Think about this, how many RRaptor orders do we think Ford will schedule per week? 50? 100? If they sold every allocation per dealer, that’s 2944 as that is the number of dealers Google says exists. If it’s 50 per week, that’s 58 weeks to build them all. At 100 per week, that’s still over 6 months & who said they were all going to be built in Job 1? We’re all in for a long wait & if the UAW strikes, well, I guess we’ll all be getting 2025 models!!

If you go back through some of these threads there’s already been some speculation. At full capacity they could build all 3,000 of the first batch in a couple weeks. Since they’re only scheduling Raptors at the moments, it won’t take long for them to burn though the initial orders.

It does not. Scheduling is done on Thursday, and barring any email system delays the emails are out by end of day Thursday.. with some carrying over to Friday if the Ford email system is running slow.

If you don't have an email yesterday or today... you're not scheduled (or, the dealer hosed up adding your email address to the order).
I've seen with Bronco scheduling that the Thursday emails can take as long as until Monday for some to receive, for what ever delays it may encounter. There were some that even had the emails end up in their spam or junk folders.

I think that’s wishful thinking & it will all depend on parts availability & sharing the line with the Bronco’s & add in XL’s, XLT’s & Lariat’s & I just don’t see this happening very quickly. I hope I’m wrong. Also, congrats on getting your build date & VIN.

I believe in an absolutely perfect scenario that they could actually build 3,000 units in just a few days.

The initial ramp up would not look that impressive but if the assembly line was in full swing supposedly every 60 seconds a finished unit is rolling off the line.

Supposedly.

Also again in a perfect world where all 3,000 units had parts sitting at their stations ready to go. And they ran 24 hours a day. And they had no tooling breakdown and need to be swapped out of repaired. And every worker on the line was on their a game and not coming down with a case of diarrhea from over drinking the night before.

Got mine. Build week 9/25. Stock order priority code 01. White, graphics and spray in liner.
Hi, congrats on the order! Could you clarify something for me please.You mention "stock order priority code 01." So this was a stock order (not retail) and you got notification from the dealer today? Thanks.

That’s correct. Close connection w local dealer. Manager put the order in as stock originally and didn’t want to change it to cause confusion. Got notification and screen shots from dealer in house computer of order submission, build date and vin.

Dealer told me that scheduling should continue for several weeks for Job #1. They have no idea why this is the case but according to them maverick jobs have been equally sporadic to schedule. Is this everyone's first time ordering a vehicle? Just be patient, we will all get our trucks.

Same with mine. I know I have my only dealers allocation and still no build date email.

Same with me, I have their only allocation at MSRP but no build date yet. Was somewhat disappointed last Thursday but I know that I wasn’t alone in that!!?

Likely months.. no vehicle does their entire scheduling for an entire production cycle in one week... Maverick scheduling isn't "sporadic".. it's mainly the first week of the month when dealers have allocations, and then cleanup the next 3 weeks to fill in holes with what is available..

Kinda sounds like your dealer doesn't know how scheduling actually works, or at least, knows less than anyone who'd been following a Bronco or Maverick through the process..

I’m in the same boat and according to the Poll that is being taken on this forum the vast majority of people, at least on here, have not gotten scheduled yet. This forum is just a small sampling, but we could probably assume the same outcomes generally across all Ranger Raptor orders that most have not been scheduled yet. Who knows if there was any rhyme or reason to who got picked last Thursday or was it just completely random. I’m a priority 10 (my dealer’s only order) I know some people on here said they were priority 1s and 3s maybe those dealers got pulled first? Who knows… but I think more scheduling will continue and that they’re not close to being done with job 1 yet. Maybe just starting out slowly and fix their past mistakes.

IDK man my dealer is pretty on the up and up and very communicative, they definently know what they are doing and how scheduling works. Mav scheduling is sporadic, as you stated in your explanation of how the scheduling has been after denying that it is sporadic.

I'm in Detroit Zone #2, I should hear something in the next couple weeks (yay/nay). I'll update if I get any relevant communication. My sales guy is keeping an eye on the previews for the next couple weeks until my Raptor get scheduled. If it does't happen, oh well, job #2 will probably be of higher quality anyway.
