Default I really want it!!!!! HELP!

I bought a new 2016 Lithium Grey XLT with the 3.5 ecoboost. It has pretty much every option...FX4, Roof, Sport Nav, etc etc sticker was 51k now .with 15000 mi...perfect truck..I drove by the local mega Ford Mart today and there it was.... the world ceased to exist. Thinking 2nd mortgage or what ever cause my first son is grown and gone so that's not an option.....Just off the truck a Magnetic Metallic Raptor sticker 67K. I'm going in the am and see what they'll do. I've heard of dealer mark ups and some discounts...My truck is payed off....any help greatly appreciated....

I agree its not clear what you want from us.
Do you want us to talk you into buying the XLT or the Raptor or none of the above?

All i got to say is we're on this planet once and thats for a short time.

Whatever you do, DON'T BUY THE RAPTOR!!!! It is overpriced, the dealer will tack on items you don't want, it's increased width will make it harder to maneuver, and the thrill of ownership will wear off in six months. It is a VERY BAD IDEA to even consider, especially if it is financed. You will be doing your future savings a huge disservice.

Get it! I have the same truck. Maybe trade your 2016 in. And see what it will be? If they can offer you Msrp, take it, I don’t see you getting any better than that at the moment. Did you happen to take a pic of the sticker?

I have seen some Raptors around without any of the add-on options and accessories. Is it loaded ?

You will need this as you will get raped on trade, and even more so on the price of the Raptor.
