2025 Order update

[Yonder_MN]

Anyone know what the usual number of units is for a production run for a given week?

I ordered a carbonized gray Ranger Raptor in early November; on 1/16, I finally got an email with a 3/17 production date.

I ordered a Marsh Gray Ranger Raptor with regular wheels, spray-in bed liner, and no graphics pack on 10/17/24 but my build has still not been scheduled. I assume this is because my dealer hasn’t received an allocation.

For those who have had theirs scheduled, how “big” are the dealers you ordered through? Are they notably large volume dealers? Just curious.

The dealer I ordered through is large enough, but definitely not the largest volume dealer in the area. I ordered through them intentionally because I like working with their people more, but I am beginning to regret that decision.

It seems like Ford is having a tough time producing Rangers. I have had my order placed May 4th 2024.... moved it over to a 2025 order and still waiting with no production date.

The difficult part is understanding what may be holding up the order. I have removed the tonneau cover and had to change the color for the 2025 year.

I did speak to my dealer last week and he confirmed that my priority code is 10. It would be fantastic if Ford was more transparent as to the causes of the holdup.

It's highly unlikely it will get built. I did the same thing & my order got canceled when they switch to the 25's.

That allocation system is so stupid. They should build all customers orders first then do stock orders. Keep customers happy and profits go up. Good luck

To clarify, my order is for a MY25 Ranger Raptor, not a 2024. My order was accepted 2 days after the order banks for MY25 Rangers opened.

That doesn't matter. My order was excepted, too. If it wasn't ordered with a allocation, it won't get built.

Fortunately I found one at a dealer (MSRP) last month as I was also playing the waiting game/

In your original comment you referenced your order getting cancelled "when they switch to the 25s". What does that mean? It implies that your order was for a MY24.

It means when ford switched to the 25's they ultimately canceled my order. My point was, I put in a order in Dec of 23 & it was never fulfilled because the dealer didn't use an actual allocation. Ford allows dealers to put orders in but that doesn't mean it will get built (especially with Raptors)

Ordered through a big reputable dealership in the centerish of Dallas. Ordered through phone and got a confirmation relatively quick.

This is my first time ordering a vehicle made to order and was very confused when they were explaining to me the allocations they had. Thankfully it went smooth for me.

Going to place an order for a Velocity Blue tomorrow through one maybe two dealerships, they said they'll do MSRP. First one to take delivery wins haha.

Well, tomorrow is another build scheduling day…

I take it that is a good thing for me. Or would I be too late to the party if the order is placed tomorrow?
