| I Ordered 2003 Expedition EB fully loaded except for tire pressure monitoring not available yet. Dealer agree to sell for $44,000. Is that a good deal or what? Any comments? | |
| We would like to order a 2003 EB 4X4, most options, live in Madison, Wi. Anyone have any pricing data for this area or within 150 miles?? | |

I just found out from my company that I can buy a Ford on the X-Plan (since they are a fleet buyer of Fords). I am interested in the 2003 Expy Fx4. So I got my number and registered. Looking at the website, I find that I can purchase the car for the A-Plan price + 4% + $150. The question I have is: How do you figure out what the A-Plan price is? I understand that the A-Plan is what Ford employees can purchase the vehicle for. Also, can one generally find that the X-Plan price is better or worse than asking for individual bids through the this website. Thanx in advance for your help. |

| I purchased using the D plan, which is essentially the same price as the A plan. The A plan selling price is actually printed on the dealers invoice sheet. Your sales manager should be able to produce that sheet for you upon request. In my case, I E-mailed various dealers that I found on the internet. I chose a few within 100 miles, who had their inventories listed online. I explained the plan I wished to buy through, provided the VIN and/or stock numbers of vehicles I wanted quotes for, and got prompt replies from each of them. All were very cooperative. Hope my answer helps. Good luck. | |
| Bodyman, thanks for the reponse. Do you recollect how the A-plan price compared to the invoice price? | |
| Roughly $2500 less, I believe. You also get to use any current rebates to further reduce the price. Using a combination of manufacturer sticker discounts, regional rebate offer, and the D plan, I ended up getting mine for around 9K under full sticker. | |
| Bodyman, are you saying the A-Plan is $2500 less than invoice or $2500 less than MSRP? If it is less than invoice, that is a GOOD DEAL! I appreciate your respones. | |
| Invoice. I also did not have to pay the $700+ transportation fee. | |

I managed to get the Premium XLT with a 5.4L engine and a dealer installed DVD entertainment system for $37,000. This was less than the price that carsdirect.com were quoting at $37,300 so I wasn't too upset. As I was re-leasing I also received a $1000 rebate from the lease company. The dealer tried to "fiddle" with the leasing figures to recover about $1000 extra profit for them but I had downloaded a demo version of the leasewizard software which allowed me to verify the accuracy of all of the numbers. Love the vehicle and would recommend to anyone. |

| One of my best quotes from an Austin, TX dealer for a '03 Expy XLT 5.4L, 2WD w/ cloth capt. chair/console is X-plan priced at $30,800(which my employer qualifies me for)--the A-plan was noted at $29,400. Is this X-plan $ a good deal? even with the destination charge included? Anyone know what a "holdback" is? | |
