I’ve come across these. Certainly not inexpensive but kind of cool.

I’m curious if they’ll produce them for 6g rangers and how well they handle actual rock slider duties.

Those are nice would not mind dropping the scratch if they make for the 6g

Anyone get a raptor scheduled yet?

Does anyone know what is expected if you don’t get scheduled today? Is it something I need to look for in my inbox throughout the week or does it only happen today?

Just got a call from the dealership, they said since I had the FX4 package but no running boards, Ford told them I had to either add running boards ($700 upcharge) or remove FX4 before I could get scheduled

If you do not like them when the truck arrives take them off and sell them there is always some else who will.

Scole31, on the first RR scheduling, I believe I read some trickeled in throughout the day and even (I think) into Friday. Other then that, check scheduling every Thursday.

I think scheduling is on Thursday's so potentially the next week and so on.

THAT is the million dollar question! I just came back from a nieghbors that I have been talking to over the last few weeks as we both want a Ranger. Surprisingly, he had five exact orders placed with five different dealers for an XLT. He did get scheduled today by one dealer. The other four, nothing. I looked over his order/build sheets. All priority 10, and the orders/options are exact. I did not pay that much attention, but I think he told me they are all within a 75 mile radius. The only thing I can think of the dealer he got scheduled through was the largest. Other than that, no clue.

That dealer probably just had allocation. I have a small dealer, and they didn't get any allocation for Rangers yet. I believe allocation is prioritized based off sales for that specific vehicle line.

yeah that's the plan unless my wife decides she needs them. i was just unsure how well they would re-sell and how much less i'd get for them compared to the $700 they cost.

 

[RapVillin]

So no raptors scheduled today? Curious if the availability is really that limited

Is it possible this is incorrect information? I just ran a Lariat FX4 B&P it did not "require" running boards to be added. If that were the case should not one of the running board boxes also automaticallly fill? I got a standard 4x4, so, as usual, I could be wrong.

I'm not sure how it would be incorrect information when Ford specifically emailed them about it, and my order wasn't scheduled while that configuration was in place. The B&P doesn't enforce it, but that could be an oversight or a recent change to the configuration that hasn't been pushed up to production yet.

Unless someone here can confirm they have the same configuration FX4, without the steps, and they get scheduled, I'm going to trust my dealer on this. I had already received the email that my order was in the system weeks ago, so after that point it's in Ford's hands and it isn't just my dealership jacking up the price before they input me into the queue.

Maybe that is what is being scheduled FX4 with boards????
It does not mean required for FX4 package.

Then why would they bother emailing the dealership and saying I need to either drop the FX4 or add the running boards? If they were only scheduling those, they likely wouldn't bother emailing the dealership and just push my order out to a later date.

We already know there are very low numbers of orders in the system, it isn't like they are strapped for time with scheduling these things. More likely just an oversight in the build & price tool. It sucks that I've got to add-on a feature I don't want but it's either that or be like the Bronco people still waiting for their vehicle 2 years after they ordered it.
