Yep, I called around today and have heard as high as $20k. Then I have found one small town dealer at MSRP with the truck being built next week and delivered in a month. I have never flipped a Ford before, do they allow third party buyouts or just the Ford dealers can buy out the lease? Any restrictions around how quickly the lease can be paid off? Any fees/penalties to be aware of?
Not an option for Ford credit. If they do a CULA lease, which Iâd be surprised if they do, via a local credit union, you could potentially flip it. Or just eat the tax and enjoy a sweet ride.
I am actually looking into potentially buying the Ranger Raptor if my trade works out, found a couple incoming ones at small town dealers at MSRP. Might sell the Ranger Raptor to local dealers that are asking for $20k markup on their new ones or even potentially put it on cars and bids, weâll see. There is a chance I might keep it too if it is as good as the reviewers are saying it is. I do need a truck or SUV with a hitch to haul our electric mountain bikesâŚ
did you end up picking up one? Mine is supposed to be arriving at my dealer in the next few days.
Well, my trade is not working out with the dealers selling at MSRP and all the dealers giving me a fair value on my expensive trade are trying to sell the Raptor at a markup so I have not bought one yet. I might skip the Ranger Raptor altogether and just take my Land Cruiser allocation when it lands in a couple of monthsâŚ
Any leads where one could pick up or order a RR at MSRP with no blessings?
+1, i was holding out for a TRD PRo and nowthat they announced pricing Iâm gonna switch to hunting down a RR instead
Best I found was 5k over. Would love one at msrp.
I was reading some posts that said the best way to get MSRP is to place a 2025 order when the banks open, given the 24âs are done.
The msrp bump and less options imo probably wonât make it worth it. They threw in a lot on the 23âs as standard.
Join âno markup ford raptorâ group on FB. There was an RR in Michigan posted a couple weeks ago at sticker. Definitely sold by now but more will probably pop up in there.
I found one out out of state pretty easily and had it shipped to California. Better than playing the order lottery or paying a markup IMO, especially when there are so few options on these.
That got posted on the weekend after dealer closed, i called the dealer owner monday morning right at open (i represent that dealership) and he said it was sold already
Howâs your first few months of ownership been?
Huge fan so far. 6k miles including at least a couple thousand hard off road miles. Only issue I had was one of the Fox live valve connections coming unplugged which just needed to be reattached
Any updated opinions on this one? I had an order in from a LONG time ago and it seems it is now built? Would transfer out of my Lightning and this would be my daily. I think I would like driving it, and depreciation shouldnât be too bad.
I really liked mine for the short period I had owned it and I am not a truck person. Flipped it for a small profit but that was back in Spring, still the depreciation should be minimal today. Sounds and drives great, feels special especially for the price. If they added ventilated seats and had decent lease terms, I would seriously consider one againâŚ
Anyone know what the market is for these now. Can one be ordered/found at a significant discount off MSRP?
Maybe 2k offâŚThey are selling in some areas as soon as they come off the truck
Yeah, itâs a competing value but a base RHO can be ordered for $10k off. That might be the better way to go imo.
