I’m trying to follow along here. Can you explain what a blend date is and what number on the vin your looking at when you say “upper 300s?” Does that number signify the number of BRaptor you have? Thank you!
The VIN ends in A50xxxx. I guess they started at 0001, but they aren’t being built in order.

Blend date is the actual day it goes down the assembly line.

When I picked up my FE there were 4 sequential vins in a row that came in.

I don't understand how he got a GT when, according to the details in the eBay description, he reserved his original Wildtrak order in Jan '21? My understanding was the GT's went out according to the reservation timestamp. This doesn't make sense unless he got someone else's GT allocation.

This is a high volume dealership that got at least 13 Raptor allocations. He is not a Gt holder nor was I. I bought my Raptor at the same dealership and have the VIN before this one. We both received priority code 1 builds. The owner of the dealership has the VIN before mine. This could have helped us get our builds first, who knows? I had never even ordered a Bronco before and just got lucky to get the first allocation the dealership offered for sale.

I asked chat if I could speak to someone higher up to ask why the Raptors are just sitting around. They just gave me the 800 number to the Bronco new vehicle support team.
Has anyone here called them recently?

I am not sure why you think they would tell a random person on the phone why they are doing what they are doing. I bet most Ford employees don't even know why

I have no faith in any of them knowing.

Honestly,

that was a pretty stripped down Raptor. I suspect that a fully loaded Raptor sold with no miles will sell for a higher percentage above MSRP than that one.
