Did the deed a few days ago. I put in for the painted stripes and have my fingers crossed I can get the allocation. If not I plan to switch the color to twister orange with painted black roof.

I'm kinda surprised that you would do the painted black roof and the painted stripes as well. Does your dealer have a Golden Ticket??? If not then we are both in the same boat rowing togethor. I put in for the painted stripes but not the painted roof so we'll see what happens. I really wish there was a way to find out how many orders Ford has received in whole and also how many actually ordered the $10,000 stripes. Don't really understand why its a "State Secret" in all honesty.

I asked the sales manager multiple times about the stripe allocation and he assured me I could get it. That being said it is a smaller volume Shelby dealer but a humongous Raptor volume if that makes any difference to the regional managers.

I decided to also get the painted roof because I fell in love with this car:

Silver and black roof look fantastic.

I am torn between that and Orange with the black roof.

If I can’t get the painted stripe I’m going black roof with twister orange and no vinyl stripe. IMO twister orange is the best color to have if you are going without a stripe.

Is not the "golden Ticket" cars the painted strips AND CFTP ? It would seem if you did not want one of those and just one or the other you should be able to get the vehicle on a regular order ? Or maybe I read it wrong.
Also will note that the "base" car is not so "base" its very nice actually. I'm sure the aftermarket will fill in for those wings and other parts real soon. Grats to all who have secured their orders.

It is either/or/both. Use of either CFTP and/or painted stripes is a golden ticket (geesh, that term still sounds stupid).

No, it will not be made with the painted stripes if it doesnt have the Wonka

WOW, that is truly beautiful. I've decided on the Rapid Red with black stripes. But that silver with those stripes is equally as beautiful.

I couldn't agree more. I LOVE,LOVE,LOVE the silver and black and I debated this color over and over. I happen to have gone silver on my last 3 trucks and due to my current silver 2019 Ranger I decided to sway to the FR Blue. But, man do I love the silver.

Funny I went Rapid red because my F150 is Ruby red and my ranger is red hot Chili pepper so I wanted to stick in Red family.

My 2015 F150 Platinum was Ruby Red lol. I then went to a silver 2017 F250 diesel, then to silver 2018 F150 Platinum and now silver 2019 Ranger Lariat. I have issues........ so I’m told. Love my Ranger, how bout you?

Yes really an awesome around town truck. I ordered it as soon as order banks opened just like GT500, I couldn’t be happier with the ranger I’m sure we will feel same way about GT500

Fellas - enjoy the orders.

Just got final clarification I’d be at a 30k adm. 2 gt350s(r) and a raptor - and hit with an ADM.

AMG GTR (possibly pro) in my future or a mid engine z06!

I’ll still be around though - be the first time since I was 16 that I haven’t owned a mustang.
