Any way to bypass "Extended Inventory" when searching Fords website?

[triggerfish]

I'm on the hunt for a Raptor, and of course dealers are not willing to deal Raptors to other dealers so when I search in FL for one, there is nothing at my local dealer and everything else comes up as "extended dealer". I would like to find the actual dealer that has the vehicle so I can jump an a car that is coming in and see if I can make a deal.

Does anyone know of a way to bypass the "extended dealer" thing that pops up when I search in state?

Right now I would like Ruby Red, Blue, or white (in that order of preference).

Thanks in advance!

I knew where I was ordering my truck. But for fun I would search other areas by looking up alternative zip codes and searching that way.

Yep I've done the zip code way myself. One time I did an online chat with Ford and told them exactly what I was looking for and the next day they provided me list of the entire USA of the one I wanted. At that time there was only four to be found.

Thanks for the replies, guys.

I'm on the hunt!! This is going to be a long process, I can tell.. but worth it.

Look at the window sticker / vin and then google it. Should find where it's for sale pretty quickly.

When I was looking for one I kept doing that Ford search to try to find one and everytime I would call about one it was typically always sold.
