[QUOTE="The Macf, post: 759505, member: 8084"] Started looking for a new vehicle in mid 2010. I remember the first one I saw was a black scab with graphics package and at the time thought, "oh look another lifted F150" had no idea what it was and was still set on a SRT Cherokee or 5th gen 4runner. Got orders to Germany and knew that AAFES had a vehicle discount so I was all about it. V8 Challengers for $24k, The new SRT8 Cherokee came out and was $60k, used 09 and 10 Cherokees for $30k, 4runners for $35k but couldn't be custom ordered, they were everywhere, but couldn't commit due to either something not right or just wasn't perfect. Still kept looking at that Raptor with the $45k pricetag though. Fast forward to late 2012, came off a deployment COMPLETELY debt free, made my next stripe to E6, got divorced and as soon as everything was official, I walked into AAFES and said I want a Raptor. They were offering 4-1 deposit match and had a $1500 rebate to boot. Ordered it up exactly how I wanted, financed $49k, and said hope I like it. Showed up 4 months later and have never looked back. Never test drove only saw pictures and couple that were on the road. I chased down a black scab and the owner let me look inside for a minute. [/QUOTE]
