I know cars sales reps bug the **** out of you when they get a hold of your email or phone number so something is strange with the no response.
It could just be because the '15's are a new body style. Wait until the '16's start to come out and they will negotiate more. We just bought the wife a '15 Escape. We don't get any of the special plans and we were $1000 under invoice working the dealers against each other. Then rebates were applied. The '16 Escapes are just hitting the lots. Probably not too long before the '16 F150's will be coming out.

It would be nice to at least get an email stating that they can't do it not just no response.

Maybe because its a '15. Also, on a higher trim level, they're expecting to make a little more profit!


On a '14 closeout, you could pretty much name your price (reasonable).

I got a lot of responses, nice friendly ones. In my emails i stated that i would like to purchase at invoice price, then apply the intensives. I got responses that they would run it by their managers. They asked for what truck i was interested in so i sent the links to a couple of Lariats. After that i got no responses what so ever. i have even sent a follow up but i get no response. it seems as soon as i sent them the link to the "lariats" f150 i was interested they stop communicating. WTF
stuntman, I'm not sure where you live but there is a place in Ohio selling f150s deeply discounted.

Never, ever, ever negotiate with someone who doesn't have the power to set the price. Usually, only the General Manager, Sales Manger, Fleet Manager, and sometimes the internet manager have that authority.

This is not how car dealers want you to negotiate... They want you to pick a vehicle, work with a salesperson, who runs the numbers to the back, comes back with more bs, etc.

If you don't want to cut through the BS and get to the right person for negotiations (which isn't always easy), just use x-plan as mentioned above.
