Hello all first post here.

Been saving my pennies and just stopped into my local ford dealer. Looked at a new 2014 screw limited short bed. Msrp 55,605 after sitting down and working numbers got down to 48,020

55605 msrp
51520 invoice

-500 college
-2500 ford finance
-500 for something else not quite sure

Doing a search to a wider area I have seen these trucks down in the 43 range but pretty far south.

Is this a good deal? Great deal? Suggestions on a better price?

Once again thank you for your time/experience/advice!

Is that OTD? Seems you should be able to get them lower. I payed $48k before TTL for mine and it had an MSRP of $56k way back in July.

48020 is before TTL. The dealer called me an hour or so ago and dropped another thousand. So down to 47,020.

I've seen posts where people are getting 12-13k off. Another member told me that's usually for xlt's.

Do you know of anyone else's experience with purchasing limited or platinum models?

A large Ford dealer here in the Twin Cities is listing Limited models for $46k - $47k after rebates, etc. Platinums are also around the $46k mark.

The more expensive the model the more room they have to reduce the price (more markup for king ranch, platinum, limted, etc). The only exception here is the raptor in which they have us by the ***** because everyone and their grandma's want one. So they dont typicaly negotiate on these. With a whole new f-150 coming out soon theyre trying to clear inventory. So, if you wait for the 15s to start showing up, they may be more willing to come down further.

I dont know how the dealers are where youre at but around here theyre advertising the platinum and king ranch models at 10-12k below MSRP and thats before negotiations. I would say you could do better.

Not sure what the difference is between a Limited and FX4 but the dealer where I bought mine has FX4's that seem loaded to me w/ sticker prices of $53k-ish marked down to $38k-ish...That's $10k less than what you got quoted and the FX4's appear to have everything. Check out Fairway Ford in Ohio....worth the drive to me.

just checked our local ford dealer they got the fx4 down to 38 lariats at 40 and king ranch at 48

Lots of posts like this, you may want to do some reading.

You never say where you are, rebates differ by geographical area. You can find them online quite easy on the Ford site. If you go with Ford Financing for 0%, you lose nearly all rebates except the college rebate, if you go for higher percentage financing you would get any financing rebate, but $2,500 is too high. Go to http://www.ford.com/trucks/f150/2014/incentives/ and see what your actual rebates are.

Invoice + $500 - REBATES is a fairly good place to look at. Saying anyone got anything off MSRP is just silly talk, because it ignores rebates that vary by season and geography. XLT is the majority of the rebates as you noted.

Lot of expense for someone in/coming out of college.
