Need some advice guys...

Hey guys or gals.. I'm in the market for a new SuperDuty and I need some buying advice or some pointers on negotiating.

Ive bought a truck before but the guy gave me a deal before I even opened my mouth so no reason to negotiate.

The truck I want is Crew Cab FX4 White. It's MSRP is 41500. Now no way am I going to pay MSRP. Anybody here have any pointers or advice?

Much appreciated,'Dwight Miles

No, it's a Crew Cab.

Super Crew is an F-150 with a super small minuscule tiny bed.

Advice? Start low (say 20-25% off of list) and see what happens. Do not purchase any extended warranty unless it is a Ford warranty. Get a discount on the warranty also. Do not purchase any spray on, rub on or dealer applied additions.

Always be ready to walk away if you feel you are being screwed.

You've been able to get the 6'5" bed on the supercrew since '06 now

Find out what the dealer paid for it. And be ready to walk out the door.

Higher volume dealers are more willing to move on price.
