help??

Hi again. I am going tomorrow to look at an 05 explorer for the expedition's replacement (lease) and also found another 06 f-350 that was appealing to me. My question is, how much will i have to pay to 'take it home' overnight. Some dealers do this, others don't. I was just wondering if there were any fee's involved. For those wondering i want to take it overnight so as to see what it is like to live with. Parking, fitting into garage, etc. Like an extended test drive....do dealers do this anymore? I am most likely coming home tomorrow with a new explorer as the lease on the expedition is up, but would ideally like to overnight the 350. Thanks for any help!

Should be no problem

If the dealer won't let you take it overnight, look for a more accommodating dealer.

If he is serious about selling the vehicle he will. But also, you may have to put down a deposit to show him that you are serious as well and not just joy riding.

thanks for the help....He decided to give me an 04 350 w/o DRW as a tester. I had been at the dealer for an explorer for most the day and it was close to closing and he said all that was left was a used 04...whatever....It had a few problems with it which steered me away from it...had 16,000 on it and they wanted too much. It had a D to R shudder and pause and the motor had no bottom end for some reason. The tires were pretty much shot also....BFGoodrichs i think. Not very impressed with that 350....
