These trucks are not sold at the same price across the continent. That may be why you are seeing the big differences. I'm not dreaming, if I wanted to take the time to download a screen saver app, it would show the price of an F-250 and a 150 with EB, the 150 being higher.Lynnmor wrote:
Seems obvious that the F250 is loaded with options not on the F150 example. What can I say? Apples & oranges.
No. Just different options, for example the F150 has the fancier display with instantaneous graphical mpg displays and so on. But the F250 has rear-view camera. Certainly nowhere near $8400 worth of option difference.
You can build trucks that are closer option-wise, but you will never get rid of that 8K difference, at least not at Canadian site. I've tried repeatedly and it's always 7-10K difference depending upon how I do it.
There's just no way Ford is going to give you a heavier duty truck with the same options as a lighter duty truck for a lower or even equivalent price. You guys are just dreaming.
