There is a thread about this somewhere but here's what you do...
Get a list of 30 or so dealers closest to you. Start at the top and start calling dealers. Ask to speak to the ordering manager or a sales manager. You likely won't get one but it's worth a try. Once you have someone on the line, let them know that you are ready to come in today and order a Raptor for $500 over invoice and will put a desposit down. Don't mention anything regarding the size of the deposit or how you are going to pay for the truck. Deal with that later. If the dealer says your crazy, say thanks for your time, I have the opportunity to purchase the truck at that price from a dealer in California but I'd rather purchase locally if possible to save me the hassle. If you feel inclined, you could also mention that at $500 over invoice, they are still make a couple grand due to the hold back for 15 mins of work. If they say they won't becuase of allocation, let them know that a retail or sold order doesn't count against their allocation. Sooner or later, you will find a dealer willing to do the deal. If not, well, go talk to Randy!!
This is exactly what I did when I ordered my Raptor. I spoke with about 15 dealers by phone or email and found 3 within 100 miles who were willing to order a Raptor for $500 over invoice. Do waste time with dealers who aren't willing to deal, don't be afraid drive a little, and $500 over invoice will be a reasonable deal.
I want to order a 2012 supercab since no dealers order then anymore. I built it on fords website w/bed graphics, luxury package & moon roof as my only options & the price came out to about $48,600.. (theres no way im paying that much even if its worth it). I called to order and the dealership in vegas laughed when i said ill buy it right now for 45,000, i had 15 thousand in hand for down payment and they still wouldnt budge. Is there no one out there getting these trucks less than msrp?!! Another dealership i called said they wont sell a raptor for less than 3K over msrp! Maybe its just my age, im only 20 but have a great job & serious amount for down payment, i just think im getting screwed around. So im curious as to what some other raptor owners may have payed, even on a 2011. I will appriciate any info, Thanks!
