I agree with what the others have said, for a couple more G's than what he is asking you could get a new 08 FX4 if you play your cards right. As mentioned 18 is much more reasonable

Put it this way, I just got an almost fully loaded "NEW" FX4 SCREW for $29,000

I didn't get navigation, moon roof, and running boards.

For $21,900 I will sell you my truck and its only got 42,000 miles. They are asking way too much for that truck! I bought mine over 2 years ago with just under 30,000 miles and I paid $19,990 for it, granted it was bone stock but even to get my truck to look like it does now I only have about 22,000-22,500 into it.

Don't think so.

You'd be [very] lucky [may] to get the BASE model of the vehicle you've mentioned, at the price you mention, regardless of how you play your cards.

I purchased my 2006 F150 STX supercab 4x4 with 18K miles from a dealer on Saturday for $17,500 (before taxes, title etc). They were asking $23,400 but I worked them down.
I just kept looking until I found a deal i knew was great.

That sounds like a pretty good deal! But I just have one question... Did you get the salesman drunk to get that deal or did you buy all the Bud Light afterwards

That's pretty funny!!! Yeah I had to stock up for the big game yesterday so I bought it on the way home Saturday and just left it in there for Sunday. I already had cold beer in the frig so there wasn't no need to drag that out...

Because of he 20" wheels you cant really go bigger. the nitto terra grappler only makes a 305/50/20 and thats the biggest it could fit.

I got my 06, XLT 4x4 with skid plates, sat radio, 6 disk changer, towing package, bed liner, running boards, & power everything for 26k. I thought they were bumping up the rebates, if so a FX4 should not be much more, if any, than mine was with the current deals available.
