I Bought A Ford Raptor 2022 | Should You Buy It?
In this video I’ll share with you my experience and give some tips that worked to lower the finance rate and negotiate the market adjustment hike into products.
Buying a Raptor was not what I expected. It took 14 months. Involved 4 different trucks, one which is still on order. Dealer misinformation, financing tricks and dealer market adjustment greed. In the
end I’m happy, but Ford has some work to do if they even care what ordering a truck is like in 2022.

I can relate but I'm going to wait. Ordered my 2022 Raptor 10/29/2021. Got conformation 10/30/2021. Dealer changed my order from a 19 to 10 in February. Ford has put me on a 45 day notification notice. They email me every 45 days that my order is still pending. Dealer told me that all Raptors for 2022 are spoken for and mine will be built as a 2023. The good news is I'm price protected and my dealer sold me this truck for MSRP as this is my forth F-150 and second Raptor they will be selling me. I will be one of the very few to pay $6000 below MSRP for a 2023 Raptor . Sometimes it pays to be patient.

@bobbygfl 2 года назад

My 10/31/21 order is the same as what you are saying. Deposit made. 2022 at 6k below the current 2022 msrp. No market adjustment. I’ve got the build sheet and the order with pricing on it. Exactly what you are saying. But it’s still not been made. I’m looking forward to see what bs the dealer tells me. I don’t believe I’ll get it. My bet is they cancel the build and tell me I can reorder at the current msrp. But we’ll see. Please let me know if you are successful.

@douglasfernandez7996 2 года назад

Don't cancel. Ford is changing all the unbuilt 2022s to be 2023s. The dealer should notify you if you have to make any changes due to discontinued colors or option changes . Just make the changes, don't reorder or you will have to pay the 2023 price. When the truck comes in it will have the 2023 window sticker showing the 2023 MSRP prices on it. The dealer has the ability to submit to Ford for a rebate of the price difference from the 2021 ordered quote. This information was posted by a Ford Dealer on RU-vid and verified by my dealer. Good luck

@douglasfernandez7996 2 года назад

Long McArthur Ford Posted [ How to complete the price protection on an ordered vehicle] I just got notification from my dealer that my Atlas Blue 2022 Raptor build was canceled and my dealer had to reorder it as a 2023 in a different color since Atlas Blue was canceled for 2023. My dealer had a meeting with the Ford district rep. The rep said that my newly ordered 2023 Rapid Red Raptor would be price protected back to the 2021 MSRP price that It was when originally ordered . That means I will be paying $74,980 for the 2023 Raptor which has a new MSRP price of $80,210. Thank you Ford. Hope this helps you case. Doug

I just placed an order for a 24 Raptor at MSRP. Hopefully my experience wont be similar ha. I will say, at 2% you should have financed it all. You can an easily make 4-5% on most money market accounts. Hope you're still enjoying it!

@bobbygfl 8 месяцев назад

The deal was based on the amount down. 100% at 2% wasn’t an option, but agreed! Good luck with the process!! You’ll love the truck. So fun to drive.

@Tonyr0206 2 года назад

The dealership you were dealing with were quite difficult. I've never heard of a dealer not holding a sold vehicle for a few days until the weekend. To me at least, it sounds like they wanted to make the process as difficult and inconvenient as possible.

@bobbygfl 2 года назад

This is my experience with every dealer as far as raptors. Same dealer would be accommodating with a Focus. But a raptor they all seem greedy and difficult to me.

@Tonyr0206 2 года назад

@@bobbygfl Unreal. I'm kind of in the same boat you were in. I ordered one with allocation at MSRP, on April 2, 2022 and as of today still don't even have a date of production. Since April, I've been in touch twice with the dealer, who said he checks on the status of the truck weekly, but still has no updates. He did tell me that they ended up having to re-order mine as a 2023. I haven't broached the money aspect of it yet with him. I'll be a bit argumentative with him if they try to hit me up with an MSRP increase. I'll cross that bridge once I have a date of production and a VIN number. I have been looking all over the country to see if I can find one comparable to the one I ordered (at MSRP). I'd have better luck striking gold in my back yard!!

@bobbygfl 2 года назад

@@Tonyr0206 lol. Well great attitude anyway! I’d question that 2023 reorder. My October 2021 order is still active. Not built lol but not canceled like yours would need to be to say they needed to reorder. Sounds like dealer tricks to me. Have you called the 800 number to check yourself?

@douglasfernandez7996 9 месяцев назад

January 2021 Ford allowed me the full purchase price of my 2018 Raptor toward a new Ford truck under the lemon law as long as it was not another Raptor. I ordered a 2021 F-150 Platinum and it came in August of 2021. September of 2021 I ordered a 35 package 2022 Raptor.for $76,000. September of 2022 the order was canceled by Ford as it was never built. They told me I had to reorder it as a 2023 and would have to pay the order date price for the 2023 . September of 2022 I reordered it as a 2023 with the 37 package for $82,000. January of 2023 I changed the order back to a 35 package which would have reduce the original MSRP to $79,000. March of 2023 the 35 package truck came in without the heated steering wheel. Ford would only honer the September 2022 order price of $82,000 for the 37 package truck that I had ordered back then. It was take it or leave it. After waiting 27 months and knowing it was still less than the current March of 2023 MSRP I took it. Every one who bought a Raptor has a story. If you are willing to wait you can buy at MSRP.

@bobbygfl 9 месяцев назад

But no heated steering lol! Thanks for the comment. Interesting story. I enjoyed reading it. Agreed if you can get an allocation you’ll eventually get a sticker priced truck possibly with a few missing options.

