Hello guys, checking if anyone has pricing advice on a new 18 raptor.
The Car: 18 802A, twin panel, Ext graphics, hood graphics, carbon, tailgate, 17" forged, tech, heated rear MSRP 72145, selling price 72k otd

Would you bite at this price?

I’ve read several times that TX is a tough Raptor market. I don’t know what all the other fees add up to locally, but under MSRP is the market standard right now. I think it’s a little high for the current market, but that’s me.

I’d bet this is a “dealer stock” truck. The dealers order their trucks fully loaded by an overwhelming margin.

Of the options graphics x2 and carbon are --hugely-- overpriced. Graphics especially. Tech package is worth it, forged / bead lock wheels is discretionary for most, but I think worth having. Moon roof is something you may not want; if you’re doing a crap ton of off roading, you may not want it.

Keep in mind this is an ’18, not a ’19. I’d feel better at closer to 70k OTD

BTW, Welcome to FRF.

Thank you for your insight, I walked because the truck had been sitting for over a year, and had to be jumped. I also hope to join the forum with a new truck!

well, until you have the new truck, and prove so with pictures we’ll just consider you to be the driver of this economical, if homely automobile
