About a week ago I was told mine would probably be pulled in a couple of days. Now I’ve been out of town,but will talk to him tomorrow. Not quite sure if anyone knows. I’ve heard as early as November to be delivered. I think it lands when it lands. Based on what I’ve read on here, I would say that is way off. View attachment 113731

Ford does scheduling every Thursday. Originally the first week was set for 9/20 but now it appears it’s been pushed back to 9/27. Dealers will tell you anything you wanna hear about getting a truck quickly to get your money. Production is set to start 10/22, if not pushed back now, then you need 5 days of no issues for OK to buy then they get loaded on convoy or rail then sit at rail yards then convoy to dealer. Average is 2-4 weeks from Production. All depends on dealer location, weather, rail yard delays, etc. so best case maybe mid November If your #1 on the list and dealer gets selected for its allocation first week of production. Lots of variables. Lots of us waited 4-8 months for 2017s. 2018s were a little faster but now with new shocks/seats something may delay production. Who knows

OK after eight months they would have to remind me that I ordered one. That would be ridiculous. I get it though it is what it is

I will say this though. On the magnetic I think the Raptor logo looks really good

Kind of how I feel. I emailed and he responded that he has nothing yet. Claims he checks almost every day. I will wait until next Friday and email again. At least he responded.

Easiest is just call or online chat with ford performance on Thursdays. Give order number, dealer code and 2019 raptor. May need order date. They tell you instantly if scheduled. Then if it is ask dealer for vin

It’s rare for two of us to get scheduled in week 1. People wait months for their vin and build date. Unless your #1 on a high allocation dealer

I think some are confused by the priority codes and thinking if they are 01, they will be the very first build in line. There could be 1 or 1000 all with the same priority.

This. My salesman was happy to provide me with the info after I told him that I would start bugging someone else once I have the dealer code and order code.

If your build is set to priority 1 it was by ford and will be imminently scheduled. Even when a truck is damaged on rail car or convoy that immediately becomes a priority 1

Priority code 10 to 98 doesn't make a difference but 01 is definitely different.
