So did the home depot rebate of 500.00 go bye,bye or is it still available also?

 

It's gone the way of the Fairmont and the Pinto. Bye-bye, history, finito!

 

As it currently stands, if the SD we want is not on a lot, and thus has to be ordered, are there any available incentives, rebates, or any other deductions?

 

According to this article the Home Depot promotion was to run until 8/5/05.

I read today that the cash back for 2005 F150's went from 2500.00 to 3000.00, that might account for the HD rebate going away. I locked in a F150 SC, 8'bed, 4x4 yesterday. Nice deal.

 

I am looking to buy the same vehicle and would appreciate any help on what you paid. I understand if you'd rather not, just asking though. I broke down what I paid for my Expedition so it would help other buyers of the same vehicle.

05 EB 4wd Expy

Safety/security package

heated/cooled seats

power moonroof

power rear-quarter flip windows

powerfold 3rd row seat

I paid $34,000 with $200 doc fees, $1700 Ma sales tax and $85 plates/title fees. Total check off the lot $35985.00

Sticker was $45850 with the above mentioned options.
Hope that helps anyone out there shopping.

Thanks so much. That is a great deal. You have helped me out quite a bit. I have been debating weather to buy or lease my next copmpany vehicle. My buisness partner and I get 2 new vehicles every 3 years. For the past 3 leases over the course of 9 years, we have leased 4runners. We're gonna get pickups this time around. We've had great luck with the 4runners (never had a single warrantee problem in either of our cars over 9 years now. The reason we're gonna get Fords are 1, more bang for the buck, and 2, I don't care what anyone says , the Tundra is not a full size pickup.

Thanks again for sharing the info-Joe
