The 2018 is in really good shape, one small door ding, and a small chip, the Ceramic and Paint are probably in better shape than a new one. Just a small rattle front left I cannot figure out, not sway bar bushings.
I think you are right, basically +50k for the 2025, warranty good on mine till August 2025 or 125K, even if I dropped a rebuilt tranny in the 2018 I would still be way ahead. Thinking the engine with regular 5k Mobile One Oil changes is good for 150k.
With the extended warranty I'd bring it to a good dealership and have them find the rattle, and check all possibilities. They may find something else that would be covered. Plus, by August, they may have some info available on the 26s. I'm hoping the RHO will prompt Ford to upgrade the interior too. At least those would be, and are similar to, the thoughts I have about mine. The longest I've held onto a Raptor is about 2.5 years, and I'll hit that in April. Good luck and keep us posted!

Just contacted a dealer about a leftover 2024 for discount and it’s under recall so they can’t sell it. They wanted a non refundable deposit to hold it but said it could be April before the recall get resolved. Wtf

There is a 2024 37 Package in Huntsville, TX that's sitting there for a recall as well.

I ordered a 2025 801A in Space White. I have a 2018 Lead Foot with 80K on the odometer that I am really struggling to see how a 2025 is going to be better apart from the miles.
2018 - LeadFoot, Ceramic, PPF on Front, Deaver +3HD, 2019 Live Valves with SDI EClik, Carbon Fiber, Baja Pro's in the bumper, Baja S1's for Reverse, Retrax MX Pro.
What I am unclear on the 2025?
Does it have the Tailgate Step? (I use this for the Rooftop Tent).
Looks like I will be missing Carbon Fiber on Gear Shifter and up/down shifting on the Shifter.
I also think the Seat Material on my 2018 is thicker than the newer models, My shows zero wear, as I don't slide off the seats when I get out of the truck.

The 2018 Tows the Boat like a champ, the Deavers and the EClik set at 100% on towing works awesome.
The '25 does have the tailgate step. The only feature missing from the '25 vs the '24 that I have found is the keypad. That is now optional. There are a few physical buttons that have gone into the screen or gotten moved, but otherwise the '25 is like the '24.

Just to close the loop, even if off topic.
The rattle in the left front was a worn out lower shock bushing. Had all 4 shocks rebuilt by Texas Shock Works, drove there, take off, rebuild, and 3 hours later done. Awesome guys to deal with

I don't imagine a '25 will be hard to get. I ordered mine in early October and took delivery on New Year's Eve. Considering there were a number of '24s still available the last time I checked, I don't think there will be a big rush on '25 orders. Especially considering the '25 lost a few small standard features.
I ordered a 25 and then just let it go. The missing features was a factor for sure.

With the stripping down of features and the hilarious nature of QC during the MY24, I can't imagine a single person will go out of their way to get a MY25.

Ford has certainly created a crappy situation to close out this generation.
