Replying to: jollymonsrv (May 16, 2008 5:26 am) Hi jollymonsrv. Let be begin by saying that $4,000 is way too much money to put down on a lease. I always advise consumers not to make any sort of down payment on leased vehicles. Those who do, risk losing it if their vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered. Even though it means that your monthly payment will be slightly higher, you will be much safer going with a zero down lease.   F-Series sales are falling off of a cliff. It has been the number one selling vehicle in the U.S. practically every month for nearly the past two decades...until May when it was outsold by the Honda Civic, Toyota Camry, and Toyota Corolla! Look up this truck's exact dealer invoice price in the New Vehicle Pricing section of Edmunds.com and pay as close to dealer invoice minus the available cash incentives as possible.   Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
#131 of 137 FX4 Lease Offer by jpcarter Jun 14, 2008 (12:13 pm)
Hi, just left the dealer with this offer:   FX4, sticker price $40,690 - purchase price $34,000 / $2,500 down $343.24 per month / 24 months-- they will also throw in bedliner ($216)   They are telling me the money factor is 1%, Residual is .57, 10,500 miles a year,   For some odd reason they are using $41,385 as the MSRP to figure the residual...has to do with a $695 discount on the sticker for captian's chair???   From looking at the papers it looks like the $2,500 included the first month's payment.   Can you let me know if this is a good deal. I feel there should be a little more of a discount but they insist this is the bottom line.....   Thanks for your help. I am in central NY Replies to this message: ron48164 (Jun 15, 2008 7:30 am)

Replying to: jpcarter (Jun 14, 2008 12:13 pm) 34K for the MSRP of 49,690 sounds close to a-plan price. I don't think you'll get much better. The 41,385 on the lease is because it's figured before the tow and go discount. This actually helps you . 2500 downs knocks about $125 off the monthly payment.   I myself will not put anything down on a lease, just the 1st payment at signing.   My wife check check our local dealer, residual is .57, money factor 1%, came our at about 400/month for either the super cab or super crew (better money facor on the crew). I have z-plan access, but the with employee pricing for everyone, they lowered the rebates, which actually hurt me. Seeing we're paying 240/mo for our 2006, we decided to extend the lease for 2 months, and hope the deals are better in August, when they'll need to unload the 2008 for the new design of the 2009's.

this doesnt sound like a deal to me.   2008 F250 Super Duty Crew Cab Lariat trim   MSRP $51285, negotiated price $41477 using employee pricing offer 36 month lease w/18k miles per year no money down except first month and fees (about $890) residual of 47% with a finance/lease rate of 4.75 % Tax rate 6.25% $795.00/month   Would love some input--just doesnt sound like a deal to me and the residual seems low.

I'm looking between a 2008 Tundra and 2008 F150; I'm planning on doing a 3 year/36K mile lease and want to know what I can expect the Ford dealers to wheel and deal on for the following;   2008 F150 SuperCrew 4WD XLT with 5.4 and Shortbed Invoice: $31K What is the money factor this month and the residual on these trucks? What can I expect to pay at a very good deal?   I live in Milwaukee, WI 53227 and the sales tax is 5.6%. I'd like to walk out with just paying tax, title, registration, and 1st month payment. Please help!   Thanks! Replies to this message: Car_man (Aug 18, 2008 3:07 am)
#135 of 137 f150/tundra by carbuyer34 Aug 14, 2008 (5:49 am)
endlessmoto, I turned in my 2006 f150 xlt supercrew in may. I feel the tundra is a much better truck. The engine blows away the ford 5.4 plus I'm getting close to 17 mpg mountain roads and 19mpg on the interstate. The double cab is smaller than the supercrew but still plenty of space for my bulky body. I also like the interior styling much more comfortable and feels more soild not the plastic feel i got from the ford. At the time the tundra was the best deaL I suggest at least trying the tundra I have the SR5 pkg. and opted to not get the TRD pkg as i mainly stay on the pavement. Good Luck
#136 of 137 05'F-150 Purchase after Lease by dstrange Aug 15, 2008 (6:09 pm)
My lease is up at the end of this mo. I would like to purchase the truck. The residual value is $15,720 and Ford Leasing and dealer are not willing to negotiate that number, even though they will whole sell it out at a much lower cost. Any guidance

Replying to: endlessmoto (Aug 13, 2008 8:07 pm) Hi endlessmoto. Ford Credit's current base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 F-150 SuperCrew XLT 4WD with 12,000 miles per year are 4.75% and 45%, respectively.   If I was in the market for this truck right now, I personally would shoot for a selling price of a couple hundred dollars over dealer invoice minus the $3,250 cash incentive that Ford is providing on leases of this truck in your region right now.   Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
