Priority 1 Bronco Raptor order -- how long from scheduling to shipped to the dealer?

[MJJ]

Thanks to a very nice forum member, I was given a lead on a Bronco Raptor that the dealer had been given an allocation. I signed the purchase agreement this week and they sent me the details on the order. It shows a Priority 1 on the sheet.

Anybody have an educated guess how long this might take from getting scheduled to shipped to the dealer in Wisconsin? I have read something recently about chips becoming a problem again.

I recently cancelled a 2.5yr reservation due to Ford instructing us to drop (Sasquatch, MIC and Lux) to have a chance at getting a Bronco. I am hoping this goes much faster….

Priority 1 basically means it is eligible to be picked for scheduling. A host of other factors come into play, dealer allocation, and for Raptor if there are other Raptors that have been allocated and perhaps sitting longer. Priority 1 can only be assigned by the factory/corporate, most dealers have wised up and put everything in as a 10 (vs 19) since that's the best code they can give. Alot will depend on what your dealer already has in backlog and what Ford is trying to get out the door. Unfortunately I've already been down this road, mine was built and stolen by the dealer and now I'm back to waiting again with a Priority 1 code - I'm on month 3 of that.

Dang - I was hoping for a more optimistic answer but I do appreciate the realistic expectations.

Guess I have no excuse now that I don’t have time to clean the garage, lose weight, etc..

Congrats on finding one with allocation! Hope you got a good price too. When I was talking with dealers I couldn't find any with allocation that would go less than $10k over sticker.

It wasn’t the deal you got but better than the alternatives by a fair margin. . I have been impressed with the dealership. Good folks who have been straight forward. i am happy with my decision.

Should post that dealer so people know where to go.

That's the key these days. Take what you're happy with. Having trust in your dealer has a lot of value. Hope your wait isn't too long. Mine is showing unscheduled clean so hopefully will be picked up soon.
