Called down a list of 15 dealers this weekend. They all come across so jaded and heels dug in on the 15k market adjustment.

For what it’s worth, I have worked in software sales for 7 years and the buying commmitees/people we sell to literally experience “solution exhaustion” where they are evaluating too many things, and end up just being really poor partners. I can’t make a direct analogy, but a part of me thinks that some of these dealerships are exhausted by the calls they get on these vehicles. Every dealership I called had one, some 3 available. Not willing to move off $15k.

A consultative seller won’t use a blanket market up, but rather spend 1-2 days asking the right questions in order to provide the value intended by the manufacturer and at some point sell the product. IMO

I found one in Iowa at $5k for out of state buyers and if you’re local they will waive that. Considering that news anyone who desperately has the need and the $5k, Antoinne was the individual I spoke to. Im back tracking to find the dealership name now so I can be prepared to refer.
You didn’t want it for 5K over?

No, I paid under msrp for my last two trucks and currently sitting on a well equipped 2019 802a

I’d prefer to get the color, combo and price of my choosing even if it means ‘23

Epic! So glad someone can beat the taxes here in CA. Nice work!
My family is from there, it is a nice hookup! I would rather just the leave state but the wife unit will not leave here unless I talk her family into moving also, or they all kick the bucket ‍♀️

Lithia in Boise and Twin Falls have both been $15K ADM on Raptors, I've bought 2 trucks from them this year. "Antoinne" is either full of shit, or would've pulled a bait and switch when it came time to pony up and actually buy the truck.

I got my Raptor through Morgan Hill. Based on many other's experiences, I was lucky; my truck showed up in about 6 months...MSRP. I was paranoid throughout...thinking they'd slap an ADM onto my truck at some point, but they never did.

Before I ended up with Morgan Hill, I called about 2 dozen dealerships covering the western US. As you know by now, it's a bit of a numbers game. I just submitted orders through any dealer that was willing to talk to me about selling a truck at MSRP.

Thank you I’m glad I posted something

Gary Crossley Ford - states he has two 2023 allocations at $10k over. I hope I did not lose by credibility by sharing what Antoinne at Lithia stated, but this is another email that came in a few days after I hit them up. This was emailed to me on the morning of 7/19/22

If anyones interested in getting in the order banks earlier than others for '23
