I was told to not order that when I ordered, but still didn’t matter, not getting mine :(. I would wager $ that is not the reason for the hold because they want vehicles delivered, off their storage property, which is full because of chip holds

no, just started new job, hours will reduce, but no vacation this year, just a couple short trips, in my Gen1, since my Gen3 will not ship this year. I may just wait for a Raptor Bronco. :/

F-off, I fn read and write code 16 hours a day, am in the middle of being as sick as I ever have been and still working 16 hour days, and I still fn know what Ivread and what I wrote and still was dead on my prediction from almost 3 years ago, and what’s to come i etc the next 3 years. I haven’t...

You are arguing with me when my comments agreed with several points you made. I learned long ago trying to have a discussion with someone that takes comments agreeing with them as arguments is a pointless effort.

you obviously are not following what i said, someone else said the chip situation is improving and it’s the same people that have said for the last two years that “the chip shortage would end next quarter”, and it’s been bs the whole time! I said it would be 3 to five years and I am not wrong...

I’m not the one that said industry leaders were making promises and I know chios come from Taiwan, but it sounds like you are clueless about about how we get them. Supply is limited and the additional fab capacity isn’t about new tech libs, it’s about capacity and non reliance on constrained...

They are saying the exact same thing they have been saying for the last three years, and it’s been be ever since! China has been shut down the last six months. It takes five years and billions of $ to launch new fabs and longer to bring chips into mass production. If that wasn’t true, I have a...

I ordered in October, they had an allocation, kind of fed up with all of it, not sure what to do.

yeah right, they aren’t getting chips for years, I’m in the industry. My dealer just told me today they were informed they wont be building their alllcations this year at all now and are refunding me my deposit.

Yes, dealer just told me, after the Ford guys at the Ford Nationals said I’d probably get my truck this year :( This really sucks!!! I want a new Raptor :(

Was just told they are not building my October order this year, there are no chips, so they are refunding my deposit

lol, yes they look badass to me on the whole truck view, much better than solid flaps which remind me of old timers trucks ;)

That’s Vortex on my Gen1, will be on my Gen3, too. Looks even better on full view of the Raptor.

Whatever you want to call them, they were at the Ford Nationals with a Bronco Raptor and a F150 Raptor. Lead engineer and the vips of the team responsible for Raptors. I talked with all of them trying to get info on my order and the state of chip and part supplies!

I put Vortex on my Gen1 and will put them on my Gen3. They look badass!

I literally just spoke in person with the SVT team yesterday and they said all Raptor lines will be shut down in July!

and that fab won't be doing all automotive chips, and I also bet it won't be in full production for a few more years after that date. It takes $ billions and 5 to 10 years to get them into full production.

That's hilarious, it takes many $ billions and 5 to 10 years to build fabs and get them into full production! Where exactly do you think this fab capacity exists today? The answer is nowhere in the US! The GF US fabs that were put back on line are doing mostly chips for the government.

I'd rather get the options whenever chips arrive

Except some of those modules will be nothing more than socketed chips...

I was told it is a different tailgate without the applique. It should have the Raptor logo similar to the Gen1, and no holes where the applique attaches

Again, that does not mean the dealer doesn't have an allocation. I ordered in October, was told in december allocations are scheduled by region and dealer size, and have since heard the same thing elsewhere. I am getting my delaer's only allocation. We are supposed to get scheduled next month...

Lol, they are barely getting chips and parts for 5 raptors a month out of the entire factory... I ordered in October, still not shechduled and yes they have an allocation and it's mine.
