2019 Ford Raptor Dealer Allocation & Orders

Hi, is anyone here looking or waiting to order a 2019 Raptor?

I discovered that the 2019 order dates starts on 5/15/2018

Any input based on last year 2018 factory fabrications dates and experiences?

Due the new trucks arrival for 2019 (GMC / Chevy / RAM), I believe that Ford may update the Raptors as well.

Please let me know your input.

I wouldn't count on many updates since it's only 2 years old at this point.

What new trucks in 19 that compete with the Raptor?

What’s the motivation for Ford to change anything on the Raptor?

It has no competition...there is no horsepower war like Mustang and Camaro....

They sell every single unit. No reason to change the current Raptor.

You got a point!

The ecoboost is killing it. Why mess with success?

Look to the Gen-1 timeline on how Ford updates the Raptor. There will be no major changes. You will likely gain a new color and lose a previous color. Small creature comfort and cosmetic minor changes only.

Last day to order a 2018 is 5/18/18. I would expect the 2018 order banks to open in July-ish.

+1 on this opinion. Even the updates to the F150 line in 2018 were incredibly minor. New front grill, stamped "F150" on the tailgate, but the interior is the same and other options have remained mostly static.

Personally, I liked the grills on the 2015-2017 F150s more than the new 2018 grills. I hope the Raptor keeps its styling for another year or two.

Why do you find the need to answer every question with OP HAS A LOW IQ? If that's how you feel then don't lower your IQ to answer the question.

I'm waiting on a 2019, but only because the lease on my current F150 isn't up until next Spring.

I have a deposit on an order with my local dealer, who said he expects the dealership to receive their 2019 allocations in early Summer. He said if 2019 follows the trend of 2018, they will able to submit orders mid-Summer with first deliveries coming in sometime in September.

He said their turnaround time on Raptor orders is generally 6-8 weeks from submission to delivery.

I just have to play the waiting game.... The 14 month waiting game. :-\
