F150 price increase
I ordered a 2016 F150 Lariat just before Christmas but made a minor mistake on the order and was reviewing the price and noticed that the exact same truck will cost $785 more now than it did two weeks...

That's easier said then done. Dealers seem to order all the same level of trucks with very similar equipment. For example, I've yet to find an F250 with the gas engine, 4.3 gears, 5th wheel prep and extended towing mirrors. The 4.3 gears are non-existent on a gas truck as far as I have seen. And when I plan to spend $50,000, I will get the truck I want and need and not what some guy behind a computer screen at the dealership thinks I need when they place their stock orders.
This is exactly the problem I'm having.
All of the dealer around here order trucks with the highest "value" package they can. I don't need that many frills, just a few.
The F250 with the 4.30 axle can be found sometimes, but it lacks a bunch of other stuff as well.
I keep thinking, why in the world would anybody order these trucks this way?? For example, a 3.73 axle ratio with all the towing packages, but no towing mirrors....crazy stuff.
