May be going in to get a Platinum tomorrow, need some help understanding how some of you are getting the discounts you are getting.. Some are saying that I should expect around 15k off on a platinum, but where are those numbers coming from?

Here is their offer, in Houston, TX if it matters.
MSRP - 62,810
Rebate - 1500
Dealer Discount - 8330
Total - 52980
Invoice is claimed to be 57k

Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

 

13k-14k is about the max only on xlt package. That's not a bad deal for a platinum. Might be 1-2k left on the table there.

 

People lie on threads like this all the time, across all forums, to show how good they wish they were at negotiating.

 

I have an x-plan left if you want it.

they don't discount plat as much as XLT/Lariats, i think the deal the OP got is pretty decent for a plat.

 

When I bought mine, all the incentives/discounts were on the XLT. I got an E-mail from Ford offering $10,500 off the XLT's.

 

I thought I got a great discount on around 10k down with incentives on an XLT. They weren't offering big deals on any other package. I also know some people did better than I did, but it isn't the end of the world for me, I'll try harder next time.

You can always try to push a little more but I would say if everyone is pretty happy with the deal but each side feels like they could have done a little better then it's a good deal.

 

15k off a platinum, internet hopefulness!

 

15k off a fully loaded Platinum in Canada is easily done during the employee discount program. Not sure about getting 15k off in the US.
