    how far off MSRP should we expect a 2011 Lariat 5.0v8 4x4 to be? list is about 47500... would like to lease but need to know what to shoot for.

    same as in february... about 11-12000 off?

    What should I expect to pay for a DEMO Lariat limited w/ 5K miles? MSRP = $52K, asking price is $44.7.

    I'm always hesitant about demos because for the most part they are used vehicles being sold as new. Anya advice would be much appreciated.
  • carguy137carguy137 Member Posts: 1
    I can't tell you what to expect to pay on a demo lariat limited, however, I have recently called around in Texas for a new f150 lariat and the best I can find is about 7k off MSRP with financing through Ford, anyone else getting better than that? Thanks

    Hello! I am about to purchase a 2011 F-150 XLT 4X4 w/ 3.5L EcoBoost motor from a dealer in the St. Louis Metro area. Here are the details:

    2011 F-150 XLT 4X4
    3.5L EcoBoost motor
    Convenience Package
    Convenience Plus Package
    Tow Package
    Chrome Package
    6-month SAT radio service
    Spray-in bedliner

    Sticker = $40,730
    Purchase price = $34,945

    This is well below the True Value figure from Edmunds. Thoughts or comments?

    Thanks in advance!

    F150 crewcab, XLT, base V6, chrome package, MSRP $36k. Advertised in the Houston Chronicle this past Saturday, the 27th, for $24.5. This required captive credit, and a trade in ($500 trade allowance). This also featured a $1k allowance for the base V6 engine, which I don't really want, but the $1k incentive means the turbo V6 will cost you $2.5k more. I was all ready to sign when they tried to screw me on my trade in.

    Oh, well, the deals should get better over the next two months. The left over 2011's should really have big incentives in October (they certainly did last year).

    Looking to purchase an F150 Platinum Truck and with the rebates and ford financing getting quotes of $7400 off MSRP. This does not sound like a deal to me on a $51,XXX priced vehicle. Any suggestions? I am willing to travel for the BEST PRICE!
  • fueledupfueledup Member Posts: 64
    For a truck that holds it's value like a balloon that doesn't hold air thats a bad excuse for a deal. If the truck has 5.0 v-8 you should easily be at $12,000.00 off msrp of $51,000.00. If truck has eco-boost $10,000.00 off msrp is a fair deal. If michelle bachman gets gas below $1.00 a gallon then the reverese is true on the two engines.
  • travel4momtravel4mom Member Posts: 10
    Any leads on which dealerships to contact? I agree we should be more in the $12,000 range for a discount! Again, I am in Omaha, but I will travel...thanks!

    I just purchased a 2011 F150 FX4 Super Crew Long Bed loaded up. MSRP of $47,040.00. Purchase price of $37,040.00 after all incentives and rebates from Ford. Researched and put in offers with 6 different dealers until I found the lowest price. Had to drive about 50 miles but it was worth it for sure. Looked at Toyota Tundra but after seeing them on the road wasn't crazy about the styling. Love my F150 so far
  • aguywhowriteaguywhowrite Member Posts: 5
    Price paid $21,500 plus TTL. Southwestern U.S. Very unpleasant experience with high pressure dealer, even though the price was probably not rock bottom.

    Next time: Go ahead and let the high pressure guy buy the inventory and pay the salesman. Then go to low-key place to make the deal; they all share the same inventory, after all.

    I'm looking at a 2011 f150 fx4 also, just wondering what were all the incentives you got so I can ask the dealers. Thanks
  • cwa31871cwa31871 Member Posts: 7
    Looking at some left over 2011 Crew Cab Lariats. There are several of these around in the Sarasota, Tampa, Orlando area. From what I am hearing from dealers is $3k in rebates. I would think one could get 10k to 12k off of sticker on these especially in light of recent fuel costs. The sticker price of these trucks range from $45k to $49k. Does anyone have information on dealer cash or other incentives Ford may be pumping in to make these trucks go away?
  • cwa318cwa318 Member Posts: 79
    Does anyone have information related to the above posting? Thanks
  • tampa2tampa2 Member Posts: 18
    I live in the Tampa area and drive a 2007 F150 Harley. I subscribe to this forum and I'm surprised at how slow it is and the fact there are not many posts. The Honda forum for the Odyssey is great. Anyways, I have been sniffing around and I think 10-12K off MSRP for a 2011 is probably pretty good. If you check autotrader several of the auto dealers advertise as much as 10K off MSRP depending on the configuration. I think these are "real" prices not ads, especially given the incentives out there and rebates, etc. The best way to find out is to start getting quotes and shopping around. Most of the internet departments are pretty solid and up front, from what I have found, they want to move the vehicles. Some are more aggressive than others so ping 6-7 dealers and see what you get back. Then make sure to post back here so we can all benefit.

