Agreed. Tons of scammers and you have to be extra vigilant when the deal is too good.

They first started at $69k when they first came out which plenty of reservation holders only paid msrp. Ford messed it all up when they started price increases every two months it seemed like.

Agreed. That alone would make me pause and think to at least breakout the scanner to make sure the VIN matched

Aside from this scam story. The pricing on vehicles nowadays has gone completely of the deep end. With all to respect for the Ford Bronco Raptor. Having to paying 100K for one is insane. And if that isn't ridiculous enough. Can Am newest side by side will be costing 44K!

It starts at 44k. fully decked out it’s in the $60k range. Crazy for a side by side that’s only allowed on offroad parks and some BLM land. Cant use it on any National Parks or on the road.

He traded it in for a 37PP Raptor in Avalanche, had the truck for a few days before the dealer figured out what was going on. I test drove the truck the day after he brought it back in, had 500 miles on it. Asked the sales guy about the mileage, and he proceeded to tell me pretty much this exact story.

small world that was "my truck" for about a week ya and my bronco. I obviously traded it in yes because I had equity in the truck and 2 in Arizona you save a ton on sales tax. I ship alot of heavy items for my motorsports business. The bronco didnt really have the space so i felt bad banging around lift kits / wheels or superchargers in the back. I really liked the ford raptor platform. So pretty much the F150 made sense plus the 37 package in that avalanche was pretty bad ass. Either way short lived and screwed. End of the day title had my name on it dude agreed to walk into the DMV with me. Once registered to me I released funds.

Damn dude. I’m sorry man. That’s a huge hit to take. How did the dealer find out VIN did not match? Was it after connecting to it or was there any other signs? Also, any word from the registration company you used? Why did they not flag the VIN? What can others do to avoid getting scammed?
