Get an X-plan pin code. j/k.
I wouldn't be afraid to walk away from the dealer if you don't like the price. When i bought mine i was there a looong time. I even walked out and went back to my car and the guy chased after me and gave me a lower price. I hate dealing with car dealers. When i have picked the truck i want and we are talking price i always tell the guy to send someone who is in charge over.
I hate that crap where you tell them the price is too high and they knock a few hundred bucks off, then they run to talk to a manager for ten minutes, then come back, and you have to do that five or six more times.

As a bare minimum go online and verify the "invoice" price. Just go to Ford and find local dealer and serch inventory. Any incentives Ford is having at the time is off the invoice price. You can do better, just depends on time of year, what stock the dealer is carrying, etc. I bought mine at invoice via internet and then got the rebate w/o having to even talk to the sales guy.
Good luck...

Know the invoice price of what you're looking for and go in talking about prices relative to invoice. That will cut a lot of the crap with a dealer who is interested in selling vehicles. If they still want to talk about MSRP, just walk out.
Once you're to the point of taking delivery, take your time inspecting it before you leave. Examine it close up and stand back and take in the big picture. Make sure the parts on the truck actually belong there (eg: mirror and trim styles) and make sure that what is supposed to be there actually is there (eg: floor mats, options, accessories).
