I don't know about a true wizard. Your going to get your best deal on a 2006 model if you can find one with the options you want. Dealers will be looking to move these off the lots. I spend my week searching online at all the local dealers in my area for trucks that I want. Then Sunday when they are closed I go scout out all the dealerships and see which trucks are truly still on the lots. Once you know the truck is there go to www.nada.com and configure that exact truck with options to find your invoice price. That is usually the target you are going for. However, if they have current dealer discounts and rebates going on you want to figure those into your price. Basically have a realistic number that you want to pay when you walk in and don't budge. Don't be cocky or anything just let them know you are ready to buy right now for this price etc... I hope this helps you in your quest for a new vehicle.

Just bought a new 2007 F-150 XLT 4X4 Supercrew.
 
Options...
5.4 L engine
Towing package
Adjustable pedals
Black platform running boards
Electronic shift on the fly
sliding rear window
Fog lamps
Keyless entry
35.7 gal fuel tank
Prem cloth captains chairs
Sat radio (6-months)
 
MSRP: $33,340
Price Paid before tax + trade-in: $26,661
Dealer: Scarsdale Ford, Scarsdale, NY)
 
Price paid included $3000 factory rebate and additional $1000 invitational rebate direct from Ford Motor Co. The Ford invitation to take an additional $1000 off the best deal I could arrange came in the mail to my home. It seems to have been precipitated by my exploration of F-150's at Ford.com and may also reflect that I was a current Ford owner (Taurus) before purchasing the truck. Hope this is helpful.

CORRECTION: that was a new 2007 Ford F-150 XLT 4x4 Supercab, not Supecrew.

A local U.S. newspaper is looking to interview buyers who recently purchased a half-ton truck and understand what factors you considered before making your purchase. If you are interested in being interviewed, please send an email to ctalatiedmunds.com no later than Tuesday, February 6, 2007 containing your daytime contact information.

I also live in Phx Az. What dealership was that, that you dealt with? I have found Sanderson Ford so far to be the best in beating there competition on various models.

I bought a new 2006 4x4 Extended Cab F-150 for $23,900 a few days after Christmas on the X-plan.
 
5.4L V8, Tow Pkg, Sliding Rear Window, 6 Disc/MP3, adjustable pedals.
 
I am happy with it. But I did have the wobble that everyone is talking about. Took it back to the dealer after 750 miles to balance the tire, and they said they couldn't balance them they were so bad. So they got me 4 new ones and no problems since. They are the "General Ameritrac" tires.

Good price on 2006 F150 FX4? by tcope

Wondering if this was in "okay" price. I know it's not a great deal. I don't mind if told it was not a good deal:
 
2006 F150 FX with 9,700 miles (used)
5.4 flex Fuel Engine
20" Aluminum Wheels
3.73 limited slip axle
Towing package
Audiophile package
6-disc CD changer
Chrome Step bar
Power sliding rear window
Overhead Rail Bin
FX4 Luxury Package
   Power Pedals
   Heated side mirrors
   A\Electronic temp controls
   Heated and powered drivers and pass seats
   Leather trim captains chairs
 
Basically I paid $28,627 but I traded in a vehicle that was worth $800-$1000 (not including the fact that it leaked water from the radiator into the engine and water needed to be added every other day) and they "gave" me $2000. So I would say I paid about $27,627 for the truck.
 
Sticker Price when new: $39,865.00
 
Edmonds Listing (as "clean" but truck was _perfect_)
Dealer Trade in: $27,397
Dealer Retail: $32,084

I dont think that's a bad deal. I paid $25K for an 05 w/ 10K miles. Were heated seats an option in 06, not avail in 05. The only option I did not get were the power pedals. However, in addition my truck had power moon roof and backup sensors.
 
Also, purch from a private owner, and saved on the conveyance fee $120-$350.
 
Enjoy your truck!! Hopefully, you dont have to fill up the tank that much. Oh, use cruise control as much as possible, for some fuel savings. I have varied 1/2 hwy 1/2 rual at 13-15.5 in New England.

I don't know man, I have a post somewhere in this thread I believe on what I paid. I bought a 2006 FX4 Screw on Jan 1st. sticker was something like $38,500 or so and I paid $26,500 before TT&L with no trade-in. This was a brand new vehicle with 12miles on the odometer.
