Jan/Feb Ranger Raptor Blend Date Still Waiting

[CRNEIT0]

Just trying to get a feel for how many folks there are out there still waiting for their truck with Jan/Feb blend dates. Mine was Feb 13 and crickets. Dealer is getting nothing from their rep. Anyone have any insite into this issue? Any idea who, if anyone, I can contact (Ford) to get some help?

Mine is a Lariat
Blend date 2/01
Last update 4/05
Still in production
142 days sitting in a parking lot.

I abandoned my order 5/31 when I found a build that was close enough.
Lariat find is way easier than a Raptor

Man that's a long wait! Hang in. The Ranger Raptor is worth it! I have had over 20 vehicles and it's my favorite so far for price and expectations. For what it's worth I had similar dates and took delivery of mine in April. So I feel lucky. I guess.

5/6 blend date; 5/11 build; 5/16 hold. Still on hold. Found another XLT in azure gray tri-coat FX4, Advance Towing w/into tech. Almost exactly to my build. Bought it. You can find XLT FX4s now on lots increasing. I really believe the units on undefined holds with no updates are never going to be delivered. Glad I gave up on the order and moved on.

Finally got my email today that it is “Built”. Been sitting “in production” since January 19th.

Thanks. Glad to hear they are still shipping the early year builds; haven't noticed any "built" threads with these blend dates in a while. You'll have to let me know if everything is OK with your truck at delivery.

Blend date was 3/11, dealer heard from zone rep that it wouldn't be delivered until August. I gave up and found another one yesterday.

I'm still waiting as well.

My details:
Build: RR in carbonized grey; only option was door keypad
Ordered: 07/03/2023
In Production: 03/06/2024

I also heard crickets for a couple of months but recently the Last Updated date has changed twice. Once (5/20/2024) to go offsite which dealer confirmed via GPS showing up at 38500 Van Born Rd, Wayne, MI., and a second time on 6/6/24, showing up at Ramp 59. It has also moved and gotten closer to the railway at Ramp 59, so I'm hoping she actually ships soon.

My question is, does anyone have a clue what the offsite location is?!? It looks like a distribution center to me; I really hope someone wasn't taking it to run errands.

Agreed, @Nathaneng12 definitely let us know how your delivery goes. I really hope ours aren't like some the one that showed up with tons of rust on the underbody. It would be interesting to know your mileage at delivery as well.

My ist order went into production Jan 24th. It sat there over 4 months. I ordered a 2.7 on May 28th. The 1st one then showed up at the dealer around June 10th. It had 63 miles on it when it showed up at the dealer. I have no idea what quality you can check within 63 miles that would take 4+ months.

That's super strange... maybe it might be worth your while to look and see what's available now.

My build date was 1/30 and blend was 2/6. Delivered on 4/26 and I picked it up on 5/9 it had 43 miles on it. I still went through with the purchase. (Not a special order - retail order Ranger Raptor)

 

[CRNEIT0]

I've been looking for one in stock within a reasonable distance, nothing yet. Probably show up the day I pull the trigger on something else.

Does anyone have any ideas of what caused the delays? I'm looking at a truck with a 01/28 build date, that was just released at the end of June. Seems like a long time to sit around. Looking on Oasis, I see some vehicle activity in April in terms of software checks, but other than that, nada. It is the spec I want, but over MSRP which around here is the norm. In comparing to some other trucks that have a much more recent build date, the only thing difference is the engine block heater, graphics package, and cargo rail system.

The network had a cyber attack don't know if that affected anything.

Blend date 6/13/24 but ford has lost the vehicle as far as I can tell. Was supposed to be at the dealer between 6/27/24 and 7/3/24. Neither my dealer nor ford know where the truck is. I'm less than 60 miles from MAP
