Due to the average price being $70,000 the 2017 Ford Raptor sales are down 58 percent.There are over 800 of them sitting in dealerships.The ford truck buyer of old can no longer afford the over priced trucks.

There are lot sitting on lots tho. Depends on the dealer. Theres a smaller dealer near my work (Orange County CA) with about 12 sitting there. I went to kick tires on them and they are stuck at 15k over firm. Some have been there for over a month. Not exactly selling like hot cakes...

The problem, at least at this particular dealer, is that with the initial hype you had 1-2 guys with deep pockets willing to pay whatever and the dealers thought they represented the masses. This dealer bought up all kinds of allocations, probably at 5k over or something, forcing them to sell at 15k ish over. Greedy ass dealer....

Well,
I am willing to pay MSRP today if any dealers are seriously interested in selling a vehicle. Long gone are the days when the majority of people are willing to play that game. There are too many good alternative options out there for that to last. As a Ford shareholder, I think this reflects poorly on the company as well as the dealerships. If they are willing to do that to their potential customers, what happens after the sale?
