I grew up in WV along the Ohio river (near Point Pleasant.. home of the MOTHMAN!). I'm in Central Ohio now. Where along the Ohio are you?
I am over East near Marietta / Parkersburg. I did live in Columbus for almost 4 years back in the 1990's - in the Canton area prior to that.

Hah.. then you know exactly where Point Pleasant is. I visit Parkersburg quite a bit to go shopping with the girlfriend. Small world.

What does Blending mean? also what does it mean "Previewing"
Previewing means the vehicle is in the final factory scheduling process. Blend date indicates when the body and frame meet up and the components are starting to be assembled on it down the line. Today, I got an updated list of “as built” modules that are assigned to my truck and a photo showed up on my Ford Pass app. Usually, you’ll be able to view your window sticker about the same time that your blend date is confirmed. Hope you have smooth sailing In this process!

Here’s a few more pics of anyone is interested. I am glad to see that the securicode panel is body color.

Well well well, I went from Hot Pepper Red on my 2019, back to white on this new one, but that looks NICE...I noticed the other 2 on the carrier were white!

Then we are thinking the same. I wanted a darker paint but didn't want Black. I do like the blue just not enough to ride around in it all the time. Also, it's funny that you said Darth Vader might drive something in this color. I guess I named it right in the Ford Pass app.

Pretty much the same here. I liked the black but had a black car the last almost 18 yrs. So wanted something a little lighter. Seeing some of the blue vehicles I do like them more than i thought i would. Hoping the CG looks great in person.

I have a Carbonized Gray 2021 Lariat Ranger at the moment and it's pretty dang nice. It wasn't my first choice to get a raptor in that color but I ended up assuming someones order where they didn't want it anymore and luckily it had a vin and was being built, but that meant I could not change the build at all. None the less it's a very nice color and it has a nice metallic sheen to it.

I love how you throw out there a nonchalant “in case anyone is interested” knowing good and well this forum is starved for any real life Ranger news/pics lol. Congrats on the truck!

Okay, thanks. I guess I'll just have to get into the habit of hitting the button every time I start it up; oh well.

Another question for you:
There has been talk here on the Forum of a "$1,000 Factory Rebate for Pre-Order Customers".
Did you get in on this?

I Saved the link from ford authority when it came out but the link I have is no longer valid. It looks like the maybe Truck would need purchased before June 13 (which mine was) and delivered by Oct 2 as quoted in the article above, that would be absolutely no one who would qualify. To answer your question I did not get a rebate

I put a Bakflip Revolver MX4 on it today. Very nice cover

Is that specifically for the 2024, or is it also for 5g? I'm hoping to transfer mine over!

My dealer is telling me that I will get the $1000 for special ordering.

Yeah pisses me off, I ordered July 2nd to get that. And original build week was 9/18.
And now my $1500 special deal from the auto show will likely expire before I take possession as well :(
Major bummer for sure.
