I bought mine for 29373.00 MSRP was 36000.00 Had the deal done in an hour. Priced it on Edmunds and took dealer invoice minus rebates and that's what I offered them. WoodHouse Ford Blair Ne
#46 of 383 Is this a good deal? by rav4man Jun 25, 2004 (11:51 am)
So you bought a $36,000 truck for only $29,000. I did too, bought a new 1999 150 for $29,000 in 1999. Now the truck has 65,000 miles on it. I'll have a hard time selling it for $11,000. That is .28 cents a mile just in depreciation. I also had a $750 brake job at 60,000 miles.   Now I learned something. If you are trying to save money, do not buy a new truck or car. buy a used vehicle 2 years or older so the depreciation has slowed.   Pay cash, do not finance. Put bare bones insurance on it. Drive it 2 or 3 years and sell it for not much less than you paid for it. I learned something. Rich people drive old cars. Poor people drive new cars.   I drove the new ford, cannot tell the difference from the old body style. Just has everything square inside instead of oval, and the rear bed is harder to get stuff out of. Replies to this message: flowerfaerie (Sep 07, 2004 6:40 am)

can't argue with your logic some of of us are suckers for new cars I guess   part of the depreciation hit you have incured is due to the New F150. When the new style hits the show room floor it always subtracts from the older style.
#48 of 383 Depreciation hits by rav4man Jun 25, 2004 (12:44 pm)
Yes, there are millions of the 1997-2004 old body styles out there. Because of that the new body style will also plummet in value as more are bought and the used car market has old and new body styles to select from.   There is a lot of satisfaction in having the new body panels and nice, new. It is such and incredible premium we pay for that.   The prices on the new style are also much higher than the old. We simply do not know if the truck is built any better or if the manufacturer has devised more profit per vehicle.   Don't get me wrong, I want want want the new style but it is such a high price on my future.

Just purchased a 04 F150.   ford.com website information: base MSRP $27,935 + options + destination = MSRP of $29,365, invoice of $26,150.   Edmunds TMV others are paying: $24,029 after $2500 rebate.   Paid just under $23,400.
#50 of 383 $9,000 of MSRP by aspesisteve Jul 05, 2004 (4:17 pm)
all I know is what I read in the paper   LA Times this weekend ran adds (2 at this price) F150 supercab's at $9,0000 off MSRP. Factory cash back was bumped up to $3,000 plus $500 for a graduation discount, $1,000 FMCC cash back and the rest dealer discount.   Don't ever let a dealership tell you they're loosing money on a car - even if it's below invoice - there's soooo much fluff built into their pricing model it's wacky.
#51 of 383 go figure by aspesisteve Jul 05, 2004 (7:20 pm)
I tried to buy an F150 XLT Supercap at a dealer a couple weeks ago at $7,000 off MSRP as advertised at their competitors. He said he would match the deal only to back out once I showed up with my check book in hand (said he must of misunderstood me - said he couldn't possibly sell a car an lose that much on the deal).   That same dealer, just 2 weeks later is now advertising ALL F150 Supercabs XLT at $8,500 off MSRP.   I'm a little disapointed that I may have passed up an additional $1,500 in discount, but more dissapointed as to how a dealer will lie to you and even let you walk off the lot to go buy a truck at more $$ at someone elses lot. Go figure.
#52 of 383 f250 supercab xlt diesel deals? by mrjjgittes Jul 12, 2004 (4:22 pm)
I've been seeing some unbelivable deals on f150s in the paper lately. "9 grand off every f150 supercab", and the like. However, I am really interested in an f250 supercab, 4x4, w/ the powerstroke. I've seen stickers at $40k for an xlt f250 supercab 4x4, which I'd love. Anybody have any opinions on what a good ultimate price would be on one of these? Or is hoping for a great deal on a diesel just too much?
#53 of 383 xlt deals by aspesisteve Jul 16, 2004 (8:57 am)
hey, mrrigets,   Paper today advertises all super duty F class trucks at $8,888 off MSRP at Sunnyvale Ford.   can't see why this wouldn't include diesels.   good luck
#54 of 383 my experience by jbaril Jul 23, 2004 (8:36 pm)
I bought an '04 Ford F-150 XLT Supercab, options are 5.4L V8, AM/FM Cassette/CD, 3.73 ratio, keypad entry, electronic 4x4 switch, MSRP $32,725, Oxford White, grey cloth interior.   I paid $25,564.00 out the door, including all taxes and fees, AND including a $4720 overallowance on my trade in order to pay it off. I figure it's close to $14K under MSRP.   The catch? It was hail damaged. But what a great truck. I can spend around $3K to get it totally fixed, but I think I'll just replace the hood, which is the most visible of the problems.
