    Production Numbers

    Does anyone have any real insight into R production numbers? I’ve seen initial estimates of 3,000, but I’ve also heard less than 600 based on ordered 5.2L motors. I’ve also seen a lot of “allocations” sold, but few actual trucks. The Shelby forums were littered with actual photos as people...

    Raptor R Scheduling

    One thing I thought was crazy was how much metal flake is in all surfaces. The bumpers are flat black, but still have the metal flake in them. The Azure Gray paint obviously does, but the gloss black grill does as well. Metal Flake EVERYWHERE! :)

    Ford Order Status Update

    And yes, I do have a Mach-e Electric thing. I’m getting the Raptor R for the environment. After all, the plants and trees need the CO2 to survive. Buy a Raptor R, SAVE THE TREES!

    Ford Order Status Update

    Well, once yours is built, the Rail waiting game will be torture as well. Mine was built on December 22. A week ago it was in Atlanta. A week after, it was in Tuscaloosa, AL. It traveled 202 miles in 1 week. The Rail system is a joke. My order status first showed the truck being delivered...

    How many years will the Raptor R be made for?

    I hope you are right man. There have been a few cars that I felt the same way about and they just went up in price. Last Gen Viper. - I had a dealer offer me a 2015 GTS Viper for 90K brand new. The original window sticker was $149K. I was picked to get A 2015 GT350. I thought, well, the...

    Clearly a regular Raptor. The tow hooks aren’t code orange. DEAD giveaway!

    My R license plate approved

    Or you could get 6000SUX as a homage to Robocop. After all, “It goes really fast, and gets really s…ty gas mileage!”

    How many years will the Raptor R be made for?

    Didn’t hurt my feelings. I just said the jokes were lame… As far as the US Flag, it’s not a mirror image. It symbolizes a soldier carrying a flag into combat and what that flag would look like if you saw it on either their left or right side of the soldier. The stars are always closest to...

    How many years will the Raptor R be made for?

    Anyone who calls it an APTOR or RAPTO is... It’s not even remotely funny or witty. It’s just dumb. I’ve seen a few reviewers say that and even from the first one I thought, yeah, it‘s sad that’s the best you can come up with…
