Depends on if you are looking for or need an F150 2WD or a Duramax 4WD.
I don't need a Duramax, so I bought an F150 EB. Couldn't be happier so far (2.5 months).

That all depends on what you will be doing with the truck. Do you need a 4wd work/tow truck, or a 2wd fuel saver daily driver?

Exactly! We can't make that decision for you. Depends on what YOU need, not what we want you to have.

It's a tough question. You aren't just haggling, you are trying to decide between two different vehicles. Haggling involves figuring out what the pros and cons of each vehicle as a total package are, putting a price on that, and then, assuming you are indifferent to either given the right price, figuring out which one to buy.

I'd suggest doing a comparison yourself(I mean actually work the numbers) and figure out what is the best deal on each vehicle, and then see which one they will deal on.

Good luck.

Or he is just trying to start a feud or something.

Those trucks aren't even close in comparison

Why is it narrowed down to those 2 trucks? They're two pretty different vehicles. And it's not like those are the only two trucks to choose from somewhere; trucks, new and used, are everywhere.
