2019 5th Wheel Prep Cost

Does anyone know why the 5th wheel prep went from $350 in 2018 to $850 in 2019MY? This is Canadian $, but I'm guessing the US models also went up.

Why did it more than double?

Perhaps you’re confusing the prep package and the factory hitch for a prepped truck.

I ordered the pre package on my ‘19 at ~$500, the same it is currently showing for in the 2018 build for USD.

the conversion factors don’t smoothly go to your numbers, but generally I think your CDN numbers are in line with the prep package vs the “hitch kit”

Above is a snip from the www.ford.CA website. $380 for the prep (the price has been the same since 2011). The dealer today quoted $850. He showed me on his screen, sure enough....he was right, which made me think either Ford is finally catching up on pricing, or they've changed what is included.

Tariff$???. Buckle your seat belt. Trade wars are beginning.

It was $464 on my x-plan when I priced a 2019 F350 today here in US. . I believe MSRP is $500 here

Or ford found a pricing error. The prep package has been $500 USD For as long as I can remember. In no scenario does it make sense for Ford to charge less in CDN.
