    Exhausted But Committed

    It is only a matter of time until dealerships are antiquated. The Telsa model will become the dominant one the market will use over time. No dealership necessary. Order online, delivery at your door. The current environment with the R just further adds to this happening. Ford suing dealerships...

    Official 2023 Raptor R Order Thread

    I have read the 2300 number as "wave 1" somewhere on this forum. I have no idea if true or not. I'm pretty sure Ford doesn't even know yet either what they can produce for entire year. My assumption they are being modest after the bronco rollout failure. Those with orders submitted yet no...

My dealer I went with said they got 1 allocation that was already sold, but that I would be next if they happened got another one. They went ahead and submitted an order for...
