’s waiting to ship for the raptor slot I’d take it with out a second thought.

My Badlands was next on the dealers list to get pulled, this is just more Ford kicking me in the nuts while spending more of my money.

most car dealerships lie about everything. I assume if their mouth is moving its a lie until I can verify it...
