Go visit the F150forums thread on how much below invoice people are currently paying for their trucks and use that to negotiate. MSRPs are ridiculous.

I had requested a BEST PRICE via online on a 17' F150 XLT 2.7L ecoboost.

MSRP $43.9K

best price after all rebates was $31,838 + TTL.

Another on a 17' F150 Lariat 2.7L that had almost 5K miles. MSRP was $47K and best price was around $40.5K.



Are these crew cab? 4x4?

I had to recheck my email.

From Robinson Ford in B.R.

two different 2017 XLT, 2WD 2.7L ecoboost, White SuperCrew cab

one 31,838, another 33,808 + TTL. Both Sold now.

The Lariat was from Ford in P-ville. I no longer see the Lariat on their website.


New Silver Lariat with the 5.0. $47.8 MSRP, Sales price $41.1K. I bet their best price is around $40K.

Don't discount a Ram. Best engine out of the major 4.

What part angers you? Are you claiming their HEMI engine is subpar?

I have an F150, and I like it, but I would have bought a Tundra if I had wanted to spend a bit more money.

I hear a lot of people post about how much they like the layout of the interior on the Ford, and maybe I'm still getting used to it, but I have the center console, and the AC controls are a bit hard to reach, and the USB ports down in the lower drawer are not something you could plug in if you were moving.

You will obviously get a bigger discount on a Ford or domestic than a Toyota.

Ive been kinda looking for a new truck. I found a dealership offering the ford f150 xl supercrew with stx package for around 27k. Its a good looking truck and the stx package has the bigger radio screen on the inside but doesnt have power seats but does have power windows and locks. Thats about the cheapest I have found for a supercrew without bargaining. It also has fixed console instead of the foldup seat, which may be good or bad. It also has the 2.7 which I am not sure is enough engine... anyone with the 2.7 can comment on gas mileage and power of that engine?

There was a thread on here last week or so about the 2.7l it's apparently plenty of engine.

Another vote for the Ram. At least go drive one and consider it. MSRP on the one I just bought was 45K, got it for right at 35K. 2017 Ram 1500 crew cab 2wd, 5.7, Big Horn package with leather. No way I was getting these kind of options in anything else.

I'm not even 1,000 miles in yet, but I do love this truck.

What kind of pricing/incentives/sticker price you baws been getting on your new rides and which would you choose.


First decide what kind of truck you want (Ford, Tundra, etc) and then what trim level, etc. Once you decide then contact dealers' internet department because that is usually the best price.

I can't discount any of this but then you have a Dodge wrapped around all of that and you are back to shite.

Take a look at Laura Buick GMC. Have bought a few vehicles and had friends buy there as well. If your local dealer can match then you are getting a bargain.
