I found a truck that I liked, got an Edmonds Truck Price Book, added up the dealer cost of the exact optioned truck, and offered them $500 below dealer cost (not MSRP). Boy were they mad; I left and came back for a week. They eventually sold it for this back in February. It was easy to get them down to dealer cost; harder to go below. My philosophy is: If they aren't mad, that you could have done better. It has worked for 30 yrs. My opinion only.

hey that sounds like some good info! i just go an email from a ford dealer and they quoted me 23,500.00 with carbon fiber trim for the inside. i wonder how much deal cost is? im trying to get 0.9% interest

i want it fully loaded but not the Lariat.

 

write down the sticker info (MSRP), then go to a book store and find a dealer cost guide.

I BOUGHT A 99 F150XLT EXT CAB, 5.4, AUTO, WITH POWER WINDOWS, AND LOCKS. 60/40 FRONT SEAT FOR THE EXTRA PASSANGER. WEDGEWOOD BLUE/PRAIRIE TAN. NO CD OR KEYLESS ENTRY(WISH I HAD THEM NOW) THE STICKER ON MY TRUCK WAS $25,760 MSRP AND I PAID $20,500.

 

36racin,
that sounds like you got a great deal! i hope that i can get such a deal! WOW thats 5 grand off! by the way, did you get the extra cab?

i was talking dad and he has a guy that connections though Ford. so i hope that guy hooks me up a good deal. ill post the qoute as soon as i get it.

 

INDANTE,
YES MY TRUCK IS A EXTRA CAB AND YES ITS THE BEST DEAL I EVER GOT ON A VEHICAL. I DIDN'T RUSH OUT AND GO BUY THE FIRST TRUCK I FOUND, I SHOPPED AROUND AND GOT THE BEST DEAL I COULD FIND. COWORKER JUST BOUGHT ONE THAT LISTED FOR 28,990 AND HE PAID SOMEWHERE IN THE 23 RANGE FOR IT. SO TAKE YOUR TIME AND GET THE TRUCK YOU WANT. REMEMBER ITS YOUR MONEY UNTIL YOU SIGN THE PAPERS. GOOD LUCK

 

hey 36racin thanks, the truck that im looking at is running just about what your coworkers was, and i was offered 23,500. so it sounds like i going to get a good deal, NOT like yours but a good one none the less.

DANTE,
HOPE YOU GET THE DEAL YOU WANT. THE PRICE DIFFERENCE MAY HAVE TO DO WITH YOUR TRUCK BEING A CALIFORNIA TRUCK THAT MAY HAVE DIFFERERT EMISSIONS CONTROL DEVICES ON IT THAN MINE DOES HERE IN LOUISIANA. ALSO YOU MAY NOT HAVE THE EXACT OPTIONS THAT I DO BUT IF YOU ARE GETTING THE TRUCK YOU WANT AND YOU THINK IT A GOOD DEAL THEN GO FOR IT. GOOD LUCK

i have a quick question for you all. what is
a "Block Heater",and what is "3.55LS"
im just wondering.

thanks to all, for all your help!

dante.

 

A block heater is a heating element that when plugged in to an electrical outlet will keep the engine coolant etc warm and greatly ease starting in extremely cold climates, Alaska, etc.
3:55 Means a rear end ratio of #:55 to 1
The "LS" Means a Limited Slip Rear End.

 

INDANTE,
I WOULD THINK YOU DO NOT NEED THE ENGINE BLOCK HEATER IN CALIFORNIA. AS FOR THE 3.55 GEAR IT IS GREAT FOR PULLING AROUND A 3,000 POUND TRAILER. THE 2000 MODELS HAVE LOWER GEARS AVAILABLE 3.23 OR 3.27 I THINK WHICH WOULD BE GOOD IF YOU ARE NOT TOWING OR LIGHT TOWING. NOT EXACTLY SURE ABOUT THE #'S SO CHECK WITH DEALER FOR EXACT ONES. GOOD LUCK
