It's amazing when you put a part number in at 1/2 dozen of these dealers, the variance in prices you get, then the shipping estimates you get.

I find that a local dealer, Varsity Ford, has the lowest prices - and I don't pay for shipping.

Online, Sunrise Ford beats Tasca for every single item I have priced, and as stated, orders over $10 ship free.

I just got my Limited wheel from AutoNation White Bear Lake MN., shipping is cheap since they are just about 400 miles away. I also use Sunrise Ford. Tasca's shipping from the east coast to the midwest is a killer sometimes it's higher than the part I'm looking to buy, that's what they mark up,lol.

I wish I could use my local Ford dealer, but as you read in my original post they were about $140 higher on the same part as Walt Sweeney Ford in Ohio. That is crazy on the difference in price.

I called my local Ford dealer and they want $392 for the steering wheel (JL3Z-3600-LA). I have bought some items from Tasca before, they want $290 shipped to my house. So I checked around. I found it at Walt Sweeney Ford in Ohio for $260 shipped to my house. Saved $30 to spend on other parts needed for the mod. That got me thinking, where do the rest of you buy your OEM parts to get the best deal and not your "buddy" at a dealership or some parts store. The place that the rest of us could get the same price. Your input is appreciated!
I've used AutoNation White Bear Lake and Tasca - shipping to me is a day quicker from White Bear Lake. How did you find it cheaper at Sweeney, do they have a parts website similar to the others? They would be next day shipping to me...

I put the part number in Google, then clicked "shopping". Several options came up and Sweeney was one of them. I live in Illinois and the shipping was only $8.16 for priority mail. Tasca wanted $22.65 for shipping.

It takes a while for some places to update to the newest year model