    I have sent out some feelers at 6 dealers in the Sarasota, Tampa, Orlando area. I have gotten back information from 2 at this point. I have found that there is only $500 separating the Ford incentives from model year 11 and 12. I contacted dealers about both 11's and 12's with similar equipment. The dealer that emailed me back on the 2011's offered a price that equated to $800 over invoice less rebates. Not very good considering I got the same discount on a 12 from the other dealer. So I am not seeing at this point why you would buy an 11 when competing dealers are offering 12's at the same discount. I have to believe that Ford must be offering some dealer cash to move these 2011's but I have yet to get solid information on this. As previously stated one should be able to get 10K to 12K off of MSRP on these trucks considering the direction of fuel costs. More information to come.
  • tampa2tampa2 Member Posts: 18
    I completely agree if it's just $800 separating an 11 from a 12, buying a 12 is a no-brainer. I would ask if the 0% financing is available for the 11 including the incentives versus not combinable for the 12's. That works out to some significant savings depending on whether you finance or not. If you build a list of F150's in AutoTrader you can see a few dealers post prices under MSRP, and one dealer off I-4 closer to Lakeland stands out with pricing. Make sure you include them they have lots of 11's left too. Let me know how it goes.
  • cwa318cwa318 Member Posts: 79
    Here is the latest information I have reveived from dealers in the Tampa, Orlando, Sarasota area. It seems that there is only a $500 difference in rebates between 2011's and 2012's. There are better financing options with the 2011's such as 0% for 60 months or 1.9 for 72 months in lieu of a $2K rebate. Most of the repsonses I got back from dealers is they are willing to sell 2011's and 2012's for invoice price. The delima is why buy a 2011? What I am surprised at is Ford has made the 2012's more appealing to the buyer than the 2011 and there are a ton of these left in inventory. That is why I figured there would be some maufacture to dealer cash that would make the 11's more appealing. I figured a person could buy a 2011 for less than invoice price before any rebates. So far I have not been able to get such a deal especially since dealers do have 3% in holdback but many of these units have been sitting on lots for a lomg time and that holdback money has been eaten up. I will update more later.
  • tampa2tampa2 Member Posts: 18
    Great info, keep me posted. I was hoping you would have said the 0% financing was combinable with the 2011 rebates, thus making it a few thousdand different between the 11 and 12 models. I forgot - what type of F150 are you looking at?
  • cwa318cwa318 Member Posts: 79
    The finance piece of this equals to 0% for 60 and 1.9 for 72 plus $2K in rebates. I have been looking at crew cab 4wd with Ecoboost Lariat or FX4. The MSRP is between $46 and $50.
  • bama_stripesbama_stripes Member Posts: 6
    Starting the process of buying a new FX4 screw. One with the Ecoboost eng, luxury pkg, and 20 " wheels has a MSRP right at 46 k. How much off MSRP can one expect at this time of the year ?

    I just bought a 2012 F-150 4x2 Lariat SuperCrew with the Plus package, EcoBoost, Leather Bucket Seats with Console, Chrome Step Bar, Tailgate Step, Body Color Power Folding Heated Mirrors for $32,900. MSRP was $42,815. I think I got a good deal... They were originally quoting me $34,150 and I got several dealerships here in the Houston area that said they couldn't match or beat the price. Anybody care to offer their comments? Agree? Disagree?
  • bama_stripesbama_stripes Member Posts: 6
    Taimgxe,

    What rebates and other factory incentives were included in your price?

