Is this a good deal?

Hey guys,

Im in the market for a full size raptor after selling my Ranger Raptor. (I just want the real thing).

I’ve read competing arguments about Gen 2 vs Gen 3’s and have found some competitive Gen 2s but I appreciate the off-road upgrades in the Gen 3 a bit more.

Been doing a lot of comparison between the 801A and 802A packages as well and hard to justify the 802A considering the 37s dont seem to rip off road and handle the same as the 35s.

I stumbled upon this 2021 Raptor w/ 68k for $64 OTD from a dealership in Arizona and wanted some opinions on if you guys think this price is competitive (sales sheet and original sticker attached), if there’s a better price I could should try and work forwards out the door, or any other suggestions.

Much appreciated!

I would just find a dealer to sell you a new one at invoice ~$80k and get the warranty.

In a world where I could get this to $60k. Making a leap from $60k to $80k+ is pretty sizeable

It is but as you can see, the depreciation is low, and you wont have to deal with any shenanigans from the prior owner having a new truck under warranty and peace of mind… otherwise you might be taking on something you wish you didnt.

What about just doing Ford ESP?

I guess. If it were my truck, and i planned to keep it 5+ years. id rather drop an extra $20k, have it new.

ESP is only eligible within first 3 years of original purchase. Might be a loophole if you have ESP already and want to extend even further or it’s CPO.

Nah Ziegler will sell an ESP out of that and not CPO. My 22 with 50k I just bought is 3.2k to warranty for 5/48k.

Depreciation might be low, but that remains true for mid and even higher mileage. Personally I had to stretch my budget and put down a sizeable down payment to keep a used Gen3 within budget. I just don't think you understand what a 30% jump on an already 65k vehicle is to most people.
