Going for my first f150.
Found at the Ford store "no haggle price" a 2002 supercab xlt, v6, manual trans.for $18,800.
Also in the same color,is the same truck with moonroof, 6cd ,tubular step etc. for $20,600.This is the only dealer in the SF bay area that has a lot of stick 6's.I really don't need the 8cyl. or automatic.Just wondering from anybodys experience out there if this a good package for the price?Has a nice clearcoat blue metallic.Im going to use as a daily driver, except on weekends when I pickup 1200lb skids for delivery.
I could get the 4.6 for more money but am wondering if the 6 has proven itself.
Thanx in advance.

Try Henry Curtis Ford in Petaluma, thats where I bought my truck.

 

Brand new for 19K is not bad at all. Although a stick can be a pain in the @$$ to drive in traffic.

 

18,800 is not bad at all for a new truck. Although I would go for the V8 and the auto will help the resell.

 

Get it with the auto tranny, especially if you plan to go into the city at all. The clutch on the F-150 is really whimpy and if you're at all sloppy with your clutching and shifting, you'll burn it out in no time.

 

I would think that is a good price, too, but I am kind of patrial to the 4.6 auto...
