#203 of 205 Re: Why Buy the 6 Cylinder Engine [daryll44] by mtnman1 Apr 04, 2008 (10:26 am)
Replying to: daryll44 (Jan 22, 2008 5:43 pm) This is kind of off the subject. I have a 2004 Mercury Mountaineer V8 AWD with the Luxury Package. Moonroof and Roof Rack Crossbars were the only options added to the already loaded vehicle. I have been trying to sell the thing for a month now and I'm getting nothing. No calls or inquiries. The thing only has 35,800 miles on it and it is about 99% flawless inside and out. The original MSRP was over $37K and I'm only asking $14,500 which is negotiable. This is well below what I see online at Dealerships which are asking between $16K and $17K. I've been looking at a new Outlook XR or a Highlander Limited and have worked out deals, but when we get to trade in they are offering ridiculously low deals. They tell me that in today's market with gas prices so high, V8's with AWD are not highly sought after, I'm just warning people that are considering buying new should plan on keeping the vehicle until the wheels fall off because you can't sell them. I've walked away from both deals disappointed, but had hoped I could find a buyer on my own. Absolutely no luck.
#204 of 205 2008 Ford Explorer Limited 4x4 v6 by chuck123 Apr 23, 2008 (1:42 pm)
Please reply to thoughts on pricing:   2008 Ford Explorer limited. 4k in dealer rebates (3k buy incentive + 1k for finance)=4k MSRP: 39650ish Adjusted MSRP: 35465 Opts: Sync/sun-sirius/Nav/power run boards/electric 3rd row fold/powered running boards....all other opts standard like 18" alum wheels and leather/   Taking off the 4k haircut I get adjusted msrp of: 35465 I was offered about 32600 with another 2k tax+tags+dest = out the door 34600   According to kbb avg price was: 33120 so I'm a littel better by about 500 dollars. Dealer invoice is listed as: 36752...guess only the 1st 3k comes off dealer invoice??   Still attempting to negotiate with multiple dealers (who I believe have now contacted each other )   I bid 32k "out the door" really hoping to get a little budge...got noth'n. What do you guys think? I don't believe you can look at the first price of almost 40...you have to look at it from the adjusted msrp as well as dealer invoice price.   I heard a sales guy from one lot tell me they have not sold an SUV in 2 mths...not surprised with gas at almost 4 dollars a gallon. This was when I was looking at the edge....which for just a front wheel drive was more expensive than this truck.   Love anyones opinion...was going for a cheaper truck...but the decked out limited is crazy on price and the Eddie Bower with equal features is close to same price.
