Haha, thatās certainly possible. Iām also not looking to pay 70k, and I am completely opposed to 4 doors. I SAY I would stay with my 2 door BL, but I take your point lol.
And if people donāt like it, thatās ok tooā¦
Donāt give up hope? I guess? Communication is terrible at best. Until today, my last communication from Ford was confirming my 2022 re-order, back in July.
Customer account order page, until today, showed a gray Black Diamond, (incorrect) which I slapped reservation on 7/15/20. Still said I...
Nope, I just canāt get on board with it. It crossed some line somewhere, even if I canāt quite articulate where.
I would go tan Everglades over any Raptor, even though my eyes roll out of my head every time I see a snorkel.
And both just simply have 2 many doorsā¦
You made it through, good tires and the crawler gear are awesome. But it could have gotten hairy if you HAD to stop. Someone falls down in the middle of the road, ambulance pulled up at the bottom or something.
Donāt poke the bear too many times!
Youāre right. But itās already been a year and a half. And every dealership I drive by has 2. And people who ordered in late 2021 somehow managed to slip the deadline.
I would advise against anyone selling their current vehicle until that thing is literally in your driveway! This stuff is crazy. Itās confusing. 21ās are going to be delivered in May 22? Obviously canāt believe that date either. I supposedly have a build date of 3/7. Yeah right.
I guess the black is the best possible look. I feel like this is creeping into H3 territory. It depends what youāre buying it for. If just to have the most expensive, obviously. If you want to fender delete and go 40ās and put a bunch of accent lights and cruise the strip, probably work great...
Manufacturing and procurement is a mess right now. Youāre supposed to get some, it doesnāt show up. You just get through telling everyone you have nothing, 33% of the original order shows up. You ship that and cautiously project you might get the same amount next date. You get nothing.
Its a...
Itās a reality. It doesnāt help Ford that this compounds the errors in the disastrous rollout. I canāt help but think about all the delays prior to the chip crisis. If they had just managed this a little more efficiently, they might be in a much better place.
I think weāre back in the early days of ājust schedule them. If they get delayed they get delayed.ā All these reports of delayed deliveries are worrisome.
Oh these will get out on time. ( Did I just say that? Out, foul demon!)
With Covid apparently resurging, donāt bet on it. But at this point allocation seems to have taken control. If Ford wants to make sure all these Raptors get out, they can whisk the curtain around and do it. And they may.
Yeah, it sounds like some shady stuff going on. But. The big problem appears to be that you were never the reservation holder. If the original order holder is still getting the emails, you were never actually transferred to be the reservation holder.
From what I understand, name match to res...
Mid package, mod bumper, tow, kept the hardtop as I want a 2 door. These things are apparently still problems. It is what it is. Rowing upstream as a 2 door order š
Good luck all. I was a 2/21 build, already moved back to 3/7. I don't think the build date is encouraging beyond at least getting confirmation that you are in line. Not that I actually got an email from Ford at all...
Awesome! Hopefully I will soon be bringing another 2 door to the area. I have seen some 4ās, but the only 2 doors Iāve seen in W MA are yours and a cactus gray Iāve seen twice on 91.
