InternationalRaptor - You have every reason to be upset. And Iād definitely be mad if that were me in your situation.
My dealer has been in regular contact with me monthly, even if no news. They are just honest, do business fairly and take care of your customer type of family owned dealership...
I just took delivery of my Bronco Raptor. Hereās how all the pricing played out.
1) Dealer honored the Oct ā22 MSRP from when order was resubmitted as a ā23 after carryover from ā22. Caveats to this, my address since the order was placed has changed. Ford would only honor that pricing if the...
Iām at 1,041 days and counting. My reservation was confirmed & accepted by Ford on 7/13 at 10:10p. I do finally have a production date⦠fingers crossed it actually materializes soon.
Im sure theyāve been impacted by inflation. But nowhere near the extent that the pricing has increased. Itās a convenient and partial excuse but not the complete truth.
My take on it⦠Ford is closing the gap with the ADM market and higher used car sales. It helps price protect the used market...
My dealer confirmed that they could honor the MSRP price from the time the Raptor order was placed in the system in ā23. No additional cost for me to carry. Which was my preference because I donāt want to finance a higher amount. They will manage the rebate direct with Ford on their side.
Also...
My concern about getting screwed is actually with Ford corporate- not the dealer. I donāt think my dealer is intentionally trying anything shady. They donāt charge ADM on anything, either orders or in stock inventory. Just because they want their customers to know that they didnāt gouge them and...
Iām really hoping for some positive feedback here, but given how this whole thing has gone down I feel like Iām probably screwed.
I had a Day 1 reservation for a 2 door First Edition. I was offered a Golden Ticket by Ford for the MY22 Raptor. I placed an order in 22 (prior to the GT cutoff...
Curious⦠could the damage by the headlight and front bumper have been due to it being stolen with a recently new tactic āheadlight hackingā?

As a cautionary tale the OPās story has a lot of potential...
For comparison Iām a Day 1 reservation holder with a Golden Ticket. My order is at a small, very low volume, midwest dealership that I chose when making the reservations before anything was known about the process.
My understanding based on conversations with the owner of my selected...
Has Ford done anything to offset depreciation of these vehicles when delivering a previous model year after production/delivery has started for the current model year?
As a customer your purchase is instantly devalued. In the āoldā days dealers would have been discounting old inventory to make...
My understanding of codes⦠if you are Priority Code 1, then your reservation has moved into Scheduled and you should have a date.
Priority codes 10-19 are waiting for scheduling.
7/13 reservation. Priority code 10. GT holder. Only Raptor my dealer has.
Still a big fat nothing.
Hopefully my disappointment helps others feel better about their wait.
The Ford configurator currently lists the shifter as included for the current F-150 Raptor carbon package. I trust your knowledge and experience with past iterations and quality.
I agree, the CF integration for the Bronco looks like a higher quality product. Really like the matte finish as...
For me the interior is money well spent. Iām the one sitting in the vehicle and thatās what Iāll see and touch more than anything else. The CF gives ME something to experience and enjoy. It makes it feel that much more special.
I sat in a Bronco for the first time this week. It has a lot of...
Did anyone get their Raptor build pushed to production this week? Or know of the next schedule date?
I havenāt gotten my production date yet. If anyone is curious hereās my build details.
Original day 1 reservation holder, GT, no graphics, lux package, carbon fiber, orange accent seats.
I could easily tow a 2 horse trailer loaded with horses using a Grand Cherokee Diesel. And didnāt feel it behind me. I was surprised by how capable it was.
