Got it for $25k and change after the bazillion rebates and on Z-Plan (dad's retired from Ford)

No FX4 package? No Bucket seats? Meh.


Kidding, I really, really like the new Fords, just dont get duped into racing for pink slips with a Titan.

Hey, I need a truck I went cheap (if you can call that cheap ;))

This thing is rigged for towing, not racing. My momma didn't raise no fool :p

I gotta agree with Sluggo. $32k for a truck is not cheap. For that price you could have gotten the FX4.

Before I bought my car I wanted a F150. I priced out a CC XLT (I think) w/ the 5.4 as an option for like $22-23K. That's cheap. $32K is not. :p

Yea. That quote must be real old or a old style non 4 X 4. Mine is a 2004 and the window sticker was a shade over 32K

what i think is really awesome is that you paid over $30K for the same basic truck that generally sells for less than $15K towards the end of the year. would you pay 30 thousand dollars for a Honda Civic? even if it had 4 wheel drive and a slightly bigger engine? no? i wouldn't either. i also wouldn't pay $30,000 for the same glorified bucket on wheels that ford thinks is only worth as much as a Civic.

and what's even more awesome is that ~$30K could have bought one of the following infinetely cooler cars, any of which would be more fun, (WAY) less common, and have more prestige:

Infiniti G35, Mazda RX-8, Mercedes-Benz C-class, Pontiac GTO, Audi A4, BMW 3-series, Subaru Legacy GT, WRX STi, Saab 9-5, Volvo V70, Acura TSX, Cadillac CTS, Lexus ES330, Nissan Maxima, Mitsubishi Evo.

hey, you did invite the enviro-nazis. ;)

Some people purchase an auto for more than the "cool" or "prestige" factor...

If you can find the same truck for 15K...please share your secret:confused:
