Congratulations!! Just to hear anything is good news right now. Keep us updated

Congratulations. When did you order yours?

March 17th I believe. My order went in the day it opened. I have a good friend that is the GSM at my local Ford dealership. And I have a business relationship with them as well so that doesn’t hurt.

Until I am told my Raptor will be at the dealership on XX day I don't believe anything Ford says. Unless I quite my job, and start up a Youtube channel, and start calling myself an "influencer", I am not going to get my order filled. This is an absolute farce if you ask me, I say that only because once the truck is built there's a good chance it ends up in purgatory aka a Ford dirt mountain parking lot. Many a new rigs are stuck allegedly waiting on a "chip" or a driver and truck to deliver it to a dealer.
My rocket scientist masquerading as Ford dealer tried to tell me that my bronco might get stuck at the port of Oakland CA waiting on a driver and truck to deliver to the dealer . Now I find that hard to believe being the last time I looked at a map Michigan to California had a land mass between them. However, I digress nothing Ford does shocks me anymore. As I said until I get a call saying I can take pick my Bronco up on XX date this is just Ford Catfishing all of us.

Can't disagree with you at all! Extremely frustrating for all. That's insane to see your timestamp date being almost 2 years ago! Unfortunately the reality we are in gives no hope that it you will have your BRap this year (as you stated). I don't think it just Ford in the situation either because we are seeing the same situation across all our forums about the pushbacks of all vehicles

I have a Day One timestap too -- July 13, 2020. And now an August 1, 2022 BRAptor Email build date. We shall see.

It’s not just cars and trucks , I can’t get windows , appliances to finish homes I‘m building . Problem is America shipped all our plants to build things out of Country ! We are screwed if a war breaks out and we need to build weapons .

A good friend at the dealership should be a good thing. My dealership has “0” information knows nothing at all

Reminds me of when customers go into Apple and ask the people working what the new iPhone is gonna be like. Every answer is "I know as much as you!"

I wouldn't mind the waiting if they would communicate better.....

I think that is a lot of people as well. Ford apparently not good at keeping anyone in the loop about all their vehicle orders. I've talked to numerous people that ordered the Lightning the day of or right after they opened the reservation and they have yet to hear a thing about whats happening, myself included. Like you said, just keep everyone updated every week or 2 so we know what to expect. Pretty frustrating

Yep a little more communication would be very nice.

There’s something . Give your customers an honest update every couple of weeks

While it would be nice of Ford to provide even a monthly update, that requires work and a minimal effort. I am not sure they have the ability or skill to write a three sentence update. They like to spend their time at trade shows looking at new Schwag to give out as a consolation gift. AKA hammock, pictures and other items most of us will never ever use. Giving us an update means we are actually having our trucks built. No update means no truck
