Got an 05 today
My dad retired from Ford, so I get the Z plan (it's A for active and Z for retired, but the price is the same). By the way, FMC offers an X plan to lots of different businesses. The X plan cost was 1000 more than the A plan (it's on the invoice, so I know this is a fact). If you are looking for a vehicle, and aren't sure, ask! One woman was in there while I was and worked for WalMart. They get the X plan price.
MSRP was 47995.00 Z plan price was 39997.95 and they had 2500 cash rebate, plus 500 Home Depot card, but they would (and did) take the 500 off the price instead of the card.
btw - the rebate just increased to 2500 on June 1. Sorry but not sure how long it is in effect.
Out the door price was 36,997.95
I ended up trading my 03 in. We were only about $500 dollars apart on value, so they threw in a fiberglass bed top (unless I'm mistaken, those are more than 1000).
Probably could have cleaned up my truck, bought new tires and sold it for 1000-2000 more, but in the end I think I did okay.
Going to rain tonight so I have to go now and put the baby in the garage.
