Dude, that was a GT500KR (King of the Road). And that wasnt us marketing it up. All the regular GT500's come up to us from the same place (the Factory) Well the GT500KR's leave the factory like normal, and then go to another shop/upfitter place where they're turned in to a GT500KR. And THEY are the ones that add the "addendum". Did you notice the regular window sticker, and then the other window sticker right next to it stating all other special stuff? I'm guessing not.
See the pic below. KR? Nope? Your Lot? Yup. That is the pic I took with my phone to send to a friend, who was considering a GT500 back in 08. I mentioned earlier I was checking them out while waiting on delivery of my GT. I also snapped a picture of the window stickers, I'm hoping to find that and post it here as well. The sticker was not from Shelby or Ford, or anyone else, it was from Sam Pack, and clearly, as I stated had "Market Adjustment" written at the top.
Now, either I'm ignorant (KR vs GT500) the pic should settle that, or I'm a liar or you are mistaken.
Yes, I know dealers do this stuff all the time on limited / hard to get models, if that's what folks will pay, fine. What got my goat was your comment to the effect "that sucks they make dealers look bad".

Every dealer I looked at was stepping on the price too, and the will not dealer trade them. Couple of dealer in TX were selling them at or just below sticker on eBay, but then you have to pay shipping. Kind of a wash. They gave me a couple grand more for my trade, but I am sure I got screwed in the deal somehow. In any case, I love the Raptor, and glad I did it.

I remember that d*mn car! That was one of the ones that (obviosly) had the red stripes..... But there was something special about it cause of the "red" in the Snake emblem....... And I cant remember WHY it was?!?
I actually sold that exact car to a good customer of mine that is now battling cancer.... poor guy (but I assure, he paid NOTHING over sticker). Doesnt matter what the other paper said, it means nothing, i assure you.
We dont operate like that.

When I was shopping, the best deal I found was $3,000 off MSRP and no stupid DOC fees. The trick was to find a dealer that did not have a Raptor is stock and negotiate a price to have them order a 2012....
What I did was make up a list of what options I wanted and I got the email address of the internet sales person at all Ford dealers in my area. I sent all of them my request in an email so that they could see that I emailed the same request to all other dealers. I simply said I would buy the truck from the one that offered me (in writting) the best deal....
Competition is your best offense when negotiating price....

I was at your dealer just the other day and you'll have a boss 302 LS which entirely a factory setup and there is a 10,000 market adjustment(dealer markup) on it.
