Well I have an order at about 369,420 and I'm confident it will get filled. However, I encourage anyone who is before me in line to give up, they've waited so long you know? Longer than me even!!! (Three exclamations is enough to translate to sarcasm right?)
You're probably right. I don't think this project will ever truly happen. If your reservation number is before 369,420 you should cancel and save yourself the grief.
Yes, if someone has a reservation number prior to 369,420 then they should cancel their reservation because it's unlikely that they will ever get one. Anyone after that number is free to dream.
If they start production September 1st and average 1k/week which is very slow then that's 16k this year. To me any guess below 16k isn't based in any kind of logic and is purely emotional.
If you're number is before 369,420 then you should probably get the raptor. You might not get the CT until 2026 if they even make it. Cancel your reservation and free up the $100 deposit for your raptor.