@MattDelovino Год назад

what a roller coaster. The dealership gets kick back from whoever they find to finance you. So they def made some money there as well. Greedy. Congrats on the raptor tho, looks great!

@bobbygfl Год назад

@highwayman1218 9 месяцев назад

I tell you.... Its both consumers and Fords fault for these issues with the sales on their stuff... Ive been in the market for a Raptor and tired of the nickle and dime BS for a truck Id of bought outright... Regular military & 1st responder discounts are pulled, then theyre making good profit $$$ selling at msrp, getting financing kickbacks and dealer survey kickbacks.... JC its sickening for a truck no one needs. YET they still want minimum 5k adm and a long list of shady add ons (no one wants) here in So Cal... Ford says what the trucks worth on that big sticker on the window, the dealer makes up their own values.

@bobbygfl 9 месяцев назад

It’s crap. The dealer called me last week because they had a Raptor R and the sale fell through. They wanted 35,000 over sticker. it’s nice that they thought of me but what a joke and you can’t order one. That’s the problem I have. And that is entirely Ford’s fault. The dealers were required to offer customers allocations, and there was steps taken to prove they weren’t BS applications just for dealer stock. You and I would both be able to order one. Gets me so angry just thinking about it.

@highwayman1218 9 месяцев назад

@@bobbygfl I finally was able to find one.... It was someones special order with a few options most people didn't want to pay for (electric package and tonneau cover 2500.00) is my guess and from what I can tell it sat at the dealer at least from June when they did the PDI. It had everything I wanted, color, the extra stuff wasnt a deal breaker for me and I didn't mind the extra stuff if the deal worked out.. Just right time and place and I'm sure they wanted to get it gone for the floor interest. I had given up on these fockers, but just happened to call on this one... Gave em my offer and wanted no add ons. They first came back 5k over adm like everyone else here, but later called back okay with my offer. Of course not a Raptor R or 37, but I finally got someone to take my fair offer. It was a 2.5 hour drive, but got it yesterday. I feel your pain, I went through a month looking through the BS.

@jeffm8882 Год назад

I’m in South Florida. Im in the market and I’m getting markups from 10-20k still today.

40k on raptor r. They laughed me out of the dealership.

@zachsiebers5742 11 месяцев назад

so the 2023 I just put a $500 hold on has a priority code of 20. Do you think that means I will neve see the truck assuming I have heard people who have ordered 2024s have promised delviver dates of early December?

@bobbygfl 11 месяцев назад

My truck was finally made and delivered. It came in without heated steering, which is very annoying to me because of the blank on the dash. I left my deposit until about a week after they received it trying to decide if I should buy it or not because it was a 2021 pricing. I decided to pass and got my hundred dollars back almost immediately. so in my opinion, if you have an order like what you’re describing, it will eventually be made. But it may come in different than what you ordered. It’ll take a long long time.

@zachsiebers5742 11 месяцев назад

I’m also wondering how Ford will handle the production and transition from 2023 - 2024. It’s my understanding the strikes stopped production of all F150s. Typically by this of year the next model years are already showing at dealers.

@douglasfernandez7996 2 года назад

@bobbygfl 9 месяцев назад

Yes, if you can get an allocation and order a vehicle, you are most likely going to pay the actual price of the sticker. Recently though, I’ve noticed trucks come in without stuff randomly that was on the order. For instance, I’m trying to get an R however one came in with no heated steering. Just random stuff they leave off because they don’t have the parts. Anyway, as long as you get an allocation and actually order a vehicle you’ll get it for that price. The problem is Ford uses up all of their allocations for themselves so they can put them on the dealer floor for $10-$30,000 more. You walk into a Porsche dealership and you can order any car you want. You wait a year or more but you can usually order these cars. Ford is a different story. The dealers do not give out the allocations, and they keep them for themselves.

@mspencer9 2 года назад

I want the truck as well however after purchasing a model 3 direct from Tesla I do not have the time nor desire to deal with these stealerships. They try to make money on the purchase price, the extra’s in the finance office, the crap interest rates they offer you and your trade in if you’re the kind of person who partakes in that sort of activity. I just want the truck at sticker price and maybe a $500 discount for being active duty military for 16 years.

@bobbygfl 2 года назад

Agreed! It’s crap. I hope they all go direct.

@AgentGeo Год назад

Great summary. I was just at a dealership yesterday trying to negotiate on an incoming 2023 Raptor that hadn't been claimed. They are giving me almost MSRP for my less than year old Tundra TRD Pro but the dealership tried to lowball me there so the top dollar for the trade is starting to collapse. Also the interest rates are crazy right now. The best i can do at my bank is 5.99 to 7.59% depending on term limits with excellent credit. Dealer mark up/premium...they are so unwilling to even take a penny off of that it's sickening. Every other F150 on the lot was 5-6K under MSRP. The only 2 vehicle they charge the markup on is the Raptors and Shelby Mustangs. When it comes the top of line models/trims it's take it or leave it. I will try your trick on the warranty stuff cause that's where the dealerships really make their money. Thanks.

In November 2021 we purchased a GEN three raptor. We live in Southern, Arizona, and I had to fly to Mobile Alabama. $89,000 at the door then back in Arizona text title and license was about another five-ish love the truck exhaust rattles. They have fixed it once still rattles. Don’t try and run cheap gas in this truck. Forde says you can but I said you can’t.😮 coming up on two years of ownership, still watching raptor videos and love driving this truck every single time I get in it. 63 years old owned a lot of motorcycles, cars and trucks never have been able to say that . We live in the Sonoran desert, so we take it out on the trails and haul ass. The border patrol does not use Chevys or dodges out in the sticks. They are running raptors. We’ve posted a few videos of this truck. Can’t imagine someone not liking these trucks . Thanks for posting.
