No Raptor for you

[luvmybronco]

Wait so you didn't have a GT/2022 Allocation and were banking on your dealership getting more allocations and now you're upset they didn't so you can't convert to a Raptor? Is that what this is?

Dealer "thought" they'd get more. They didn't. I mean Ford has botched a bunch of things on this whole process but not giving your dealer what they had promised to you isn't really on Ford, that's your dealer over promising.

It sucks you've waited this long, I'm not trying to diminish that.

I've got the Raptor order and confirmation from Ford, but it's getting taken away

I have a 2022 allocation and it rolled over into 2023.

You better check with your dealer.

do this .. goto ford performance chat and give them your dealer code and order number .. if they tell you your order is unscheduled and clean then your allocation rolled over

yes

They are guaranteed 1 allocation for 23 I thought - also it sounds like your dealer committed to giving you a car they didn't have. I think your issue is with them and not Ford. It sounds like none of the 3 "unused" allocations were ever converted into your name...if they had been you'd have an actual order. I was not a GT holder, I was an extra...I did NOT get scheduled in 22 but I HAD a Raptor order at this point. I got pushed to 23 and I am now scheduled. This really sounds like a false promise from the dealer and they got their hand slapped from the cookie jar - sorry this happened to you.

Dealer thinking Ford will do is different from Ford saying/writing in black and white that they will do. i guess it is high time that you stop waiting and go and buy a bronco which is available or place an order with another dealer. If you want to know big dealers in your area, it is easy to get that list from internet.
Bronco raptor will be a difficult one to get because of the demand. but there r people flipping it.

I agree 100%. The reservation for for the 2021 OG models. Not the Heritage or Raptors.

I gave up my original 2021 order to get a Raptor and get in the back of the line for one, but there isn't a line for me to be in. Now, I'm hearing the the reservation program is ending next month. At least I can go back to my original order but still will probably be late next year by the time I get a 2 door BadSas.

Here are the facts if anyone cares ... If you actually had an 2022 GT/Allocation and was not scheduled in 2022 and then it automatically rollover into 2023. Below is a text from my salesman received 5 mins ago:

You're right, I shouldn't have used "Unused" in original post, they were used. The 2022 Raptor allocation orders are getting built for 2023, MY Dealer thought they were getting an additional 3 allocations for 2023 so they put my Raptor order in, I received confirmation email and order email from Ford. I guess it's just going to go back to my original order

yeah, That's why I was hoping to get one. I wasn't going to flip, I just wanted a Raptor. I'll go back to my original order and hopefully get a Raptor later down the road.

For 2022 Raptors we were allocated I believe 14 Raptors. We did not take delivery of 14 Raptors. When 2023 ordering began, we thought, incorrectly I might add, based on the chart we saw from Ford, that we had 3 from 2022 that would roll over and add to our 3 that were earned for 2023. We took Raptor orders. Ford did not roll over the 3 from 2022. Therefore, some customers lost their ability to receive Raptors.

2022 Raptor orders were based on “hand raising” with Ford. 2023 Raptor orders are at the discretion of the dealer. Because we *thought* we would have three rollovers, and we thought we would earn additional based on 2023 sales, we took more orders for Raptors than what the allocation turned out to be. It was a bad assessment of the situation on our part and one that we regret, however, the bottom line is, we’re limited in the number we’ll be given, therefore, some of those orders we took are not going to get a Raptor.

That sucks man. Sounds like a huge miscommunication. Hopefully you can convert back to your previous order, or I guess wait in line to see if they get more allocations the second half the year or 2024.

Thanks for clarifying John. Wasn't trying to bash your dealership, you guys have been great and honored your pricing, Just ranting over a disappointment after a long wait.

I can convert back to my previous order. I was just excited about cookies and cream and now just getting vanilla. lol

Enjoy the vanilla and get the cookies and cream later. When there isn't the $30k markup for the cookies and cream.

Also edit the thread title to be less hostile to Ford.

Ford: "I have altered the allocation formula. Pray I do not alter it further."

If you had the 7MT Two Door Badlands on order then I would confirm that is Cookies and Cream territory.

I got the two door Badlands 7MT and couldn't be happier. (well if Ford offered a 2.7 with the MT then I could be a little bit happier. Oh and if they offered a 3.0 with the 7MT then I might have a slightly bigger grin.) Very happy with the 2 door and the 7MT.
