Check with forum member Randy. He works for Ford in fleet sales. All the members of that forum swear by him and won't do business anywhere else.
Might be worth your time to check him out.

Hey,
Most out of state dealers cannot offer a CA emissions vehicle.
However, call Robyn, in the Internet Sales dept. at Redlands Ford in Redlands, CA; it is really not that far up the road (SR-111 to I-10) from you in beautiful downtown Calexico!
I was stunned at the deal she offered me on a factory order Raptor a couple of weeks ago!
Let us know what she says!

I had several communications with her (see one below) and am only holding off as my wife and I are looking at houses right now and I don't want to mess up the FICO, or the budget until after we close escrow. I am still looking at the Raptor but also the FX4 as I want the EB.
...I am excited to share with you that I am a no hassle, no haggle, no games dealer and that is why so many Raptor buyers have been completely satisfied in working with me. On average depending on the options ordered the price below MSRP (Monroney) is over $4,000 off.
I offer a straight forward $500 Over our Invoice cost, Plus T&L. Please let me know if you would like to move forward and build and price out a Raptor if things don’t work out for your local dealer and we just need a $500 deposit to secure the order....

If you have a specific example/dealer name where any of us can get one below invoice, please post the name and phone number. Maybe I missed it, but I cannot recall anyone here posting that they bought their Raptor at or below dealer invoice. I think $500 over invoice, not too far away, is a great deal for a great truck.
Thanks.
I venture to guess, there are some on this board, who paid at or somewhat above Monroney for their Raptor in the past year?

Dealers often ask huge mark-ups on "specialty" vehicles, but they rarely get them...
Plenty of people were getting Raptors at a $200-$1,000 over invoice (not sticker, invoice) last year, and with a fundamentally unchanged product for 2012, I don't see 2012 being any different. It does seem that 2012 production is a bit thin right now. I was at the biggest dealer in my area, usually has a huge supply of 150's, and they had about half their usually number.
Advice: Don't waste a second of your time discussing price with anybody but the general sales manager or internet sales manager. Not the chump who says he is the acting sales manager, the actual guy. And definitely not the sales droid waiting out front for his next "up".
Also, if you go over to the Raptor forums, there is a sales guy that is pretty popular for getting lots of Raptors and giving no BS great pricing on them. Fly/Drive or have it shipped. It will still be way less than paying some local dealer a ridiculous price.
