FX4 Lease Offer by jpcarter
Jun 14, 2008 (11:13 am)
Reply
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

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!

f150/tundra by carbuyer34

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

05'F-150 Purchase after Lease by dstrange

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

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.

Im trying to find out what I am going to be looking at on a lease for a F250 with a MSRP of 42k and 2500 down - they are to expensive to purchase and I would like to get a price on a lease.
 
Also considering a F150 for 38k with a lease price if anyone can give me an idea of what it would be .... Thank you!

I need F-150 Lease Help by mattnday

I am a business customer who is trying to get the best lease possible on a new Ford F-150. I have several questions but will start with the offer I am considering today:
 
2008 F-150 4X4 XLT CREW
MSRP 39160
Invoice 35596
Track Lease - 42 months - 7.62% - Residual 35% -
Payment - $560.58 + tax
Drive Off of First Payment License and Tire Fee ~1050
Cap Cost - 28344.55
Cap Cost figured with a 5800 rebate and ford a plan pricing of 34144
 
Questions:
 
1)My company has used red carpet business leases and track leases in the last 12 months. Apparently they don't care which direction as long as we get the necessary miles to not get killed on the back end. I drive ~30k per year. With today's programs is their a definitive advantage to redcarpet vs. track?
 
2)I am trying to get the same dealer to quote me this vehicle on a red carpet business lease to see how the terms change. Can you give me the current red carpet business rebates and money factors for the f-150 for 2008 and 2009 models.
 
Thanks in advance for any and all help

Hi mattnday. You're in luck. Ford extended the Employee Pricing offer that it was running in December through January 12th. This means that you will be able to get an excellent selling price on the '08 F-150 that you are interested in without having to haggle.
 
Wow, you drive 30,000 miles per year . That's a lot of driving. I believe that the highest mileage allowance that Ford Credit offers is 19,500 miles per year. If you need to drive more than that, you will have to purchase additional miles on a per-mile basis. It is less expensive to do so at lease signing than it is to wait until lease-end and have to pay an excess mileage penalty.
 
This may be a moot point though, because I don't believe that Ford Credit is offering Red Carped leases on any '08 models other than the Edge at this point. Most banks pull the plug on lease support for leftover models late in the model year because the residual values are so low at that point that providing enough support to arrive at a reasonable payment is very expensive.
 
Ford Credit is leasing the 2009 F-150, but as you know it has been redesigned and it is a completely different truck than the 2008 model. Ford Credit's current base lease rate and residual value for a 39 month lease of a 2009 F-150 SuperCrew 4WD with 19,500 miles per year are 3.5% and an unattractive 36%, respectively.
 
As you can see, Ford Credit publishes lease rates instead of money factors for the vehicles that it leases. You can convert its lease rates into approximate money factor equivalents by dividing them by 2400.
