Raptor Dealers Selling Near Invoice

$1,0000 over invoice @ Haldeman Ford East Windsor, NJ on 3/19. Probably could have gotten more if I pushed but my family has worked with this same dealership and salesman for over 10 years so I felt it was fair for everyone involved. They have 4 orders after me already so move quick!

Added! Congrats and I hope they have allotments to get yours built. I know my local dealer which gets limited allotments is a little concerned about two orders they have (the first two are good they said. The next two ???). Time is running thin as they're thinking production will be shutdown in August or September but nothing official yet.

Changeover at to P552 at DTP is scheduled for September so I'm guessing Raptor peoduction will be done in late July/early August. And I'm guessing Balance Out will be some time in late May/early June

So now that I know **** Mckenzie Ford in Hillsboro, OR is legit and didn't **** me around. I got my 2014 SE there for $500 over invoice.

Thanks! I was there on Wednesday and spoke to the GM who said their Ford Rep was in this week and told him his retail orders (5) will be built as Ford is cutting off production of inventory units due to the number of customer orders. They told me I'm #1 in line so hopefully sooner than later. I can't wait.

UPDATE: I spoke to the salesman and sales manager today because I got my VIN (yay!). Evidently the owner saw my order and blew his top. Because of the long standing relationship my family has with the dealer, and the fact I lost it when he tried to change mine to MSRP. I had to remind him that I was a salesman at Cadillac until I left 2 months ago and I knew he was still making close to $3000 on my deal, so I'm at $1500 over invoice. Long story short, aside from mine, all orders are now MSRP.

Updated B_Dong. I'd be torked too if that happened. Still a good deal and now you know your Raptor is going to be built. I'm just spoiled working with my local dealer. You just can't get away with that stuff in a small town.

Yea, there were definitely words crossed when I went there to clear it all up and despite everything I threw at them I could tell that the manager had his orders and wasn't going to budge. I can't blame him or the salesman though. They both fought to get me the 1500 instead of MSRP. It is a good deal, just not what I want or agreed on. Ive been in that position before myself where the owner steps in and changes things. He's got me by the balls and he knows it. My order was pulled so what am I gonna start all over at another dealer and risk losing the truck over $500? Won't hurt him at all, somebody will certainly buy it for more than I am. It would only hurt me and my salesman who has been great so I'll save face, buy it for $500 more and no one I know will ever go there again.

If the dealer puts their decal on the tailgate, be sure you remove it before you leave the lot. Tell the salesman to hand it to the owner, along with a bird flip.
