Raptor market becoming flooded!

[Myke98]

I really want to buy one of these so I have been watching the ones for sale since they started showing up. Current search on Autotrader show a bunch of available BRaptors starting at 109k and up, there are a couple at 125k that have been there at least a month. Almost every few days another one shows up available on there. I have no issue paying 20k over for one and I and hoping they will get down there after the 1st of next year.

They will, I doubt it even takes a few months for them to be 95-100k. It’s a luxury buy that most aren’t taking on since it’s a box on wheels that gets bad gas mileage. I love them minus the fender flares

here's the thing. if you have between 1 and 10 million dollars it won't hurt your bottom line and you can get one.

Frankly, you should have an issue paying $20k over for something that should sell at MSRP.

If they aren't selling at MSRP then they shouldn't be selling at MSRP though?

F150 Raptors have had ADM for years. The Bronco Raptor ADM isn't because of a chip shortage. Pretty much every dealership that would sell a Bronco Raptor at MSRP has a multi-year waiting list. You either pay ADM or you get on one of those lists and wait for your turn in 2026.

If you shop around, I'm willing to bet you will find one for 20K ADM in the next 12 months. It may not be the exact build you want though so as long as you're not picky I think you will manage.

 

[GreenLantern]

Exactly. I'll wait my turn, even if it's years.

Also, F-150 Raptors started accumulating ADMs because they became susceptible to people buying them just to flip them. Dealers want in on that.

I am morally opposed to ADMs.

Lots of those are either sitting at MAP or in transit

That's fine but keep in mind prices have already gone up about $5000 for the Raptor MSRP this year. If you wait 4 years to buy a Raptor it may end up costing the same or more as if you had just paid ADM.

Only if some is actually offering them at MSRP. Otherwise the price is what someone is willing to pay, not what someone is asking.

Limited edition Fords have had ADM for well over a decade. This is nothing new and won't go away.

I agree ADM at 20k still works. Ford speciality vehicles hold their value. I think you will find one especially is you move quick and are willing to pic it up or have it trucked to you. It is hard to find serious buyers for vehicles over 75k that don't need financing.

But the raptor isn't a limited edition... lol

Maybe its not technically labelled "limited edition," but they are projecting 2,000 to 3,000 per year for one of hottest vehicles around. Dealers only get very limited allocations. How is that not limited? lol

From Ford regarding the heritage LIMITED edition:
"Ford will limit production of the Bronco Heritage Limited Edition to 1,966 units "

There is no limit to the amount of Bronco Raptors that could be produce, the only thing causing ADMs is greedy people, and clowns willing to pay the ADM.. It's not that hard.

So, they can arbitrarily decide to announce an arbitrary limited number of Heritage Limited Edition Broncos and that's fine for ADM.

But they make a similar number of Raptors and that is not o.k. because they didn't stick a "limited" label on it?

Saying there is no limit to the number of Raptors they could produce is just semantics. Everything about the Bronco is limited, and the Raptor is surely going to be made in relatively small numbers.
