Its all supply and demand... the biggest demand was and still is a full 4dr cab... its just not in Ford's best interest to build a super-cab for a small percentage...you have to remember, ford has to pay the engineers to design it, machinists to manufacture the stamping dies to stamp the sheer...
I was seriously considering a ZR2 before my RR order... The 23 Colorado had a fair share of issues, dead batteries caused by OTA update stuck in a loop, roofs getting dented from car washes...infotainment issues... not to mention the RR fits in my garage near perfectly ( with a stubby antenna )...
Good luck with them... i hope they work for you, but i wouldn't rely on them to take full weight...the sliders probably wont give but the sheet metal its mounted to will most likely crumple under the weight, again i really hope they work for you.
No... I do feel lucky, some guys here have been in the waiting game for over a year, with some giving up all together... My build got pushed back and a another truck basically fell in my lap I consider that luck...
Hi everybody,
So, I had A Raptor on order from my dealer placed in early June... I was doing daily checks on its status when I noticed that the " in production " date changed from the week of Aug 13 to the end of Sept...So, I called my salesman and asked him what was up and of course he had no...
I placed my order June 10, got my confirmation same day and had my build date 3 days later... I did place my order with the largest Ford dealer in the US... And my salesman had a allotment...I don't know if that has had any affect on my order, but time will tell... counting down the days...
My dealer had a allocation for a RR and I grabbed it up... I've been keeping an eye on the pizza tracker and my production date has not changed ( week of Aug 12 ) fingers crossed... I went wit the standard wheels, mud flaps and SIB... it also helps i only live about 20 min from the plant, so no...
I know it's no consolation, where I work Ford rents a large lot to store Rangers and Broncos (within 5 miles of MAP) When i got to work this past Friday this lot was nearly full... come Monday nearly empty... Ford is moving product now...hopefully those delays you guys had are long in the past...
I ordered cactus grey... I likes the fact that it changes shades depending on how/where you look at it... and I wanted something of a different color... I'm currently in a Silver 4Runner, but i've had blue, red, old man tan, and black, so this will be a new color.
I feel ya... I live within 15 min of MAP and I deliver tires to the sub-assembly plants near MAP... I think it may be with the holiday... And may also be a logistics glitch, in-between rail and convoy alot can happen...I hope you get your new truck soon!
Hi guys... been lurking on the forums for awhile, but i put my deposit down on my RR...counting down the days...My dealer informed me delivery will most likely be end of Aug or beginning of Sept...counting down the days...
