Thank you! A couple raptor r sales ppl said trx is killing them right now. I spoke with two sales guys yesterday that were pissed at their management/owners for holding out at such high ADM. I offered two raptors at $10k over and they both declined. I got this trx $25k off msrp. I just wanted...

I found a new (1k mile) TRX Final edition for $99,800 and couldn’t pass it up. I preferred to stay with Ford but …I think the trx might be a better fit for me. Thank you all for your tips and advice! Maybe if I decide to stick with 1/2 ton, then I will re-eval the market in the Spring.

Yeh, after speaking with a few today, and just based off of all my dealings with dealerships...I'll borrow a line from the great movie Remember the Titans "Attitude reflects Leadership". If the dealership management understands the times and how to move cars, then usually the sales people are...

I know there was a thread awhile back but wanted to see if there was an update. Anyone have any experience adding these to their truck for towing? Just looking to reduce the sag. I only tow once or twice a month. Thanks

I guess we got a new leader. Mark Ficken Ford in Charlotte…$166,780. $52k ADM. I know there’s a lot of money in Charlotte…so more power to them if they can get it.

Wow if everyone had someone like you to help straighten their life out…the world would be a better place lol. Everyone is different…it’s not a “not being able to afford” the adm…for me, part of the enjoyment of owning a vehicle is not losing much depreciation when I go to sell the vehicle. I...

We should start a thread on who has the highest ADM. I talked with the dealership in Charlotte yesterday who is asking $169,000 for a new one and $140,000 for a 9500 mile used one

Ok thanks! Mind if I ask why you are calling dealers if you are happy with your trx? Thanks

Thank you! I called a few of them. Some are already spoken for. I did find one. I still haven't decided if I want to do the $10k or wait it out for a $5k. I'm selling my truck on Monday and then I'll really need to make a decision. There's also a new TRX $12k under msrp close to me that I...

Congrats!

Could you pm me some of those dealers names? Because every single one I call wants $25k or more. Right now I'm leaning toward a TRX since I can't find an R. I even considered a used '24 R but they were still asking $129k. And I would have had to have it trailered to me and so adding...

You are killin me lol. Several members on this forum (and other forums) have stated recently that they have found raptor r at msrp..."you just have to look for them." And that's what Oldfart did back in 2020...everyone was charging over msrp and he found someone that was not and used that as...

No I quoted him because he mention that when other dealers were asking ADM, Ford in Charlotte offered below invoice. So I was just showing that even that dealership is now asking well over msrp...so I guess they all eventually cave to jacking up the price. Didn't realize I needed to spell that...

Tried calling captial Ford in Charlotte...said they have one coming in but it will be at least $20k over but probably more.

No luck...they said there will be a significant ADM. It's still in transit. Sounds like at least $20k over

I honestly don't think that's the norm. Yes, there's a few that just give them a blank check. But from my experience, most guys that pay cash for these, still are aware of depreciation and value. I do think that the TRX is a direct competitor and might be the better option if we are comparing...

LOL you wonder sometimes. I'm sure there's pressure there and everyone wants to make a buck...but there doesn't need to be any aggressive attitude. Maybe they get inquiries 24/7 and they just get tired of it. Who knows...

Appreciate that! I'll check it out. I think I have called or emailed 50-100...

tried to order one. Just spoke with a dealer…he said it would be $45k over msrp to order one. :/ I hate to leave Ford…got a ‘23 f250 kr tremor that I bought new…called the dealer I bought it from and asked about ordering a raptor r…said there would be a big ADM.

Ha good point. It’s crazy though. Had a non ford dealer selling a used one for $20k over msrp. He said that at auction they are going for $15k over msrp.

Am I the only one that seems to get scoffed at when mentioning msrp? I've been trying to find a Raptor R and have contacted a lot of dealers. Almost every single one that I email, seems to have an attitude and act like I am nuts for even suggesting the crazy idea of looking for a raptor r at...

Nice truck! I would love to have one...just can't find a decent deal on one. If anyone knows of one without too much ADM, please let me know. Trying to decide pretty soon whether going to go TRX, 37, or R. Thanks

Ok thanks! I think I can get a TRX for $18k under msrp. So I think I might go that route. I'm still not sure I'm going to trade in my F250...but that's the direction i'm headed. I just prefer V8 engines (for multiple reasons). I contacted a dealer who had a RR with 6k miles on it and they...

Hey, thinking about getting a 37 raptor and was curious how you are doing with the bags? I pull a boat quite a bit and sold my gen 2 raptor due to the squat. Do the air bags help? do you leave them in all the time or just when towing? Thanks

Wow that's interesting! So how does the 37 Raptor compare with the 23 TRX? I was tossing around the idea of getting a new 37 raptor instead. And as a daily, you said you would pick the TRX...like the other member...mind sharing a little more on why? I assume maybe interior and fun factor...
