firecadet613 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Do you happen to know the 2018MY final order date for regular, non fleet orders? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzymoomoo Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Do you happen to know the 2018MY final order date for regular, non fleet orders? Probably the same day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice-capades Posted January 22, 2018 Author Share Posted January 22, 2018 Do you happen to know the 2018MY final order date for regular, non fleet orders? Cut off date for non-Fleet orders is usually the same as the "Last Day to Spec Change" but retail orders should be placed well before then as commodities can and do "balance out" early.

ice-capades Posted February 10, 2018 Author Share Posted February 10, 2018 Our dealership was told that we'd only get allocation for (4) 2018 F-150 Raptor's. We just received our 4th 2018 Raptor and were just informed that we'd get 4 additional 2018 Raptor's for the 2018 Model Year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are other dealerships not taking their allocation or is Ford upping production of them that much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzymoomoo Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Are other dealerships not taking their allocation or is Ford upping production of them that much? I think Ford is just producing that many right now. The dealer down the road from me has 4 sitting right up front right now that were delivered this week. Parked next to an EcoSport ?. Thing looks especially tiny compared to the giant trucks ?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw my first EcoSport commercial the other day. It was in white and I actually thought it looked pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MKX1960 Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Think they will add ambient lighting back I was doing some reading on F-150 forum and someone figured out how to get multi-color adjustable ambient lighting in the 18's. You need to use forscan and change a code that will bring the ambient lighting tab onto the Sync screen. You then need to change out all of the individual light modules with 2017 parts and they will function as they did in the past. Someone mentioned the total cost at $300. A lot of money, but a lot of angry F-150 owners over there. I thought I was the only one that passionate about this feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbone Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Yes, it was a stupid thing to cut since it such visual feature within the truck and not a costly option for an oem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for posting the guide. I am ready to order a 19 Raptor. Do you know if the Recaro seats on the 60R - raptor blue accent package are heated and cooled and electric. It does not give a lot of details and calls those features out in the two other seat options.

akirby Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 They don’t look ventilated so I would have to guess they are heated only and probably electric, but that’s just a guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
