    Ford told Dealer NO Admin.

    To me this clearly shows that despite people saying “dealers can charge what they want” Ford corporate absolutely has leverage over their dealers. Yes Ford Performance vehicles sell themselves but that doesn’t mean that people should have to fight to not get ripped off. They have no right to...

    TRX engine is already on its way out?

    Every once in a while Ford wants to remind their competition just because they don’t do something all the time doesn’t mean they can’t. even subtle people every once in a while have to put the loud mouths in their place to show them where they really stand. when I used to own a Dodge Viper...

    Dealership w/o markups, allocation & deposit

    Allocations are total number whether it’s for inventory or a special order. My dealer only orders a couple of raptor for inventory and holds the remaining allocation for special orders as they know most people are picky with speciality vehicles. The X factor with allocations is that if you are...

    Raptor R - Will you be buying this beast.

    That engineer was definitely lying threw his teeth, his body language gave it away. Im sure he wanted to say the real reason but didn't wanna face the repercussions. I get why Ford is doing what they are doing but the dimensions of the Screw just look wrong when put next to a Scab. The Scab also...

    For those on the east coast, flemington ford in nj never charges over msrp for ford performance vehicles. Ive dealt with Kevin Crowley and he’s a no bs salesman

    Trying so hard to like the Gen 3 but.....

    People are always resistant to new vehicle designs at first but usually come around when they start seeing them.

    2021 Raptor Is a Total BUST!!

    the quality looks fine, there is just way too much blue. blue alcantara, blue leather, blue plastic, then they add orange stitching. raptor buyers don't want modern to this level. stick with colors that always work together.

    2021 Raptor Is a Total BUST!!

    i dont think its lazy, its just too modern. there is too much blue and it reminds me of the blue interior on the navigator. the ram has more contrast going from black to red as opposed to going from mostly blue to dark gray. the recaro interior on the gen 2 has better contract but it could have...

    2021 Raptor Is a Total BUST!!

    the fact that they dont mention it being more rust resistant makes me nervous. i could see the panels rusting threw even faster with them being thinner. just stick with aluminum, people have accepted it and are willing to pay for quality materials.

    2021 Raptor info from my dealership

    that one in the studio had the graphics delete option with the 37 package as discussed on tfl talk. yeah the 19/20 recaros are rare as many didnt like the blue color but i oped for it and it was well worth it. flemington ford in NJ never has mark ups on ford performance vehicles, speak with...

    2021 Raptor Is a Total BUST!!

    Raptor R - Will you be buying this beast.

    i think the bigger question is, can you get one. ford is likely going to play their allocation game like they did with the shelby's. that means high demand, low supply, and big dealer mark ups. there is still a big waiting line for GT500 CFTP's unless you want to sell your soul to the dealer...

    2021 Raptor Is a Total BUST!!

    people said the same thing when the gen 2 was announced with a v6. and the v6 will likely continue to dominate sales.

    2021 Raptor Is a Total BUST!!

    on a side note, even the dodge ceo says v8's are on their deathbed and i think its coming faster than people realize. so what are the thoughts from the v8 only crowd?

    haha you got me there, i was actually going to say "except the bronco" but i let it ride. thats really one of the only exceptions.

    Ford Raptor SCAB RIP (2010-2020)

    because the most new buyers are looking for practicality and everyday use. as time goes on and the trucks move into a collectibility aspect people become more concerned with rarity and uniqueness. look at where lightning and 2 door ram srt10 prices have gone in the last year. hell, you have...
