Hey Guys, a little feedback question

Im trying to get myself back into an f150 after driving my Super10(s10 for the non-educated, ha) for the past year. Ive got my eyes on an FX2 loaded. The sticker on it is 35.9k. Im trying to get it for 26.5k TTT. Do you guys think that its close enough for the 09's for them to bite on my price offer. The dealership wants 28,013 then throw TTT on top of that. However the lot has around 40 F150's and 2 months to try and move them all. Im probably going to end up waiting until they can meet my price, as i dont mind the gas mileage from the s10 one bit. Any thoughts?

I think you have a very good chance. If not, then about August your chances will skyrocket as they attempt to dump all the 08's before the 09's hit in October/November

Look at Costco.Com and find a participating dealer (if you have Costco around). They cut almost $8k off my trucks sticker with 0 haggling. I then got $5,500 off in rebates.

but yeah, Dealers will wait 1-2 days for you to cave in, and then usually if you're still interested, they will play ball.

Good luck. Hope you get it.

Dealers are offering employee pricing + all rebates around here.So I would think that truck at employee pricing is at 31 or 32K with rebates would put you at 26 or 27k roughly.Look at ford website it will show you sticker price & then employee price + rebates.

Tell the dealer to show you the invoice. It will have the A-plan(employee price) on it. Add the rebates to that A-plan price, that is the MAX. you'd pay. Low-ball the chit out of them.

If you have good credit or paying cash, you ought to be able to get a high stickered truck for 10 to 12k off easily. I agree lowball 'em more and see what happen's. The term "Dealer" can apply to the buyer also! Now's the time to buy a truck or SUV if you need or want one.

Actually, you can get a better deal if you tell them you have crap credit and are wanting them to help you finance. They will lower the price based on the points they will be able to take on the financing. Then, when you are with the finance guy whip out the check book or Amex and pay cash.
