Over the past few years – with supply failing to meet demand for select new vehicles – we’ve seen dealer markups become more prevalent than perhaps ever before. This has been true of many Blue Oval products, in fact, as everything from the Ford Mustang Mach-E to the Ford Bronco and the Ford F-150 Lightning have launched and subsequently faced massive markups for months and even years thereafter. Thus, with the all-new 2024 Ford Ranger Raptor reaching dealers over the past few weeks – and both it and the regular Ranger receiving rave reviews thus far – perhaps it isn’t a surprise that the high-performance off-road pickup is also being slapped with big markups already.
A quick search over at Autotrader reveals a large number of 2024 Ford Ranger Raptor pickups listed for sale at various dealers across the U.S. – many of which have sticker prices of more than $80,000, in fact – a pretty shocking sum given the truck’s base MSRP of just over $55k. The worst offender, at the moment at least, is Power Ford of Albuquerque, New Mexico, which has one 2024 Ford Ranger Raptor listed for a whopping $88,380 – an eye-opening $30,000 more than its sticker price of $58,380.
Sadly, that isn’t the only example of a dealer trying to capitalize on a brand new, desirable product, either. In fact, Ken Grody Ford out of Buena Park, California has a new Ranger Raptor listed for $88,060, though in this case, they didn’t bother to list the actual sticker price, which is probably wise.
That isn’t the case with Jim Tidwell Ford in Kennesaw, Georgia, however, which has a 2024 Ford Ranger Raptor listed for $84,805 – a cool $25k more than its sticker price of $59,805. There are many more as well, and honestly, somebody has to be really desperate to own a new Ranger Raptor if they’re willing to pay this kind of price for one – especially since the more capable and larger Ford F-150 Raptor starts out at just over $78k.

Not as impressive a grand total but not long after the Maverick first came to market I came across a listing from a dealership (don’t recall the name) in Texas for a model that would have had an MSRP of ~$27k marked up to (drum roll please) $54k!!! The land of ten gallon hats, tall tales and this!
Want one at MSRP, call crest Ford in Michigan
why does ford let dealers get away with that i for one won’t buy one
Ya, I’m looking to get one but I refuse to pay one cent above MSRP. I really think Ford should step in and tell them if you mark it up, that’s the only one you’ll see….
You are absolutely correct. It is a slap in the face of presumtive customers and it is very negative for Ford as a brand! Such greedy and illojal dealers should be taken off the dealer list.
Greed, plain and simple. But I’m sure that someone will pay it. 50% market adjustment ? Seriously …🤔🤦
You are absolutely correct. Those greedy dealers should be removed from the dealer list. Such prices are a slap in the face of presumtive customers and very bad for the Ford brand in the US!