    Thanks for your response.
  • taimgxetaimgxe Member Posts: 4
    Rebate of $2,000 plus $1,000 thru Ford Motor Credit plus $750.00 for trade in. The price of $32,900 is before the trade in value was applied.
  • locomolocomo Member Posts: 29
    That would be a great deal in Memphis.
    Maybe I should go to Houston.
    What dealer was it ?
  • taimgxetaimgxe Member Posts: 4
    McRee Ford In Dickinson, TX (Suburb of Houston) Last time I checked, they had 3 F-150's for the same exact MSRP price I paid with the exact options.

    All right folks,
    I looked at this thread looking for advice and didn't find it, so I'll post mine in hopes that it helps some one else:

    traded in the truck from page 46 of this thread

    had 33,500 miles but I really wanted a 4x4.
    Got a 2012 Supercrew 4x4 5.0 at Helfman Ford in Stafford, Tx on 7/3/12
    $41, 945
    -$1500 Chrome, tow, Convience disc.

    $40,445 (Blue line)

    Gave me 20,000 for my trade (Fair offer maybe 500 low.(+ Tax benefits of trade in, + trade in rebate ($750)
    Got rebates for financing with Ford, XLT, 5..0 etc.)
    ALSO...requested a brochure from Ford and received a $750 private cash offer/ coupon.

    Anyway after it was all said and done $28,250 before tt+l

    So is this $13695 below sticker or $12195 below sticker?

    How did I do? Please give me your input good, bad or indifferent.

    This may be helpful for some prospective buyers.

    I live in Kansas City and priced FX4 in KC, St Louis, Oklahoma and Dallas.

    In the end I wanted it fully loaded and ended up driving to Tulsa, OK for the best deal.

    I just purchased a 2012 grey FX4 with ecoboost, luxury package, sony premium sound w/ nav, moonroof, tailgate step, brake controller, LT275/65R18 tires, and running boards.

    We started at the invoice price 44370 (which included 1660 in luxury and premium discounts, plus 134 gas and 582 advertising fees) and got down to 43830, took off 4500 in rebates (finance 1500, customer cash 2000, trade in 1000) which came to 39870.

    Minus 5000 trade in (2005 base Kia Sorento manual with 90k miles and in good condition) came to 34870.

    TTL (4311) and doc fee (195) came to 4506 for drive out price of 38836.

    (These are before TTL)
    Edmunds True Market Value: 45468 - 2500 (rebates) = 42968
    TrueCar Price report showed 6 month ave sale at 44815 with the below market cutoff at 42584.

    I got offers on FX4's from different dealers with fewer options (these include the trade in 3500 to 4500 range, but before TTL):

    FX4 5.0 V8, Sony premium sound, Luxury package, Runing boards, Tail step, Brake control: 35716

    FX4 Ecoboost, Sony premium sound, Luxury package, Runing boards, Tail step, Brake control:
    33436

    FX4 5.0 V8, Premium sound (not Sony), Luxury package, Running boards, Tail step: 31102

    FX4 5.0 V8, Premium sound (not Sony), Luxury package, Tail step: 31118

    FX4 5.0 V8, Sony premium sound, Luxury package: 31647

    If I had gone with the 5.0 V8 instead of the Ecoboost, there would have been another 500 rebate but the 5.0 V8 felt very sluggish compared to the Ecoboost.

    ***DETAILS OF FINAL PURCHASE***
    (Invoice/MSRP)
    2012 FX4 base (36666/40485)
    Ecoboost (909/1095)
    LT275 (228/275)
    Sony Nav (2050/2470)
    Run Board (378/455)
    Moonroof (826/995)
    Luxury Pack (2760/3325)
    Tailgate Step (311/375)
    Brake Control (191/230)

    Total + 995 dest = 45314/50700

    Discounts/Rebates
    Premium Disc (830/1000)
    Luxury Disc (830/1000)
    Customer Reb 2000
    Trade In Reb 1000

    dude you have to get the fmcc money to get all the discounts. pay it off on first pmt. you think dealers want to loose money for you! if its your cash or cash from the bank its all cash.

