I ordered from Ryan Ford in Sealy, Tx. Paid $1200 over invoice.

Unfortunately, the customer service has not been too good. I think I got a rookie salesman. It has been really difficult to get any info and finalizing the deal was a pain in the butt. Wrong documents faxed, salesman took a couple of days off and my ordered was not processed until a week later, no calls returned, calls after calls to get it done, you get my point.

Good side of things is that I was given a delivery timeframe of 3-4 months and I am about to hit the 3 month mark. Crossing fingers now

Shouldn't you get a better deal if your aquaintances with the sales manager? I would think if I paid MSRP from someone I knew, he wouldn't be an aquaintance after that. Doesnt sound like friends helping friends.

Considering that the majority of dealer in the area are 10k markup, it would seem like msrp is a fair price. Also to note, I received a free spray liner with rear wheel wells and they're in the works to do a mid perch with no cost. Sure, it's not 2k off msrp, but most won't see that in this area..

FYI

No luck so far in CA...

Redlands- Robyn says they have sold out their allocation for 2013, but will put me on a list for 2014
Patchetts- offered invoice+$1500 (instead of invoice+$500) ETA 8wks
Morgan Hill- offered invoice+$450, but cant give an ETA at all
Heller- MSRP on orders, but flexible price if on lot/instock (makes no sense) and of course there's none instock

Still waiting reply from Super Ford, Frontier Ford, Tom Jones Ford..
I feel like Im running out of options. Lookin like Im better off ordering at invoice, from an out of state dealer, flying out to pick up and take a road trip back to Cali. The $$ saved will pay for the mini vacay. Aahh but closer to home is so much more convenient.... HELP!!

What you can do is order the raptor out of state and do a courtesy delivery. It means, when you order from Texas and you live in CA. You can have it ship to your local dealership for a fee. It can be between $500-1000 dollars. Mine was $500 which was worth it because the dealer that I ordered the raptor from is 8 hours away 1 way.

Allocation

Can anyone explain a little clearer a dealers allocation. I placed an order with my dealer but he claimed he had 5 orders ahead of me and has not yet heard back from the regional rep about build dates for them. I had another dealer call me yesterday saying he had an allocation open up. I guess here are the questions im looking to have clarified.

How many raptors is a particular dealer allocated?

What happens if the order beyond their allocation?

And is it worth it to cancel my order and order through the dealer that tells me they have an allocation open?

Thanks for the help guys.
