Sorry to get off on a tangent....I had a 1990 SHO.. (O...frickin boy!) Had it tricked out from the boys at the SHO SHOP in Huntington Beach Cali. 5 speed .....that car was the shi*!!!
Now I've got the Boost!...3.5 liters...twin turbo ....I call it the SHO BRO...all though the F150 had it first!

The 3.5L came out in the F150 for the 2011 model year.
Both had similar but different engines.
Both very strong!!!

I pay the higher rate for three months, because it only cost me 80 bucks, and because I like my salesman. Four trucks from the same guy, no b.s., better price than the other dealers right off the bat first shot everytime, and he appreciates my clean well cared for trade-ins. If he needs me to pay $80 so that he can get his kickback from ford or whatever it is, go for it, I'll do it every time. He's always honest and asks me if I could do that. If your salesman was a dink, and you felt you were being cheated or treated dishonestly, or if you financed a huge amount and the three months savings actually amounted to something, then thats different than my situation. I've wasted more money on much simpler things. Like breakfast.

but your salesman does not get the spiff - the finance guy does. Of course it's your call and your money.
For me i am not loyal to my salesman, the dealership or the finance guy (who lied about the three months worth of payments when I signed but I knew better by reading about it here). It’s my money and I work hard for it. I will get the best price I can for the truck and the financing.
