Just got the call from the dealer that my First Edition won't be built despite getting a VIN earlier this year. I'm told Ford gave the dealer 3 options for me 1. To be first in line for a MY22 (not FE). 2. To be first in line for a Raptor for which there are 0 details, or 3. Cancel all together.


Needless to say as a first day reservation holder for my FE I'm disappointed as last I heard my Bronco would be delivered in November. Heck, I've even been driving by the dealership to see if it arrived early.


What would y'all do if put in my shoes? I'm told I have until Friday.

That sucks. If you can wait, Raptor. If you hate it, you won't have any trouble selling it. If you can't wait, get a loaded Badlands or Wildtrak in early 22. If you're fed up with Ford, peace out.

Raptor with a signed, sealed, delivered letter from your dealer as to the pricing you will receive. Without this, escalate to Ford direct. With this, go grab a beer and wait, like the rest of us, unfortunately.

Damn, what happened?

If you want the bronco, stick with a 22 place in line I suppose

Yeah, you don't know enough about a raptor to make a great decision there, can't assume its a better situation for you just because it is limited unless you do a buy/sell out of aggravation

That is very disheartening to be thinking you were so close and get that call. Sucks to hear.

Many of us are in the same boat. I started age cancelled with raptor thread in the raptor area.

I and three others at my dealer have raptor reservations now, for what it is worth, but I was able to score a FE off eBay for private ADM.

Interesting that you just got word of this, and Friday might be the cutoff to retain for “reservation” spot.

Exactly this.

If they don’t need the vehicle, go for a Raptor it is probably a better deal anyway. If they need one soon, get the BL or WT - very simple. It depends on their situation.

If I didn’t need a car I’d wait for the Raptor.

I would call Ford to check that information first hand then take a decision based on that information.

I know it another several months wait but if you can do it - RAPTOR!
