Do you have a relationship with your dealer to know about this upcoming allocation? You paying over MSRP?

that is the plan.

But a Raptor R is too rich for your blood? Something doesn't add up.

it’s called being smart. Why blow my load on 1-2 cars when I can have 3 really good cars? I have 3 cars now and all 3 will replaced. I was not planning on getting into the gen3 raptor but used car prices are insane right now. My 2019 raptor is 2.5 years old and I am getting the same amount I paid for it 2.5 years ago. Once the gen3 raptor comes out the gen2 raptor value will most likely drop.

so for an additional 10k I can have a gen3 raptor in my driveway? Hell yeah .. this is a no brainier.

I am sure the raptor R will be a special vehicle with special pricing. Have you checked gt500 pricing? Minimum 20k adm and I have seen 50k adm. just because I can afford a 100k car does mean I should be stupid with my money.

My dealer has 2 allocations. One for a 35” and one for a 37” package. I am getting the 37” package.

Congrats! I was about to post that Ford has 2 types of allocations ... one with 68R (37s) and one without. I am not sure why Ford is doing this (commodities or controlling how many 37s are produced ... maybe a bit of both). I would imagine that customers scoring an allocation will be upset that they can't get 37s.

What color are you getting? I assume Code Orange as the seats have orange stitching to match the paint.

BTW ... I was told by another dealer that there will be only 2500 2021 Raptors so your 37s will be a rare/limited spec.

I am going with Code Orange. I have heard that there will be commodity constraints through 2022 with the chips etc.
I am glad that I have some great guys that I am dealing with.

1 - I am paying sticker
2 - This is my 3rd Raptor from them ... 2013, 2019 and soon 2021

Raptor allocation is a mystery too everyone .. including the dealers. Regional Reps contact their prospective dealers and tell them they have an allocation and that they have a deadline to submit their order or the allocation will be taken away.

In late 2018, my dealer called me and said we were just given 3 allocations (24 hours to act on it) and asked if I wanted one. I submitted my order right away.

Got the same call on sat morning and was told the deadline to submit the order was June 10. I sent my order to them 5 hours later:

MSRP >> $64,145
Destination >> $1,695
Code Orange Color
801A (note to self ... includes Bundle Package, Convenience Package, Tow Tech Package) >> $6,195
61C - Carbon Fiber >> $995
96W - Spray in bed-liner >> $595
18T - Power Tech Package >> $1,995

Total >> $75,620

BTW .. another dealer told me he his rep said that there will be only 2500 2021 Raptors. I can't confirm this number but given the late production start to due to covid and also a shortage of chips so it may be true.

Not sure if you seen this video but it is very detailed.

let me find the pic for you of the hybrid warthog testing for you.

Those cables are not hybrid. Look at every Ford test mule on the road. They have the same cables. Those cables do not make this a hybrid mule.
