Ordered a new F250

I was looking at a used 2018 150 yesterday. Had 12,000 miles. Sticker said 47k and they only wanted 31k for it. If it wasn't for the wrong color and the price sounding too low, I would have bought it.
Sounds like a great deal on the f150. It is easy to stay less than 70k if you don’t get a diesel. They are basically the same price as a F150 if you get the 6.2L gasoline engine.
*Which* invoice is the question. They have a few different “invoice” prices.... it’s just a big shell game.
agreed. The invoice isn’t a real invoice, as there is holdback, volume bonuses, etc not factored in.
Which is why they are happy to make a sale that they “lose money on”.
If you can find the Ford A plan price that is as close to a true invoice you will find. It is probably at least $2000-3000 less than I will pay. So they will make that money and the sale will them closer to a volume bonus that they might not have hit without.
“A plan” is invoice less holdback less marketing fee.
I was having trouble getting dealers down to anything below $1000 over invoice on 2018s.

Bob, Thank you. That is my brother and I'm sure he will be happy to sell everyone on here one. Thanks again for the business.
I have been trying to sell some more for you guys. It was too easy. I’m working on my wife’s SUV as I type this. Need to take her down to order a Expedition.
I will need to keep this in mind! Wife is talking cattle when she is done with her PhD. My little piss-ant Frontier ain't hauling squat. I'd be in my first diesel at that point.
Damn fine looking truck. Super jealous!
Price and non aluminum quarter panels (I think) if you're talking brand new. Less tech vs. More tech?
The 2017 and later trucks ride and drive dramatically better than the past generation.
You can get one for your business and write it all off in one year as a business expense. Section 179 deduction.

Thanks. I definitely need it for business.
Is that deduction true of both new and used?
Well I bought a truck today. Used but I think I got a great deal. 2016 Z71 with only 29k miles.
You can depreciate it too but there is a depreciation schedule over a few years. The GVWR has to be high enough and the bed long enough to take off in one year.
Dodge? My goodness man have some respect for yourself
The owner is a OSU alumn in Chickasha, too.
I gave England a chance on mine but no one called me back until a month after I ordered my truck.

Pickups eh? Where are the Ferrari dealership OSU alumni fighting to give me a $225,000 discount on my next 488 Spider?
You can't farm out of a Ferrari. Therefore a Ford is a better value. This is the best comeback I can currently muster.
My friend is a HUGE GM fanboy, used to give me crap about driving a Mustang, etc. He went out shopping and comparing 3/4 ton 4x4 diesels and ended up buying a F-250. He loves it so far.
