I bought my truck with estate money too. I would think that goes without saying honestly.

? Also if you know how much down they are requiring. .

This is all determined by your FICO score. If you only have a low 600ish FICO score...expect some crappy rates that require cash to get a loan.

I got 0% for 72months on my VW last week for $0 down with a next to perfect credit score.

here, on frf
I believe that honor has already been bestowed on another individual, whose username was written on the door of most 1st gen Raptors.
gotta admit, i do miss him.
Hold it, hold it, we’re not talking about Sasquatch 77 and his many aliases, are we? His name was not written on the door of my original 2010 Gen 1 SCAB... :eek:

Plus, I joined a whole ten days earlier than you, so what would you know. :p
nope. this was well before sasquach. guess again. let me know if you need a hint

I was at a dealer here in LA over the weekend looking at a 2020 Leadfoot 802A Scab with an MSRP of $65k and dealer wanted $70K and was not moving on it a bit. I even had an A plan pin in hand but knew that the Raptor didn't qualify for A/Z plan which is a real pain. So the search continues.

That's just not true. You're giving your opinion as if it's fact, it's not.
https://www.fordraptorforum.com/threads/dealers-selling-2020s-at-invoice.75517/page-2

Except by and large it is true, and my opinion is seasoned by experience in the industry whereas most posts here including yours are not.

Reread my post and then look at the timeline on that thread you sent me. What month was it? April. You know what was happening in showrooms in April? Absolutely nothing. You may have been lucky to get somebody to deal then because there was literally nobody lining up to buy. But if you look, the guys who did get invoice were the exception, not the rule.

Now? The same dealerships are packed. Everyone I know that’s still selling are jam packed everyday. One guy can’t even get a vacation approved because they can’t afford to be a man down.

Now tell me why again a dealer that’s busy wants to make next to nothing on a speciality vehicle that ordinarily commands a hefty price when people are lining up at the door to give them fat margins on regular cars and trucks?
