Just checking on if anyone has any new information about their orders??
I was given a vin and a pin number to go online and follow it. At first it said no info but now it says in Production, can take a few days, then it has shipping, delivery and ready at the dealership.

They have all the materials and have started the build process, painting, frame and powertrain assembly etc, should take around 4-5 factory days before the blend occurs where the chassis and body meet on the assembly line. give it another 5 days or so for final assembly and QC. Check your sticker for the scheduled blend date it's on the top.

1600 miles so far, still fun to drive :cool: I had to take it back for a torn boot on the right front axle, they're going to replace the whole shaft.

Is there a trick for deciphering the blend date? My Raptor R has this as the blend date: 220221031. I'd assume 10/31/22 was the blend date, but don't understand what the first 2 is in the string of numbers.

Ok and how in the world did you figure out that blend date, impressive ! ? Lol So my blend date is 320221130. So that’s the blend date of November 30th 2022? I guess? And if that blend occurs at that date how long after did you receive your next notice and which or what did you receive and when ? I guess “Built” then “Shipped” and how long did all that process take? Sorry for all this if you remember.

So you had that for a blend date of 10/31/22 and are still waiting? Or do you have a “Built” email sent? Also are those pictures you posted of the silver custom Bronco, was that a Raptor?

That’s for my Raptor R. It has shown in production since 11/1. I’m guessing it’s mostly built but probably waiting on a computer chip.

You’re going to have to send me some pics of these accessories you have. Man I need some good ideas. And can you still take the doors off the Raptor with the roof top tent?
I’ll post some pics of Broncos on my Vendor section. Custom Performance Center. I’ll let you know when they are up.

With the rooftops tent I think it would be tough to remove the roof panels but I will try to confirm that for you.

Perfect !! Sorry man I’ve done some things to “side by sides” but nothing like this before. Not to much to look at or ideasin my area. What or how do I go to your “vendor section? Wow just saw you’re in Houston! That’s where I purchased and will be picking up my Raptor when ready. Very cool. Yes I could use some help

Very cool you are getting it here in Houston. Here’s the link to my vendor section. I haven’t had much time to set it up yet but I’ll try and do so in the next day or two.

Mine has been built for almost a month. Just been sitting at michigan assembly plant awaiting transportation. Delivery date has been pushed 4 times now. Supposedly they are having shipping issues. I'm only 2 hours from the plant and they can't seem to figure it out.

The tracking links don't update very quickly the best way to find status is to call ford marketing or ford performance and they can see what the current status is.

Thanks. I think the first Raptor R just shipped, and it's going to Arkansas or maybe Alabama. Can't recall which. Either way, that one isn't mine!

I did hear that it's not uncommon for the tracking link to show in production and then the truck pretty much shows up about the time the link shows shipped. I would think it has to be getting ready to ship sometime soon.
