Once they do, you can probably get that 10K off the '13.


Maybe even more off of a 2012. Sometimes they get hung with a few of these trucks. My last truck was a 2008 2500HD and it was $11,600 off sticker since they had 2009's on the lot. Not buying another chevrolet though. Truck had less than 60k miles and was starting to give me trouble. Kept eating glow plugs, dash cracked, power locks not working, radio speakers went out... not what you expect in a $50k truck.

me too on my Silverado 1500...went through 2 transmissions. Not buying another GM.

So far, the best price I've gotten is $53k for a '13 F250 King Ranch with roof and nav...sticker is $64k....I think that's the best I can do...

What kind of interest rate did y'all get? I understand everyones will be different depending on credit. Just wondering how low Ford Financing was willing to go.


Shitty through Ford. It was like 4-5%. Like some have said, it's almost a wash with the incentive they give you.

After the 3 months required, I refinanced through neighbors and got near 3%

I didn't have any problems w/ them, but I was buying used. and this was 3 1/2 years ago. They didn't want to give me the best deal on financing, but I was prepared and had worked w/ my credit union before. They even put the Saints playoff game on for me and my mom in the lobby and pointed us in the right direction for a place to watch the rest of the game before we drove back to LA.

We'll go used on a truck and it'll be strictly for hauling. And the trailers I'm looking at are in the $6-8k range...so not THAT bad...

I've got a year to mentally prepare...and the only good thing is that Foley is far away from the majority of them. And there's lots of snowbirds, so it'll be more of a mix than say...tuscaloosa. I couldn't live there. couldn't do it.

Mac Haik


I bought an 06 KR from them.
We made the deal and I flew in to pick it up.
I told them just don't put dealer stickers on it or gloss on the tires.
Guess what two things they did?

Also had two thumb dents in the tailgate (this was a brand new truck).



Knuckleheads.

Same here

I got about 5% from ford and refi'd immediately with penfed

I got a 1.49 the week before they upped it to 1.74

Only a few bucks difference but still

Don't fret over fords interest rate

It was a PITA. They took money off for the dents, washed the truck and took the stickers off.

I loved that truck, but hated the crappy 5.4.

Diesels are too heavy and too expensive to maintain for some people.

It was an F-150, but your comment still fits.

That was just a poor motor, IMHO.
