    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...

    R Update for 2024

    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…

    Looking for Raptor R - Will pay $150k

    Agreed! They are nice. If you’ve got it, enjoy it. If you don’t, work harder and get it!

    When will they be available at MSRP?

    That sounds interesting. I imagine if they can get the suspension parts, they should be able to roll out about as many as they did GT500’s based on the Engine Manufacturing alone. That was at least 3,500 to 4,000 units per year…. Not too bad.

    Tough decision: Black 37 Raptor Available now vs wait for Anti matter blue

    Man that is sweet! I was in the exact situation. I took the Black 37. The AMB 37 that I ordered has still never been built almost 2 years after I ordered it. My dealer received allocations for two R’s and let me spec one. The R was built on 12-22-22, but Ford STILL hasn’t shipped it. I...

    When will they be available at MSRP?

    Did the dealer say 6-7K Raptors, or Raptor R’s?

    Any chance the Raptor R will have production deletes?

    Mine had the heated steering wheel and advanced security system removed from the factory, but they added a $50 first aid kit…. Mine was built on 12-22-22, but it hasn’t shipped yet. I’m pretty excited that its likely been sitting outside for the Winter Storm…

    Who buys a raptor R?

    I own two small businesses and work my ass off. I put all of my time into my companies and didn’t have kids until I was 38. I have an R coming in soon. I’ve owned a few Lariats, a 2011 Harley F150, a Platinum F150, then the Raptors. I had a loaded 2014 Raptor, then a 2017 Raptor, and now a 2021...

    Its coming!

    On 12/15/2022 I received that message about the parts delay. Mine was originally scheduled to be built on 12/5/2022. I received an email that said this yesterday: Great news! Your 2023 F-150 RAPTOR™ SuperCrew has been built. We are performing some final inspections on your vehicle and getting...

    22 37p available info attached

    Yeah, don’t worry. This person thinks Ford builds and controls the ability to build all of these parts themselves. If Fox had the production capacity of Ford, there would be more Raptors. Most people understand that the higher end trims have specialized components built by specialists. Ford...
