re: Buying a new car

Edmunds is a very good site to use. If you choose the options of the specific vehicle then it will tell you an approximate invoice price.

I just built a 2012 F-150 XLT 4X4 with options that would reach a $41k MSRP. Here's the link:

Click the button "Get true market value pricing" and it will give you an approximate invoice price. Very accurate. You could get it for around invoice price minus rebates. They are currently:

$5,000
in Total Savings
+
$1,000
Ford Credit Bonus Cash
+
$750
Trade Assist
For 2012 Ford F-150
SuperCrew 5.0L V8
w/ XLT Convenience, Chrome & Tow

I think it is $1000 less on the rebates if only a V6 engine (not 100% positive). Also, I do not believe Edmunds rebate information is correct. I pulled the rebate info off FordVehicles site.

Edit: $500 less on rebate for a non-5.0L V8. Just found it.

I know you have covered this before but where is a good place to search online for invoice prices for dealerships?

For instance, say a 2012 F-150 XLT 4x4 is stickered for $41k. What would be a rough estimate on what the invoice would be for that truck? $10 or 12K under sticker?

im looking at an ad right now for all star in denham that has 12K off msrp for f150 xlt crew

obviously its for a particular stock number noted on the ad, but i dont think you'll have too much trouble getting a similar deal on any 2012 with the same msrp or higher

msrp on this particular vehicle is 38865
