This really only holds true for products that don't really have much or any competition. The Raptor may fall into such a category but the F-series as a whole most certainly does not. This setback includes, but is not limited to the Raptor. There's zero chance this helps Ford.

This post and especially the one below it really just sound like they were made by folks who paid MSRP+ and trying to plant seeds of doubt so others give up waiting on MSRP deals.

73 days worth of F-150 inventory sitting on dealer lots, so should't impact sales much assuming this is not a multi-month shutdown.

agree, supply and demand. Sorry you guys have to wait but happy for me who bought just over msrp a couple months ago. This will definitely wipe out the current msrp deals or at least limit them.
