Got my 2020 802a in Magnetic Grey for $3840 off sticker in November. I'm sure the dealer will do better currently. This was Bay Area CA, in general CA seems to have cocky salesman who expect a 5k premium on top of sticker. Thought I would need to travel out of state but was able to get one at $70k after calling about 50 dealerships. There is a dealer in Sacramento that offered 5k off sticker but had a couple options I specifically did not want(graphics). I'm sure they're more flexible 5 months later and with the financial collapse. If you need a referral LMK

Well, I think they are kidding themselves, the consumer confidence index is crashing hard, we all know why, Ford knows it, FCA, GM, Toy, Hon, they all know it. Maybe I'm too doom and gloom, but the writing is on the wall, they will have to give these things away to even have a hope they can continue to survive. Remember what happened in 2008, how many Ford and GM dealerships folded up, a lot. so, they are stupid not to take the 63K IMO, they may be losing about 3 to 4 K on it, but it's cash flow they desperately need.

Fully agree....back when the housing/banking crisis hit I bought a Brand New Dodge work van (mostly stripped)for my business,dont hold me to the #'s,but listed around $24+K,and within 15 minutes of talking they were down to $21K,and at time Dodge was so desperate to sell they were offering a $5K Rebate...so I picked it up for $16K...Like the Ford Raptor and F-150,the Dodge van is usually hard to deal on......but when the shit hits the fan,they WILL dicker much more with you.....give them another month...of course it sucks we get good deals only when the world is going to hell in a handbasket,would rather pay full price and have our booming economy back,but if guys are not afraid of the future....I think prices will go down even when Virus shit is all settled,cause then they will be desperate to get things moving again and will offer incentives like they did during our last crisis...We are a strong country and this is just another blip we have to ride out!

Or just buy one where I bought my 2020. I had never been to this dealership before.I just randomly walked in and ordered a 2020 at invoice. Then the salesman wanted to work with nice round figures so he rounded it down to $28.44 under invoice. Some on the lot are $1K below invoice.
It's located on the upper right coast so it may not be feasible for some.

So if the number on the window sticker is the MSRP, how do you know what the dealer invoice is? Where would you find out?

I'm also in the market, but looking at pre-owned / certified. I've seen loaded Raptors as you describe $55k-$62k online with 10-15k miles. Its a trade off, but reduces the hassle factor and save you a boat load. I'd also take Denver Taco's advice and with contacting them with your offer and wait. Someone will need the cash flow at end of month and will accept your offer. Patience will save you thousands.

Opinion time. The overall economy will get worse before it gets better. We won't know the extend of the real damage until companies announce a full quarter of financials under these unprecedented conditions. I'm dying to buy, but keep telling myself to wait. Worse case 2021 models will hit dealerships late August to early September. Dealer inventories will force them to move unsold 2019-2020 models.

So if the number on the sticker invoice on the window, How do you know what the dealer invoice is? Where would you find out?

https://www.car-buying-strategies.com/dealer-invoice/ford-f-150-prices.html

This site is a good starting point that I used. Obviously with a Toyota Corolla's amount of options available for a Raptor it goes up quickly.

You can also just ask the dealer/salesman for the invoice. If they're not willing to show it to you then I wouldn't deal with them. I've test driven/looked at Raptors in North California, Alberta and NC. Some dealers act as if they're selling you unobtainium and I wouldn't bother with them.

I would contact only “Omar “ at Westlie Ford in Washougal, Wa ( a couple miles East of Vancouver )
I am not well versed on the details that you described. However he did me a Solid when I drove 150mi to look at an Excursion in 2003. We have been using Westlie for Service on our Fords including my 2011 Raptor for years.
The other person I have strong confidence in is Rob Chaussee at Enumclaw Ford near BONNEY Lake WA.
My 2011 was purchased from Rob when I assigned to Ft Lewis.
