Tell them to sharpen their pencils. I just bought my 07 FX4 Supercrew (4 real doors) 4x4 for $30,800 out the door tax title everything. The sticker was nearly $38000 without adding the tax and all their other b.s. fees. This is a brand new truck. They knocked about $10 grand off. Keep shopping, the 07s are already a year old as soon as you drive it off the lot. IMO it's the best time of the year to buy. There are ALOT of incentives, just ask to see them. The dealers should be begging you to take an '07 off their hands. Good luck and don't be affraid to walk away. They hate it when you say you're going to leave. Stick to your guns. Check www.forddirect.com It's Fords official website!

Forget the 0% financing, look at the bottom line

Here is my example, we were offered something like 3500 in cash or 6%

Since we tend to pay off things long before the note term (we paid the Porsche off in one payment, the bank hated us!) it was better for me to take the 3500 from ford, add it to my down payment, and use my bank at 5.25%

If you have decent credit, you can do better with your own financing and beat the dealer down on the price. The 0% is just added to the price.. Ford is pre paying the interest and adding it to the selling price... there is no such thing as a free lunch!

Look for 07's if they are still on the lots. I got my 06 in October of 07, XLT with factory plow prep, 7 1/2 foot fisher plow for 25 grand out the door.

an 08 would have been 37 grand for the same truck. I could have had a f250 for less money.

None of them, buy used. The market is flooded with off lease F150's. I just bought a 2005 5.4 XLT Ext. Cab 4x4 with 26,000 miles for $16,000 from a dealer with 10,000 miles worth of warranty left
The truck is absolutely pristine, like new condition. With deals like this out there I'll never flush my money down the toilet ever again buying new............

They even had a crew cab 4x4 Lariat for about $19k with even less miles but I didn't want a crew cab.

are you eligible for the A/D/X plans? With them, you pay invoice, no dealer fee, and have access to know exactly what the price of the truck will be with the plan and/cash back/off and with the eligible financing rates that are directly available with your corresponding beacon score...I got my truck at 4k off sticker and got a really low interest rate and payment I was comfortable with. But, may I ask why all of the fully loaded options? At the sticker prices you stated, all of those trucks have EVERY option. Are those options something you actually want or need? No matter how we slice it, the sticker prices you listed are way too high for what is basically a year old truck. The last of the 2007 trucks rolled off the line in feb/march, while the 2008 models have been in production since may. The trade off is just that, if you plan on trading it in, you have the benefit of possessing a 2008 model rather than a 2007, which will technically be worth more...Then again, its your money.
