Locating a 2022 Ford Raptor for MSRP can be done. You just need to be patient, do some homework and be willing to wait up to a year. I personally refuse to pay a penny over MSRP for a depreciating asset.

My order will most likely be a 2023 with Raptors trickling out of the assembly plants, parts shortages, temporary assembly line workers and the ongoing chip shortage fiasco.

The only bright side, if you can call it that, is that Raptor demand may be slowing a tad due to climbing fuel prices. 87 octane is over $5 a gallon at every gas station in my area. Costco fuel, 87 octane, is $4.89 but will be over $5 soon thanks the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Do you use 87? I thought raptors needed 93. (Serious question, not an owner yet)

go on to Ford website and do a search within a 100 miles of you. 5 Raptors came up available when I just did it... call around, you can find one.

I've been doing that for months now but the site shows all incoming Raptors whether they're sold or not. Feel free to call and offer to pay MSRP and you'll be told "that one is already sold". If you offer more than MSRP they'll just play you against the other potential buyers and take the highest offer.
