So last Thursday I get a call from the dealership and he tells me he might have something for me. So obviously I rushed to the dealership and there is a 2012 Raptor sitting in the parking lot. He says the person that ordered it was on the fence and didn't want it anymore, and asked if I did and duh I said yes. Next he said ok we will get everything going give us a couple hours to change everything to my name. About an hour later I was in the gym and get a call thinking they are ready for me, and he says the guy that was on the fence now wants to buy the truck. I was like crap ohh well back to waiting on mine. The very next day I get a call from the dealership and they tell me the guy and dealership couldn't make a deal on price and down payment so he stormed out, and if he didn't come back by 6 p.m. he no longer had rights to the truck and I could have it. So Saturday morning I picked up my new 2012 Ford Raptor screw. And if you read the title it ended with bad news within an hour of leaving the dealership I was rear ended leaving a parking lot :( so after waiting 7 weeks for the truck I fell into I now have to wait 5 more days until I get it back from the body shop. The wife said it was karma for not waiting on my truck.

And I bet he never stopped after that either just kept driving. At those moments is when I wish I was a cop.

The only thing it had that I didn't order was the Nav but I love having it so it worked out for the best. I didn't think there from looking at it that there was much damage but when I got it to the body shop he was pointing out all the things that actually happened. They have to replace the bumper, remove and repaint the right rear fender, and remove and repaint the tailgate. Total came out to $2511.19, that guy picked the wrong truck to hit.
