Just picked up my 4x4 SupCrew XLT, 5.4,w/Lim Slip, Class III Tow Pkg, 6 CD Chgr, for $31695, and made the dealer throw in a bed liner 4 free.... Bought it off the lot in BayShore Long Island, NY... Got Lucky, Saw it Friday, took it for a spin; put $ down on Monday, drove out with it Wednesday...
Ordered my Super Crew yesterday 3/22/00. Got it for invoice (exactly what Edmunds and Kelley Blue Book list), except for $130 advertising fee and $18 for gas. Order shows a Priority 10 and the dealer is saying around 6 weeks for delivery (I hope he is right, I can't wait). This was at Roper Ford in Seneca, SC.

dpg7314: If you've ordered a Lariat 2-tone you may have a bit of a wait. my dealer informed me 2 days ago that those are currently on production delay. I ordered feb/28, and have yet to get a build date, although it's been serialized, which should speed things up once the hold is lifted.

Interesting! Ford, the SuperCrew brochure and numerours auto web sites say the Lariat does not come in Chestnut. Lariat available in Gold, red, blue, green, black or white!

You are correct. I tried to order Chestnut/Gold in Jan. and was told by the dealer it wasnt available in Lariat! In Feb. i got the SuperCrew brochure from Ford and it clearly says on back that Chestnut not available for Lariat. This was confirmed on several web sites. However, FordVehicles.com now lets you custom build the SuperCrew and Chestnut is available. You have entered order so you know all this. I was just trying to help.

Virginian,
I looked at my brochure when I got home and you are correct. It is not in there. I touched base with the dealer and he said it must have been added after the brochures were printed. He said my truck is definitely on its way. He has not heard of any hold up on the two-tone paint. He said he gets an update on any holdups each week and has not seen anything stating a problem, but will check on it. When is the problem supposed to be cleared up?
Thanks for the info

I guess I'll take the honor of posting the highest admitted price paid DAMN!!!
It took me 3 hours to get them to move from MSRP!!!
I finally struggled my way to $700 over invoice and all accessories at sales dept cost (whoopie!).
These trucks are screaming off the lot here in San Diego. I was this close (pinching fingers) to paying 32.5K
Finally down to 30.6K (See below for what I got-plus 6cd changer/slider---really everything but the a/v system, moonroof, cab steps, and bed extender) Invoice was 29.9K-MSRP 34.6K
One piece of advice, if you even THINK you want cab steps/bed extender, order them with the truck. They are over twice as much from the parts dept!!!!!!
Good job to all you superHagglers. I have to add that my '91 Aerostar blew a piston rod and I was without wheels (desperate). Talk about piston slap!!! lol Best thing that ever happened to me.

1st SuperCrew Don't feel bad, $700 over invoice isn't a bad price. I hear dealers are charging $2000 over msrp, up here in Orange County. $700 dollars is close to 3% recommended fair dealer profit. Enjoy!
I paid $500 over invoice and got one of their alotment. The said I could get one later at $100 over invoice but I couldn't wait. The dealer is in Austin Tx if anyone is interested. They said they could do more like it. (No haggeling) sp?
BOUGHT A WHITE SC 4X2 4.6 ,L/S, SLD RWINDOW,6CD,KEYLESS,STEPS ONLY WAS ABLE TO GET $1500 OF MSRP TRIED TO TALK WIFE INTO ORDERING ONE BUT SHE DROVE IT AND THAT WAS IT
ALSO GOT A FORD BEDLINER FOR IT FOR $175 INSTALLED. AT LEAST I GOT A DEAL ON THE LINER

There is a reason this truck is called "SCrew".
I think it has something to do with how much you pay vs how much you get.
BUT - they sure are cute.

