I'm all good, I ordered a Maverick to tide me over....... (insert HUGE Sarcasm here) bet they show up at the same time. The new production launch date is when my college graduate starts his first job - 7/10. Thus allowing me to pay for said Raptor......
The problem with any color for the Raptor is the "code Orange" interior trim color that I believe is the only interior option. For me that kills an external Red (Redfire/Rapid Red or even Race Red) color because of the "contrast". i wish the interior highlight was subtle like the GT500's dark...
Almost 2 months since i posted this. Certainly there has to be some civilian deliveries that have taken place, we want to know what you think. Please share.
FYI - I went through this in 02 with my 03 Cobra and waiting on info, same with my 2020 Shelby GT500. Tom Petty was right - "The...
I'll pass on a Subie. Ford will have enough production experience on the RR when it comes to US shores. Same drive train in Bronco Raptor and enough builds (globally) to sort out key maladies. I bought a 2020 Shelby GT500 - securing a spot with my dealer (at Sticker) before the launch -...

looking good! Let us know about the transmission "learning". Also - how do you like the contrasting Code Orange accents in the interior. I'm normally a "red" guy for cars but I know I won't like the clash of orange and red. Maybe Blue, Grey, or Iconic Silver. White also an option...
Sport mode in the GT500 has great downshifts and is very intuitive for sporty driving. That is a Dual Clutch, I'm interested to see how a 10 speed handles it. A10 owners with 5.0 GT's seem to be very happy and the torque multiplication due to the gear range is solid.
Yes, FB groups are quite the wormhole. Thanks for sharing your research. A few thoughts on what you've heard.
Glad the ride is good, I won't be hauling much but a$$.
