I asked everyone advice about a f250 and if I should purchase. I went and test drive one today.

It had a 6 inch lift and 38 inch tires!!!!!!!!

I didn't drive it far cause it had low fuel.

They ride smooth and everything. They wanted 68k for a lariat with a lift and 59k for one without the lift. Wow.... hefty price.

my question is - what month does ford start to offer incentives? Good ones? And what month is the 0% financing. If I am to get one I will wait till then and save up a down payment.

Also anyone who has a lifted 250 what mileage do you get with the diesel? Pulling off the lot it said 10.5 per gallon but I assume that was too low cause I wasn't even going highway speeds!


Thanks everyone for the info!!

 

I was told a long time ago, if you are worried about the gas mileage then you should not buy it.

 

6" lift and 38" tires, yea 10.5 seems about right.
The incentives won't be much better on super duty trucks until end of the MY.
0% for super duty is also going to be most likely end of the MY.

Edit* With how much Ford is behind with just the orders and getting these things out still, there isn't going to be any help with price/interest rate anytime soon.

 

I completely agree with srkr, I am buying the truck for its capabilities and features. For me MPG is a mere after thought.

I know this is not the case for everyone, but there is a reason why the window sticker says "Fuel Economy ratings not required on this vehicle"

 

What does MY stand for?

 

I found out the 0% probly won't help much, it's assigned to certain VIN #s and certain vehicles. I was looking at new Mustangs and they said I couldn't get 0% because it was only for the Ecoboost model and I wanted a GT. It doesn't apply to all the vehicles on the lot.

And what does "not until the end of the MY" mean.