Find yourself a fleet salesman. Then go see him or her! No haggling at all. My deal:
Turned in my 98 ranger on a lease- 9,000 miles over the limit and FOUR months early. (SHOULD have owed some major cash!!)
MSRP for Oxford White,'01 XLT,4x4,5.4L,bench seat,singleCD,Limted Slip,Power seat,keyless remote,skid plates= $32,100
Actual fleet pricing: Brought it down to $29,200.
Dealer then GAVE ME $1200 for my over mileaged, early terminated (but in good shape) leased '98 Ranger. Then Ford gave me $500 rebate for leasing another Ford....and got extra mileage on this one for no extra charge. I sure could use it.
Dealer made some money for sure, but really stood out from the other dealers (including the original dealer I leased thru) when they wanted to pay me for my excess mileage. So I figure I broke even considering it is not quite $500-700 over invoice. But fleet guys who want to see you in that truck can work some good deals! (HINT: Ask your firefightin' or crime fightin buddies for their union/association's Ford connection)
Very happy with my Supercrew so far, and I dont get those shoulder cramps while sittin in this pick up! I wonder why that is! Oh yeah- your dog will love it! Especially if the dog is small, get the bench seats! Dogs love (Ford) Trucks.

Can someone give me the straight story on leasing. I was thinking about putting $7000.00 on a two year lease, so I can manage and affordable payment. I don't want to "rent" my future Supercrew, in fact I would like to buy it after the lease. However, If I lease the vehicle and get a truck that just was not made right, and has quality issues, I don't want to walk away from that vehicle, only to find out I can barely afford to lease another Supercrew two years later.
Whenever, I talk to dealers, I only get their side of the leasing story. I would like to hear from other owners, who have leased new vehicles. I can alway save more money, and buy a truck next year.
I think I am just leary of leasing. Anyone who can share their leasing experince with me?
Thanks

Don't know how big of a dealer they are. Never been there. All done over the phone and fax machine. But I think they are small. I'm pretty sure Holly Hill S.C. is a small town. Anyway, the extra time gives me more time to sell the Jeep. But I am anxious.

you guys are killin me
a couple months ago i asked the question...
what is invoice? and does invoice vary from dealer to dealer? (just trying to satisfy my own curiosity, as the folks i ordered with do not deal with invoices. i'm an invoice dummy)
seems every one is pronouncing how much they paid over/under invoice, however, that never translates into $XX,XXX. can you tell us what you paid, or is the dealer just telling you "we're giving you this for $XXX over/under invoice."
i paid $28,641 (not including tax and tags). see stats in signature.

The way I figure it, your sticker is $32,050, your invoice is $27,922, making your deal $719 over dealer "invoice".
The dealer invoice is the same everywhere assuming no price increases. There is a Regional Advertising cost of about $150 that the dealer has to pay that does vary some that has to be added to the "invoice" to get true dealer cost. The dealer also has "holdback" of 3% on Ford products, or about 900 bucks additional profit on a Supercrew. There are no additional rebates or incentives that I can find for a Supercrew at this time, but if there were, that would have to be factored into the deal. www.edmunds.com, www.carpoint.com and www.kellybluebook.com all have great web sites that discuss "invoice" prices, rebates, and incentives. (I think I have been reading too much!)
My "deal" was $373 over invoice before the dealers Regional Advertising cost, giving him a profit of about $200 plus the 3% holdback for a total of about $1100 profit.
Sticker $34615 My Deal $30,474

Alright! Where are you guys buying these SuperCrews at or near invoice?!?
I live in the Dallas/Ft.Worth area and dealers are not letting them go for only a few hundred over invoice. Even one local Ford dealer will sell me any car on the lot for $95 over invoice but will not let the SuperCrew go for less than $1500 over invoice. When I called another dealership that has sales staff that does not work on commission, they only gave me $1500 over invoice once I told them that that is what I was quoted elsewhere.
Maybe I need to go to a small-town dealership. I noticed some previous posts mentioned that some dealerships in S.C. had some good deals. S.C. is just a BIT far from Texas to only save $1000-1500 dollars.
Anyone? Hints? Tips? Much appreciated.

Part of it is the "negotiation" process...playing the right cards at the right time, etc. The first dealer I went to wanted full sticker. The guy across town quickly gave me a great deal! Go figure.
Just keep looking. The deals are out there, just go in prepared, make an offer, don't waste time there if it's not accepted. Be polite, but tell them you are not comfortable paying more than your offer, then try another dealer. You will probably get a better deal if you order vs buying off the lot. As production catches up and dealers increase their on-hand inventory of Supercrews, the price will come down also.
Good Luck!
