How much did you pay for yours?

Interesting . . . in the meantime you pay taxes on the larger sale price. Of which the delta you won't get back.

Most dealerships will see at the price protected price and wait to receive the check from Ford. Some dealerships do sell at the new price and have the check sent to the customer in which case you would pay extra sales tax.

I'm certain this has been asked and answered somewhere but I'm having a hard time navigating this site. I'm an aspiring owner but most certainly not going to pay 20-50 over MSRP

Just saw this 2022 with under 4k miles at my dealer. Given the run up in MSRP for 2023 and the likelihood of a long wait this isn’t a bad asking price for a Raptor with Lux (I think), Beadlock Capable, Leather and Carbon packages. Plus if you like Cyber Orange, it’s no longer available in 2023.

Given that you cannot get a BR in school bus yellow, that is a screaming deal. PLUS, 33,000 FordPass points and extended warranty! I'd buy it if I didn't already have the 🌶️ Raptor.

Asking price is at current MSRP . . . somebody jump on it!

FYI, these are the alloy Al beadlock rims not the forged Al beadlock rims.

I would've jumped all over this if it were available when I was in the market!

I just brought home a used ‘22 with under 1500 miles from a non-Ford dealer for 90k (still 12k over my ‘22 build MSRP). It’s identical to my original build order with the addition of the carbon fiber kit.

Knowing this is something I purely “want” and do not “need”, I have had no problem turning down multiple ridiculously greedy dealerships. The “market price” is only what you’re willing to pay, not what the dealers jack it up to. Don’t let them convince you otherwise.

Just stalk vehicles online, make some offers, and wait. The worst a dealer can do is say no. If it sits long enough, they’ll have more motivation to sell, especially with the ‘24 orders starting to roll out soon. I made my first offer on this raptor months ago and got turned down.

There are probably more, and possibly better, ways to go about it but that was my strategy.

I bugged every dealer within 500 miles for an iconic silver that was at all reasonable...most were still 10-20k over or 100-105 for slightly used. A dealer friend turned me on to a new one in a small town an hour away that landed night before...they only sell msrp. It was a great experience. We took off some decals so we paid for an option we didn't really want, but felt great about the overall purchase.

Welcome and glad to hear it all went well. I pick mine up Thursday. It finally came in. Can't wait. Silver is real nice. The Raptor Off Rodeo is in my calendar to book on Friday. Are you planning to go? There is a great thread here. Everyone has enjoyed it. I have a trade in I did OK on so they made some extra, but it has some pricey aftermarket mods which you don't generally do too well on anyway. I am happy with the deal. It is good and fair.

Well that's curious. Looks like the Destination Charge increased $100 since 10-MAY.

Delivery fees used to be $200. This is so inflated it’s getting difficult to justify. The strategy to match the Jeep 392 doesn’t make sense. Does the price increases eventually back fire at some point with high interest rates and over 160 used (mostly new) bronco raptors on the market? Something doesn’t add up but on par with the rest of the mess in the country/world.

As a follow up to discussion a few pages ago…. I finally received my 2023 Raptor end of June ‘23 and paid for it based on the Current MSRP of my build at the time of invoice (which was $12k over my original signed DORA from Oct 2022). The dealer said that it was their understanding that Ford automatically compares the special order DORA at time of COVP/Order to the time of purchase/invoice MSRP and will reimburse the difference in 60-90 days. I’ve worked with this dealer over the years and have a trustworthy salesman, so I believed them. They also relayed that there isn’t $12k profit in the vehicle sale so there was no way they could assume Ford would send this money and discount my sale on the day of purchase.

So…. Lo and Behold, I got a check last week from the dealer, reimbursing the $12k that my inflated MSRP had changed from the day of order (Oct ‘22 for a 23 MY Raptor) to the day of invoice after production, June 2023.

I post this to caution any of you that paid the inflated/invoiced MSRP for your Raptor and your dealer said…. “sorry, no price protection”. This is intra-model year price matching…. Not year to year price protection. So if your dealer had you pay based on invoiced MSRP, they also received a nice check from Ford 60-90 days later, probably $8-12k reimbursing the MSRP increase that occurred within the 2023 model year.

Honest dealers should call you and offer that money to you. You ordered the vehicle at one price, and it was not your fault they raised the MSRP by over $10k before they could build it….. BUT, I would guess many dealerships are keeping this money as their own sales Bonus and never passing it on to the purchaser. $10k-12k pays for some nice mods which everyone’s Raptor is begging for!
