This will be my first Ford.
Countless Chvys but drove this truck with the gasser and I was sprung!

Anyway, need some price advice.

6.2 F150 Platinum 4x4, Nav. Tow option
Requesting Michelins tire switch in place of stock.
dealer spray liner, white.

Any advice on where we should be on price or any other advice, opinions
Additions or subtractions that might help?

Also, am I being paranoid about the rocker arm or ticking injector? Anyone else having problems or just a few bad cases which scares potential new buyers??
Don't pay above invoice, the dealer is still making at least 3% profit at invoice sometimes more. If you look around at various sources, it's easy to find the invoice cost w/ options. Many dealers will go below invoice, some up to $400 below. The price isn't always the only thing to consider though. Dealer location and service quality also figure in. The incentives which are quite good right now on most vehicles would come off of the invoice price. Then you have to add on freight and of course taxes.
