Its an ask . You can say no , or counter offer. I’d never press forward given market conditions and principal.
Dealer increased price after waiting 16 months?!

So you think the dealer should eat the 8k in MSRP increase? Their price went up also. They are selling for MSRP +5k. You will be very hard pressed to find a better deal. Buy it and raise hell with Ford after your purchase. They will give you a customer satisfaction award. Ensure you remove their sticker and mail it back them.

As others have said MSRP increased, they are not adding another fee. If you look for another Raptor you would be paying the same price and run the risk of another 16 month wait or settle for options you didn't want. It's a tough call and kind of a bad one, but I would take the truck I ordered then have services done elsewhere.
Edit: they are still standing by their deal with you, MSRP +$8k. Just the MSRP number changed.

Ya, your issue is with Ford, not the dealer. Not sure there’s many dealers that would eat the 8k MSRP increase. Also, in my experience getting a truck, you would have had to sign a new sales order (with the different packages/truck options for that MY) when moving from a 22 (or 21) to 23 truck. Pretty sure orders didn’t just “roll over” they were resubmitted as new orders each MY.
At least this was my experience having had 6-7 trucks on order and eventually getting two 37 package trucks as MSRP.

Its to my understanding that the dealer pays the price when the truck is ordered. Their costs of MSRP do not go up but what is essentially happening is that they are using it as a fake ADM.
They do pay the price it was when it was ordered. When it didnt get built, Ford made the dealer put in another order at the next model years pricing. ADM is BS, but you agreed to that before. Other than the ADM, the dealer isnt ******** you. It's Ford that is sticking it to you.

Yep if its a re-order you are correct. I must have missed that. I'm so glad I got mine when I did with a low interest rate. People are going to end up almost 100k into these trucks and they are not worth that amount at all.

My money says it's Phil Long Ford.
While I agree with the price increase on new YM, don’t you think the dealer has the duty to inform their customer about this when submitting new order, not waiting until it’s built and delivered? The only reason they did this without telling him because they knew they can sell it with the new MSRP plus ADM easily. What they needed is buyer info so they can place the order. That is a shady business practice.
I had to pick my build options and sign a new sales order when my 21 order rolled to 22. Each price was itemized on the order. So yes, they should inform. Not sure how this order was submitted given the OP says he waited 16 months which would seem he was bumped 1 or 2 MY from his original order.
