Typical sales BS letter. OP, never had this before? I get them all the time, even from a Ford dealer that is literally 5 Ford dealerships and an hour's drive away.

I just received something similar from the dealer I purchased my Cert PreOwned 5.0 XLT SuperCrew from two years ago.
A portion of the love letter said, "due to a demand for 2016 model F150s, we will... (blah blah blah)".
Why would there be a demand for '16? No real reason, of course; it's just to sell me a new truck, or a newer CPO.
And, of course, I could say, "Because of the new '18 and '19 5.0s that burn oil and have balky 10-speeds?" but I won't.
I will say that my 5.0/6R80 drivetrain is outstanding.

nah, never had one before. I'm currently on the fence about buying a raptor and made a post on here about it. the timing had me a little suspicious. thought it was another case of big brother watching... lol
that being said, I think I'll stick with my 13 5.0 screw and enjoy having no payment next year

I just got one of those on my wife's 2010 Explorer, I know there is not a great demand on a 9 year old Explorer with a 4.0 in it.

My soon to be brother in law just got a letter like that about his Chevy Cruze he bought 2 years ago.
There was even a hand written portion on the letter from the sales guy he bought the car from saying "this is a great deal and I thought you'd be perfect for it!".
Funny how every used car is "above market value".
