Bloomberg goes to Dearborn to see the Raptor get built

The Amazing 20-Hour Process Of Building A New Ford F-150 Raptor

I know that the Bloomberg reporter is a member here. I just can't remember his tag. He was saying that this was coming up.

If this is posted somewhere else already, mods feel free to delete this one.

Congrats on the new ride Matt.

Was that my SE being built? Ha!

Nice video.

Nice! Matt is off in his Raptor now, no time to post LOL!

they coudl've made that video SO much cooler.

I tried like hell to get to see them build mine. Called in favors, bribed officials, kissed babies, but still couldn't get it done. My dad got the VIP tour for his Ford GT #1, but guess I didn't rate.

I'm not with Bloomberg and won't be making a video, but I'll be there tomorrow morning to see my new one roll out. I'm told it's currently in prime/paint and will start down final assembly after midnight, so I hope to catch the tail end of assembly tomorrow morning around 6am.

I was there when mine was built. The workers there are very proud of the truck and thanked me for buying. It was an awesome experience.

So are they now taking people onto the assembly line? I knew you could go to the mod center, but watching come down the line at the plant wasn't possible

You can see some things at the rouge tour. But I "knew a guy".
