Rapid Red FE here as well and no e-mail. Wonder if that color is holding up the program for some of us. I also have a FE Area 51 and no e-mail on that one either though.
My FE reservation has been converted to an order through a dealership that I don't intend to use. They did so without consulting me or with my consent. I called Ford in early and late February to have it converted back to a reservation and change the dealership. The late February call said it...
I think I've settled on Rapid Red with the black interior. I was planning on LB with the navy pier, but I feel like I'm settling doing that. It would be nice to have a better idea when the black interior will be done. I think I like the MIC top a little more since it matches the flares. I...
My desire to keep my FE was quickly fading, but seeing these pics are perking my interest again. I’d love to have a race red to match his stable mate, but rapid red with the black interior should do. I think I’ll get a better resale or trade in towards a Warthog when/if that comes out.
I completely changed my plans for the FE due to these delay's. I was going to buy in the lower 48 and drive to Alaska, but now with too many possibilities of more delay's, I went ahead and switched to my local dealer. Now I just hope they keep the FE's first, and don't forget about us up here...
I'm hoping the tow package will be standard on the 4 door. With the black interior, I've decided to go with rapid red instead of lightning blue. Not too worried about the MIC top since I'll have it off most of the time anyhow. Are you able to hold off on the FE delivery for the black top? I...
2,340mi (Gresham, OR to Fairbanks, AK)
This may be where I end up, but not sure. Original plan was to purchase from Gresham Ford in Oregon and drive it to Las Vegas, but instead we may end up having to drive it back north to Alaska. It may be easier at this point to switch to a local dealer...
If all are considered 2021, then just 3% of them are First Editions. That's not too bad of a number and makes me feel a little better about the 7,000 units versus 3,500. At this point it almost seems like Ford should call the FE's 2021 and everything else would be a 2022. That could help it's...
I did the home theater thing as well. I have a 7.2.4 ATMOS system which is all Klipsch. The screen is 138". I still have a bit of work to do on it, but it has been a fun project, and well worth the investment.
I also hunt, fish, dipnet, hike, go offroading, boating, and RV'ing.
Red is the only option I'm interested in for my FE. I'm pretty nervous about the clashing interior, especially when doors are off. I really hope Ford considers an option that flows better. I've never been much of a fan for brown leather interiors either, so I'm a black and/or grey fan.

I'm having a dilemma on following through on my FE order. I was hoping for more exterior color choices, and definitely having a choice of a color that wouldn't be available with any other model. The family agreed on the Rapid Red for our 4 door, but was really hoping for a race...
I reserved the FE 4 door, but was disappointed with the lack of exterior color options, especially since all of them are available with the other trims. Once I saw them double the number, my excitement dropped even more. I really wanted race red, so I will hold out until the order banks open...
