Mine wernt. I had to pay for the moon roof. That must be a new offer?

But still even if you got the Moonroof for free your still talking over $50k for a loaded raptor and if you gonna buy a truck like that why wouldt you buy it loaded. I know i would.

The "air photo's" are spectacular. The driver with the S*#t eating grin is classic as well. Looks like a winner. Love the stealthy black version.

Build it here and get the specs in the PDF

http://www.fordvehicles.com/f150raptor/

If it had a Crew Cab Option I would consider waiting.

I forsee a lot of modifications to the stock trucks once the customizers get there hands on Raptor parts.

You paid $995 for the moonroof but you should have received a $1000 Lariat premium discount when you purchase the nav. I'm just saying it is not possible for a "$52k loaded Raptor" to be $12k more than a loaded Platinum when a loaded Platinum is $50k. Some of this stuff won't cost that much. For instance, the $1000 graphics are only stickers and not real graphics and should be a much cheaper option.

You would be supprised at how much people charge for decals and wraps. We got one for our boat done and it was a $3000 option.

Just an example of what it could def have.

Lux pack (leather seats cimate control and so on)$2500
Tailgate step $350
Bed ext $200
Running board $500
Moon roof $1000
Rear view cam $500
Reverse senseing system $245
TBC $230
Nav $2500
remote start $345
Graphics $1000
Engine upgrade $2000
Raptor only options ????? $1000 (upfitter switches and so on)

Thats $12370 extra over base price of nearly 40K so $52 for a raptor fully loaded. Thats $12k more than a platinum can be had for.
Pickuptrucks.com lists the lux package at $1950. The upfitter switches, off-road mode, etc and I believe the running boards are all standard. Nav? Who wants that if you're bashing around in the desert? $1075 for graphics seems way overpriced unless it comes with more than just the decals. We'll just have to wait and see what the option list looks like, but traditionally SVT is long on standard equipment and short on options.

Oops, never mind. I just found the option list as of right now. In addition to the engine choices and the options listed at pickuptrucks.com you have:
Stowable Bed Extender
Tailgate Step
Power Moonroof w/ One-Touch Opening
Integrated Trailer Brake Controller
Reverse Camera
Navigation(requires luxury package)
Power Rear Window With Defrost

Soo...add every option to the 6.2 base price (lux package at $1950) and you get $50,355. Not cheap, but not the $70k some were predicting. That is until you add the $20k markup that dealers like to throw in the mix.

Im just baseing all my price of the ford website for FX4 options. I cant see Ford doing all the options you have to pay for on even the platinum model free on the raptor. They would be silly to give things away and makes no buisness sense. Options are options and if the Raptor come fully loaded for $38k then no one would buy the fx4 if they could get a raptor fully loaded for less money. Also it seems no one on here has ever had graphics made. You would be very supprised at how expensive they are. I had them done before and know how expensive they are. Esp custom ones. It would be great if they were only $200 or so but i cant see it my self.

I guess you are right Barritia. $1000 for the exterior graphics according to pickuptrucks.com Ford is supposed to make an official announcement this week on pricing.

Like people say with dealer mark up you could be talking at least $50-$70. I think there's going to be a limited market for this truck like the gt500 was and there not going to be many dealers stock one so they will knock prices up high so that the people who do want a truck like the raptor will be paying stupid amounts for it. Be nice to have a build and price and and running for it. I would like to know what that things got on it that i could put on my turck lol

I think it's going to be a good seller. People said the Platinum would never sell and now it is one of the most popular models.

"Considering the fact that the cheapest you could get a new F-150 equipped with a 5.4L V-8 would be in the FX4 model which starts at $34,100 before destination and other charges, the Raptor's $38,995 MSRP with destination included is a very good deal." - Motor Trend

It would def sell very well if you could get invoice minus rebates. But when it's going to more than likley have a massive mark up and hardly any dealers have one in stock i think it's gonna slow them sales right down. For the price these these will be selling for you will have a vast more amount of great cars and trucks you could choose from. If i had a spare $50+k i wouldnt buy a raptor lol. I would be looking for a nice audi RS4.

They don't need to be in stock. The dealer can have one for a showroom model and people who want the Raptor will order them. I haven't seen a Platinum F-150 on a dealer lot but people on the forums have found a way to get them. The massive markups is just speculation. It would be stupid to put a massive markup on any truck in this economy.
