Still riding the fence on a new truck. I am keeping tabs on about 5 dealers inventories. Really wondering what the 1st of October will bring.

Why ? Why not? I don't want a truck already a year old. I'm sure some of the problems I have been reading here are corrected with the 05's. Do you really think the 04 is exactly the same as the 05 ? This being my reason in itself.
I'm also sure they will be willing to wheel and deal as they always are eager to sell , besides , how and why would they not want to talk invoice price ? Please explain , is there something I'm missing ?

Don't wait till October 1.... by trucker50

If you think waiting till Oct 1 for a better deal you'll be sadly mistaken....you can't beat the blowout pirces and finacing they are offering till September 30th. I thought the same thing last year and couldn't believe I could buy a vehicle cheaper in Sept. then Oct.(as it was previous model year and they needed to blow them out)..made no sense.
On a related note my brother-in-law works at the Explorer plant and he's NEVER seen it this slow. Word is incentives are costing Ford to much(with marketing etc) and they are considering scaling them back after this round and start controling inventory with production cutbacks..of course what GM does will probably effect what they do

fx,
go ahead and prove me wrong if you think you can match the same deal on an '05 as an '04 - more power to ya. You are showing your years though thinking it's a slam dunk
 
some people have been getting $10,000 off MSRP on '04 models - I doubt you could come close to that on an '05.
 
-have you heard something about the '05s that say there's something new? The truck was completely re-modeled for '04.
 
My guess on the '05 for changes would be color choices, maybe a different tail light cover. As for problems with the truck - I don't believe there is anything that has become a major issue.

Incentives by phkck

Guess Ford is extending current truck incentives until Oct. 04. 72 month financing ends Sept. 30th though. I am keeping an eye on the inventories, things just do not seem to be moving.

Incentives extended by jrossow

It looks as if the $3,000 cash back incentive on 04 models has been extended through 10/4. I tried to get an XLT with the "Tow & Go" package that has $7,000 in incentives, but they're entirely gone in the midwest zone.
 
There are still some FX4's here in Michigan, but the deal isn't as good. My dealer says incentives will probably increase on 04 models in October to clear them out entirely and 05's will gain incentives in November.

$10,000 off in Texas by steven8

MSRP $35,765 less $10K in Houston. F150 Supercrew Lariat 4x2.
 
FMCC financing cash of $1,500 now bonus cash on Supercrew only per dealer and you can now finance with whomever you want. Dealer not quick to disclose this as they will hand you a open ended financing company contract and not tell you its not FMCC. They will select financing company after the fact so watch for that. You can re-finance a week later anyway so no problem if you sign their contract and find a better rate 3 days later. Just re-finance and the dealer will get a charge back.

I was told by a sales person friend that they are having a hard time selling , Period.
I doubt that I could do the deal on an 05 that people are getting on 04's , but I still believe they are open to dealing just to make a sale. Things are tough for sales people in the car and truck industry ....hence....time to deal

Invoice according to Edmund is $36,108 (not including bed liner. Also any thoughts over black vs arizonia beige.

I don't know what part of country you live but you can bargain more. In twin cities, the rebates are $3500 and $1000 finance. You need to press the dealer give up dealer holdback which is about 3% MSRP by telling him that he can still make money by using his employee discount and bonus for selling that truck, dealers get a huge bonus for selling year-end models. Do not fall in the trap for free bed liner, I received my free GPS and $7000 off from invoice price for my 2004 F-150 XLT, the guy I deal with is internet saleman, if you're not afraid of buying out of state, you can try some places else. You can probably buy that truck for $30,000. Good luck!
