Its a normal cycle. Just took longer because of Covid. Its a mass produced truck and Ford keeps making more
i got my 2018 below MSRP in 2018.
Yep- paid $5k under sticker for a brand new “leftover” 2018 in late 2018 as the 2019s were hitting lots, $5k under + $1k credit toward an extended warranty & threw in a tonneau cover too lol!
My 2020 purchased in November of 2020, right as the craziness in the car market really started to take off, I was able to get the 2020 for MSRP essentially - or $500 off - or they threw in a tonneau cover which is worth about $500 anyhow. That was a GREAT deal at the time, seemed like $5k-$10k over sticker was the norm at that time.
Now? At least in MA there are not as many dealers looking to get over MSRP now & w/ the RHO out I think Raptor pricing will soften even further.
Personally? I’d be hard pressed not to take an RHO over a new Raptor b/c of the nicer interior & the power increase - if the Gen3s could be tuned would be a different story, but $10k cheaper w/ nicer interior & more power & equivalent mpg? Hard sell on a Gen3 tbh
