Hell must have froze over because I am going to a Ford dealer today to see about trading my car in for a F-150 or Sport Trac. Not sure they can get the payments where I want them but if they can I am getting one, and if they can at least get me enough cash to pay off my Impreza. I really wanted a Fronteir or Tacoma but Toyota and Nissan just don't have all of the overstock 2006's like Ford has so from what I hear Ford is giving awesome deals on F-150 leases so we shall see.
 
You should be able to STEAL a truck with a V8 from any dealer right now. All they are selling is the tiniest most economical compacts. Beat them up good, they have to get rid of these trucks.
 
I went to Ford the other day to see about trading My Ranger for a F-250 diesel..and they are giving the trucks away...the 2006's...they 07 are coming in and some are in...so get your best deal..go at the end of the month..they will work better with you..meet quota for the month then...

Well, we need a truck. I have a 2005 Impreza and my wife has a 2006 Impreza so we will still have a Subie in the family. ;)
 
Look at Toyota Tundras. Toyota is giving great deals on those things as well. I bought my '06 in January and got a deal about $2000.00 better than Ford. With gas prices and the new '07 Tundra coming in Feb. Toyota has a lot of incentives on these trucks. I love my Tundra!!

Yeah I looked at Tundras but none of the dealers around me have any 06's left. I live right near detroit...Big Three capital of the world. I can drive 5 minutes and pass 2 Ford, GM, and Dodge dealers but had to drive an hour to get to a Subaru dealer. ;)
 
My boss just traded in his 98 F-150...its a work truck, 158,000 miles, tranny about to go...they offered him $4,000 he said bump it up to $6k and he would buy...they gave him $6,000 for it. His payments for a 06 F-150 with only the trade in value put down are only at $120 a month. A fricken steal...Good luck!

You sure about that math? How much did the truck cost and what were his terms? That seems awfully low. :nixweiss

Positive that was his monthly payment, but maybe it was a lease vs buy?? I will ask him tomorrow morning when I see him about his terms and what not. If I remember correctly he said these payments were only for 2 years? Then they probably sky-rocket :chuckle:
 
Yeah, Ford always has a ton of F-150's sitting around from last year (2006) and they dump them cheap.
 
What model are you looking at? My brother bought a fully loaded 07 F-150 Lariat, he ended up with a price 2,000 above msrp. They also gave him 19,000 for his 04 F-150, the engine was about to go on it. They must be desperate for sales out here where I live.

2006 Is what I am hoping for since they should be wanting to give them away. But we shall see. I have a feeling I am getting my hopes up and I am going to come homeempty handed.

My money is on you'll be coming home with a vehicle tonight...Don't be afraid to tell them what *you* need in terms of negotiating to be willing to make the purchase. It seems like they are bending over backwards with incentives and what not...Good luck Bob, please bring home a white one :woot2:

White? I was hoping for black so I can pi$$ and moan about getting another black vehicle! LOL Yeah, hopefully they have some killer deal that blows me away. I for sure won't get it tonight because I first have to make sure the insurance will be lower than the Subaru, which it had better be. Then if the deal is good maybe this weekend or early next week. I was wanting to go look at a Silverado too but I compaired the two on Edmunds.com and the Ford got better reviews and ratings.

Thanks!



A local Dodge dealer is having a killer deal right now. I am sure it is only for Chrysler employees but it is something like buy a Caravan and get a two year lease on a Dakota for free.
