good deal??

I have been looking for a newer f150 than my 99 lariat and i found one at my local dealer. I was wondering if it was a good deal? It is a 2007 F150 Lariat
4x4 with the 6.5 foot bed and has 49,245 ,miles on it. There are no cracks and hardly any signs of wear on the seats. They are asking $24,799 for it. I figured yall would know a little better than me. Thanks

They should be able to put you in that truck for I'm guessing $17,000-$18,000, maybe $19,000. I'd shoot them an offer on the low side, I'm sure they got plenty of room to come down.

Is it a Supercab or Screw? Tonneau cover? trailer package? Spray liner, bug deflector? 19,000 sounds a little low I would say 20,000. I usually offer 20% less than asking, settle for 15% with a couple freebies (oil change, wheel covers, bed mat, free detail ) Good luck and keep us posted on your potential purchase.

That is a bit high, but used F150 prices are high today. I would Talk $20,000, and if they offer you $20,200 then take it.

I paid 19.5k for my 2005 Lariat Screw with 55,000 miles back in February. I'm In Connecticut though, where prices tend to run a little bit higher. If you can get that truck for $20k in your area, I'd consider that a heck of a deal, but I don't think it's all that great at $24.9. I know I certainly wouldn't pay $5,500 over what I paid for my truck for it.

Definietly a bit high, Like the others have said: try and talk them down to 20k or a little less.

Thats normal price around here as well. My screw listed for 24 with 46k on it and its just a XLT. Would I pay that though, heck no. I'd pay 18 minimum.