    Just picked up a Kodiak Brown 2013 KR today. Lots of great rebates right now, not to mention some killer dealer discounts too. MSRP was $48,040 after $500 discount on sticker. I paid $37,797 plus TTL. No trade involved as I sold my 2005 Avalanche to a co-worker. Dealer was Sam Pack in Carrollton, TX. I had previously purchased a 2011 Mustang GT and my dad a 2012 Lariat from this dealership.

    2019 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, 2019 Ford Mustang GT Premium, 2016 Kia Optima SX, 2013 Ford F-150 King Ranch, 2000 Pontiac Trans Am WS6, 2001 Kawasaki Vulcan 800 Classic

    Purchased a new 2013 FX2 in race red last night from Joe Myers Ford in Houston. Sticker was 41630, got them down to 30000 plus TTL with tent and spray in liner thrown in at no cost. thought it was a hell of a deal. Only buzz kill was rolling a little negative equity into the deal from being upside down on the trade in, but still was happy with our deal. Lori Anne Richie is their Internet sales point of contact and set it all up when I got there.

    Hey surfgermany, did you buy off their website or walk in and do this deal. I see their online deals charge you freight and doc fee but if it wont for that, those are some great prices they have.

    Also, how is the V6 doing on gas mileage?

    Thanks

    I am going to purchase a 2013 F150 Supercrew 4 x 4 with a 5.0 V8. It must include a package 302A(with rear camera). I will buy in 3 weeks or should I wait for Fords Memorial day sale.
    I am trading a 2009 Ranger which the dealer will give me $9,000 (paid for) 3 weeks from now.
    As of today the total rebates are $5750 (better deal than 0%). Any chance of the Ranger Loyalty rebate coming back or more rebates on the memorial weekend sale? :confuse:
  • surfgermanysurfgermany Member Posts: 24
    Started on the website and then the sales staff sent me the price in a email.
    the price on the website had to have added (as the fine print says) 499 and freight (as well as of course ttl) The price on the web included 2500 rebate and 1000 rebate from ford credit if you finance some part of the deal (and of course you can pay it right off in a month and only loose a few dollars intrest).
    so if you didnt finance have to add 1000 to the cost. I was of course skeptical but walked in found the sales man no fuss no muss and was written up in 10 mins with no discussion on price exactly as they said only waiting was for the finance office they were swamped on a saturday.
    Cant say much on the mpg only have put 300 miles on it so far but the computer says 18.5 in all city driving so far. (my chevy malibu v-6 gets 21 on the same loop)

    Well I purchased a 2013 F150 Supercrew 4x4 V8 with the 302A pkg, tailgate step ladder and bucket seats. The MSRP was $42435 and with the Xplan it came out at $38900 below invoice then minus another $5500 only in rebates , because I did not finance with Ford Credit, but at 2.95% interest. Also got a 7 year 75K miles bumper to bumper warranty with the Ford ESP. I got $9250 trade for my 2009 Ranger XLT supercab. My payment is $520 for 60 months I am in Southern California so we got 8% sales tax and other fees. I did not wait for the Memorial weekend sale, which had an extra $1000 for your trade, I needed the truck sooner.

    So an update on the 1000 dollar ford credit deal.
    So we had saved up the money to buy this with cash but did see the 1000 rebate if you financed with Ford credit so we did 10k finance to get it then when the first payment was due we paid 9500 off then did 2 payments of 268 or something like that to pay it off in 90 days as instructed at the dealer. Got the title this week and it worked fine. so in the end we paid 36 dollars interest and got 1000 extra off seems like a good deal if you are able to buy outright of course I took the savings and bought a bak flip cover .....
  • domer04domer04 Member Posts: 20
    From reading these posts, it looks like a new F150 is the same price or cheaper than a used. Is that what people are seeing as well?
  • just_focusjust_focus Member Posts: 53
    That is what I have found also. My local Ford dealer here in Milford Ohio has a brand New 2013 f150 crew 4x4 5.0 Advertised for $13,000.00 off sticker. I would hate to be the guys who own a 2012 or 2011 and want to trade it in at this time.
