With all of the people indicating they paid MSRP, I haven’t seen one person post a pic of the contract indicating such. I am not saying it never occurred, but it is extremely doubtful everyone is telling the truth. Kinda like Biden saying, “only the rich will pay.” Everyone is paying for his economic policies and I have a hunch most people claiming they paid MSRP is cow dung. Remember there is more to the price paid for a vehicle than MSRP. Dealerships make money on extended warranties, pre paid maintenance contracts and tire replacement. Dealerships do not care about anything but net profit. Start posting contracts with dealership names, total price paid and the window sticker. Regardless, there are people than can afford private jets and those that always fly coach, an ADM for a person that can afford a jet is just another expense, for which they care less. Those that will wait for the 2022 may be in for a shock because prices are very unlikely to go down. Think about inflation last year and compare it to today, afterward read the inflation forecast. A seasoned investor is a forward thinker, buy it today because it will cost more tomorrow.

less than msrp same dealer i have bought 7 raptors and countless other cars from for the last 20 years . they dont believe in adm due location and how they do business they dont care about how limited the raptors are or gt500 for that matter as they sold the one they had for less than sticker along with the gt350 they had last year. my dealer wants repeat customers. i am not saying that a lot of dealers do this. i know there are a lot of local dealers around me that will . but for the most of them what raptors they ordered they are already spoken for when ordered only 2 around locally that were dealer ordered. mine was the only allocation they had .

Not sure why people need to prove anything to you. MSRP trucks could be found all over back in July, i know because i ordered one. I even found one in Sept and have it being delivered today. Am i going to take the time to redact my PII and post my contract so you can see? Not likely because i have no reason to other than satisfying some naysayer.

For what purpose would it serve me to lie and say I paid MSRP but actually paid ADM.. It serves no purpose and a ton of people on here have been open to admit they paid over. I have an agreement and signed order with my dealer for MSRP when I pick it up next month. How is that bull crap?

I think a majority are paying MSRP. Remaining being split between actual ADM or getting low balled on trade or requiring extras.

I got MSRP and a crazy good trade-in price, only grab is a $125 doc fee which isn’t that bad. Of course non 37. You can review my paperwork if you want some reading material:)

Local dealer here in northern Va said he had 40+ leads to call and wanted me to buy their 37 pack for 25k over. Also said a wholesaler offered 25k over but the owner of the dealership said he wanted to sell “local” and declined said offer. None of that makes sense to me.

“Look, I’ll be honest, you’re the 6th dealer to call me this week about buying a ’21 Raptor. 3 of them want to sell me their truck at MSRP, but I know that when Ford ramps up production, they’ll be selling under MSRP. Honestly, you’re not even in the city with the stadium price wise, much less the same ball park. When you’re serious about selling, and by that I mean beating the deal the other 3 dealers are offering me, then call me back."

fight fire with fire.

Don't have a 2021, but if I did, I absolutely would not feel the need to post up my contract as proof I'm not lying to random people on the internet. What motivation do people have to lie about the price they paid rather than just not mention the price at all? And sure, there surely are some that are overpaying in other ways, or perhaps not making as much as they could on trade ins.

As far as the wealthy having money to burn, every one I know who's got a ton of disposable income didn't get that way by overpaying, and they don't want to start overpaying now. They also know how to negotiate to a fair deal.
