The local Ford dealer here has a $25K "market adjustment" on their Raptor; $75K for an extended cab truck is absolutely ridiculous...

It's definitely geared towards that market. Although a local guy that had driven a pre-production Raptor commented that with the roads we have in metro Detroit, it's pretty slick. No need to slow down for or drive around the potholes!

maybe if that included a KB supercharger....but still i would only want to see 5000 to 8000 more then what they have listed

hard to beat a truck with very few changes that can go out and run a baja race....wont say it will win but not much needed to compete

true...local ford has a 4 door f150 with about a 6" lift with rims and tires for cheaper then what u can get a raptor for....but it was still 40,000, only way i would buy it is if it had a diesel because i hate the 5.4

Ford can keep their Raptor and their market price adjustment or whatever it is called. I bet employees don't even see a discount on it.

Nope, they can't get A-plan.... but they aren't having any issues selling them right now.
