I have access to the Xplan but I didn't think it would make that much difference in the price.
We are wanting to stay below 40,000 and didn't think the Xplan would make that big of difference when the 250 are sitting here at 60,000
But might be the time to take a look to see if it helps.
I configured a 2013 F250 to have the exact same options as the truck in my signature except with the 6.2L and the price was right around $45,000. If I added Ecoboost, Max Tow package, and HD package, my truck would had been very close in price to the F250.
With my Xplan I was able to get the truck just above invoice when all fees were added. It brought my trucks actual price down to $31,800 after the rebates and the Xplan. My truck's MSRP was $41,470 before taking off for it's package discounts.
Unless the dealer is flipping your numbers with a trade, to make it look like their giving you the new truck for less, you're not going to do better than the Xplan. The dealers will sit on the truck waiting for another dealer to request it for a dealer trade and then they get to pick another vehicle out of that dealer's stock. F150s go quick at our dealers so they aren't going to sell at a loss.
