Well there you go, I was curious about the other guy though that wasn't sure which MY his would be.

I confirmed with my dealer yesterday that mine will be a 2024.

Confirmed it’s a 23. Keeping my fingers crossed that there isn’t a strike and everything gets resolved quickly.

Good deal, hopefully everything goes smoothly

Congrats. Did you get a scheduled build week?

Yes, scheduled for the first week of October, so I’m cutting it close to the end of the year. A little nervous because of the strike talks.

I'm scheduled for 9/18 @Breptar . If the strike hits Ford, I'll be in significant jeopardy for not getting a '23. If the strike hits, I'm hoping that the lines would pick up where the left off rather than skipping a period of production. That seems more logical and likely, but it's also a lot of optimism...

What is your build?

Your screen name is my plate lol

@swamp2 i went with black exterior, blue onyx interior with orange seatbelts, lux package, and carbon fiber package. I think I checked every box but the graphics package. Originally I went with the non beadlock capable wheels, but I had to upgrade to the beadlock capable wheels to submit my order. I’ll keep my fingers crossed that it gets here soon.

@350vudu nice, hoping it’s still available in Texas by the time my order is delivered.

Nice build @Breptar , loaded. Mines the opposite, just orange belts.

Why that plate @350vudu ? No "Braptor" available?

BRAPTOR was already taken by @Cactus Jack so BREPTAR was my second choice. Reptar is a fictional dinosaur from the kids cartoon Rugrats.

@swamp2 reptar is a dinosaur character from a childhood cartoon that I thought suited the braptor well. My guess is @350vudu probably grew up around the same time I did.

Ha, Rugrats, "old man" out here on that one.

Your build matches mine.

I had ordered a Hot Pepper Red with black interior and no CF or Seatbelts or beadlocks. Then the dealer offered me a Black one with Blue interior, Code Orange belts, CF & Beadlocks that was already scheduled for Feb. I took it as I didn't have confidence the HPR one would get scheduled and I'm glad I did. Have really been liking it since I got it back in March (it sat a bit with status of In Production before finally shipping out to them).
