[QUOTE="Ridiculous Markup Raptor, post: 1129420, member: 23251"] Hi guys just joined to toot my horn because I am very upset.I like the 2017 Raptor a LOT! Unfortunately its SUPPOSEDLY still too high in demand,I have contacted 15 different Ford dealers in Southern California and ALL are asking $10-15-25k over msrp!!!One thing is certain:I am NOT paying ANY markup on a truck already approaching $60-75k from the factory,are these guys smoking crack that they think they can bamboozle me into paying $80-90k otd? Lets pretend for the sake of discussion that I smoked some crack and actually agreed to pay their full asking price.Won't the Bank or Financing Co.say "hey how can this truck this guy is buying go from a msrp of $62,000 to $77,000 is he getting $15k in dealer installed options?"it would very likely cause them to reconsider the interest rate due to "high possibility of default"or not even grant the loan altogether? Also the INSURANCE issue in case the vehicle does get stolen by some Mexican Drug Cartel members and taken South of the border or totaled because I was playing Baja 1000 too hard,my insurance will only pay the book value without the added markup thus making the payoff $15-20k short,I do know its possible to BUY additional coverage but not for free,about $80-100 a month additional for gap insurance.A dealer salesman in Fontana was the most reasonable,he said"I can notify you about our Raptor inventory after market has softened,but riight now it is still too volatile"I have just about given up altogether in searching and have considered buying out of state but it is sort of complicated as I have a trade in and need the vehicle to be CA emmissions compliant etc.If Toyota,Chevrolet,Dodge Ram or Nissan come out with a direct competitor to this truck I would seriously consider them as long as they dont play Ford Dealer's stupid games.
