[QUOTE="rwjr, post: 295483, member: 8729"] Hello. I finally registered after browsing for awhile. I've been interested in a Raptor since they were introduced, but have a general hatred for new vehicles. They are mostly overpriced and cater too much to lazy, inattentive drivers. Now that I have that off my chest..... There was one car that I felt was worth buying new, even though overpriced. I bought a 2008 Bullitt (#1554). I still prefer my old cars/trucks - 68 Mustang, 67 Barracuda, 78 Bronco, and 79 Bronco. You actually have to DRIVE them and pay attention to stuff. These new cars are too easy to be distracted by phones, radios, nav systems, etc. But, that's the way it is nowadays. So it's taken me 2 years to finally decide I might want to try out a new truck. Of course, it has to be the Raptor. I've been building it over and over on Ford's website because it's fun. Even bid in the mid 40s on eBay on what I am interested in. Today, after several emails, I finally stopped by my local dealer to inquire about ordering a new '13 Supercab. Blue Flame with box accents, 801A package, moonroof, and blue accent interior comes to $51915. Dealer handed me the printout with 48 and change scribbled on the bottom and said he'll also give me the hood graphics for $740. About $3500 off MSRP right off the bat. Kinda sweetens the water a bit. I'm thinking I might acxtually try to do this thing. I'm gonna try for another $1-2k lower. Any thoughts? Any other options I might regret not getting? All I can think of as a possibility is the front/rear camera package, but I don't know if I'll EVER use it. .....and thanks for having me!! [/QUOTE]
