09 Platinum Pricing?
Judgeing by how the 08 Mark LT was priced I can't see it being much more expensive than the King Ranch edition.
2008 Mark LT fully loaded checked in at around $58,500 Canadian up here
and a fully loaded King Ranch edition came in at around $55/$56,000 and the Harley was around that as well so I really can't see them priceing this Platinum
Edition truck much differently than they have priced there line up in the past.
I really don't think they can get away with asking $70k for a pick up with a ford logo on it. The Limited Expedition up here with every option in the EL model prices out at around $71,000 so I can't see $70,000 for a pick up.
The downfall of the Mark LT in my opinion was that people were not going to pay $10 to $15k more for a Lariat with nicer leather and a different grill and now that I have seen the interior of the new Lariat which really is not that far behind the Platinum I can't see there being a $20k difference in price between the two probobly just the same price seperation as the Lariat and the LT was before.
I guess only time will tell but I really hope Ford doesn't think they can sell the Platinum for Cadillac EXT money as then I think the Platinum will follow the same root as the Blackwood and the Mark LT.

My guesstimate was based on an "out the door" price. Even at $58,500, plus 13% taxes you're looking at $67 G's plus freight, pdi, blah blah blah...... so we're close

If Ford wanted $70/75k for this thing they should have left it a Lincoln Mark LT and really seperated it looks and quality wise from the F150 much like Cadillac has done with the EXT and the Avalanche.

I opted for the Nav in my 07 Lariat and will not be opting for it on my future F150 as it serves nothing more than a conversation peace for me in my truck.

Yep, provincial sales tax is 8%, but we dropped down 1% on the GST (5%) for 08 
Edit, I just realized where you're from, so you know the GST part
