I checked with Ford Service yesterday and was told my order had an ETA of 12/3. Last status at the end of last week was at the Upfitter, but I find it hard to believe it'll be here the end of next week....

I talked to Ford Performance who told me that my truck is "stationed at one of the ford facilities around the DTP."

He has not seen a Raptor listed as shipping yet.

Our dealer locator still doesn't show any Raptors (without spray liner) in transit. The spray liner ones show transit when they are being moved for the bedliner.

I also did a 10 page search on the standard 17' 3.5 eco with the 10 speed. Not a single one of those is showing transit yet either.

So serious question...outside of these non confirmed posts.....have you been able to confirm that the OKTB has actually been given?

Not yet. It still hasn't shown up on our dealer home page with Ford and I texted my rep this morning. She said she hadn't heard yet either but would ask again. I haven't gotten that reply yet.

recieved this email from my dealer about 2 hours ago:

Hello Gene,

Here's the latest scoop from Ford regarding the Raptors.

Subject:  2017-Model Year Ford Raptors Have Been Granted the OK-to-Ship

Summary:  2017-Model Year Ford Raptors have been granted the OK-to-Ship.

However, there are a number of retrofits that need to be completed and this will take some time to draw down the inventory of Raptors already produced.

The plant will be doing everything it can to prioritize retail orders and draw down the inventory by the end of the year.

NO ETAS WILL BE PROVIDED NOR EXPEDITES GRANTED DUE TO THE HIGH VOLUME OF RAPTORS AFFECTED. 

It is recommended that dealerships let customers know that they should receive their orders by the end of December but individual orders cannot be traced nor can precise ETAs be provided; some of the affected Raptors are not likely to arrive at dealerships until after the 1st of the year.

Sincerely,
