How much of that discount is incentives and how much is an actual dealer discount?
The Ford dealer here in Joplin has 78 2013 F-150's in stock. However, almost all of them are crew cab. They have 6 extended cabs, all 4x4, 2 with EB and the rest with 3.7's. They are only knocking about 6k off sticker, discount and rebates. They have 20 4x4 crews left, all but 2 are EB, only 2 5.0's. Discounts range from 5500 to 7k, so if you are getting 8k off locally, you are doing "okay".

If you're that close, and we end up having better deals, it can be worth the short trip. If you can get 8 off with no effort, try to get 10k and call it a day. If not, we'll likely be able to get the 10k off down here.

so are you saying even if someone doesnt need 4x4 to go ahead and purchase it so you get more $ when you trade it off? Even though it cost's an extra 4g's when bought 
Ill drive my 2wd and get 2 or 3 mpgs better and save 4g's in the process.
Good luck Op.. As you stated Unless you find a crazy good deal then its probably not worth making a out of state trip.

Just the way you said it about 4x4 values is why i asked the question. Not trying to argue.

I appreciate everyones feedback. I hunt and fish a lot and some places can't be reached w/o 4x4. I know I could be better than $28k but I would have to go out of state and I don't know if it would be worth the hassle. 05FordGuy, where are you seeing the deals on the XLTs?
