Re: Thinking about ordering a new truck tomorrow
sky_free wrote: Is there a big difference between 2015's and 2016's? You almost never get good discounts when doing a custom order. It's a good time to buy a leftover 2015 though. I had them price a 2015 that was on another lot close by, they wanted full sticker price. The salesman also said they only make 1K per super duty sale. that is why I will not use this dealer again.576Views0likes0CommentsRe: Thinking about ordering a new truck tomorrow

I can tell you that the dealer CAN give you a solid price on an ordered truck. What he CAN'T do is tell what (if any) incentives/ rebates will be at the time of delivery. I bought a new 2013 F250 6.2, and I now own a 2015 F350 6.7 diesel. Any more questions? Why should I think things through? I have found a equal truck for thousands less. I have also been offered extras in the deal at no extra cost. The salesman pissed me off at ford and that is that. I am not brand loyal even though I have bought 4 fords in a row. In fact the fords have been less than good. The first 04 f150 was a turd and ford bought it back. The second was a ford f250 6.0. ford could not keep it running so I traded it for a 06 F350 6.0 and it was decent. the last was a 08 ford 6.4 it had 5K in warranty work done in the first 50K miles but has been ok for the next 50k miles. So I think its time for a change.576Views0likes0CommentsRe: Thinking about ordering a new truck tomorrow

Mine had a sticker showing $64,800. I paid $53,300. I think the straw that broke the camels back was him telling me that they only make 1K per truck. I know thats BS and thats when I thanked him for his time and walked out. BTW they have called twice since I left but I told them I was no longer interested in a ford from them.576Views0likes0CommentsRe: Thinking about ordering a new truck tomorrow
Update, Ford will not give me a final price on a 2016 if I order it. They have a 2015 that is available from another dealer but they will not deal any on the price. I have bought 4 new trucks from this dealer in the past. They even told me that they only make about $1000 on the sale of any super duty. BS is my thoughts. So I went across town to the Chevy dealer and they have a 2015 3500HD 6.0 DRW CC LB 4x4 with all the stuff I wanted plus a few extras. They priced it for 4K less than the ford and are even willing to through in a spray in Rhino liner. I think I might go this route. One thing for sure is I will never deal with my local Ford dealer again.576Views0likes0CommentsRe: ST225/75R15 Goodyear Marathon Radial

Has any one considered using Firestone Transforce HT 225/75R16 in lieu of an ST application? If so, how did it go. I have a Firestone dealer in our neighborhood. These would we very easy to obtain and get serviced. Thanks again.... It will work well but you will need new wheels to go that route.363Views0likes0Comments
