Ford F-150 sales down

I wouldn't go off of a website. The majority of time, they don't get updated to show actual inventory. All the dealerships around me are showing F-150's in stock on their websites but only one dealership has one Platinum. Nothing available since all the dealer order stock is already sold. I tried probably like 8 dealerships where I live and in San Diego before I placed my order. Of all those dealerships, I only found 2 F-150's. A King Ranch and one Platinum.

looks like Ford Canada is not worried about sales...They are now charging $200 for magnetic(?), jacked up the base prices for certain packages (lariat 502A) went up $100 and looks like the base prices went up as well for the lariat. I ordered my Lariat 502a 5.0l 3 months ago and according to Ford.ca the same truck I ordered is going to cost $700 more for the next guy...

my dealer has around 20 of them. they are one of the top 5 dealers in the Midwest. they have had the same inventory for about a month. I agree with most others... buyers are waiting for better prices. loaded up platinum msrp of $60k cash price of $56k. King ranch a grand less across the board. lariats $50k plus cash price.
I spoke with salesman today when we were looking at expeditions. He indicated a lot of lookers but nobody biting on the new F150's.

Why stop at $700...Ford Canada should jack up the already "jacked up" prices a few thousand dollars on the 2015's. When it's time to buy, I won't be loyal to one brand and will cross shop.

I ordered a new 2015 on Monday and really hope rebates jump by the time I buy. I won't hold my breath but people have gotten used to getting at least 5k in rebates on an XLT year round and more than that when it is time to clear out old inventory. I suspect there are just too many 2014's on the lot to justify discounting the 2015's. Hopefully in the next 90 days that will change.

Not selling well in Chicago either. Some of the first to arrive are still on the lots, including one I considered buying 2 months ago.

I have only seen 4 2015's in the wild since they came out. I don't think our local dealer has sold a single one yet. They seem to always have the exact same inventory.
