The Ford dealer here is running adds for $15k off sticker. The Chevy is around 10k off. I picked up a F150 XLT 4x4 Crew stickered at 44k for 29k a few years ago. In full disclosure I did trade in a 200k mi XJ that I couldn't get $1500 for on craiglist. (multiple wrecks, CEL, etc)
It was a way better deal to buy new than used. They had the same truck used on the lot with 20k miles on it 1 year old and wanted $36k for it. I liked 5.0 > EcoBoost though.

Aftermarket leather? That sounds like a bad idea not sticking to factory seat options, your $500 aftermarket leather isnt going to make the seats power/heated/cooled like they would he with the factory upgrade option. |

Bought this a few years ago for $5k. Its a 91 and only 110k miles on it and it was in great shape. I originally was in the market for a Tacoma 4door cab or similar but there's nothing new under $30k and used isn't that much of a deal either. I gave up and went old school. Put a 6" lift on it and I'm very happy with it. Maint is cheap and parts are everywhere for these old Chevy's.

And can tow 5,000lbs.. if that... I think stock 3/4 ton C-20s were rated at just north of 10k lbs originally. Stock 402BBC was rated at 400 ftlbs...
Of course, its pretty unlikely that anyone using one as a dedicated tow rig left the stock motor in it. It's not the going, it's the stopping. Front disks became standard in 71 I believe. My 72 with stock brakes (factory power PB, disk front, drum rear) and wide Nitto 420s can lock all four up at the drop of a hat. Other than ABS (which isnt a big deal if you know what you're doing)... whats the difference? Brake tech hasnt changed a whole lot in a very long time. Not saying I'd pull a 10k lb boat across country in my '72, but those trucks were plenty capable for most every day towing tasks. Plus they're sexy bone stock and all tricked out

Ive been dealing with this the past two months. The market is a joke right now.
2015 Ram 2500 Diesel with the Decent trim package here is going for 56k. Unreal. Laramie package with Leather bumps it to 60+ Fly to Idaho and it can be had for 45k out the door. Settled for the same package on a 2012 truck with 80k miles for a tick under 30k. Still feel I'm getting screwed, but unlike most people I need a truck for work, and the last Ram I had and just sold was a 03 that I brought to 230k miles. Hoping to get the same 130k miles out of this one @ 15k miles a year. |

Last spring I bought a 2012 F-150 4x2 5.0 with an 8ft bed. 8k miles for $18k... I don't think that was such a bad price considering what I got for it.
OP, I don't know wtf you're talking about with the 5.0 being sluggish- this thing is screamin' fast! The EcoBoost can just slightly outrun it, but I can beat a lot of mid-class sports cars. It's still a 360 HP V8..... |

I'll never buy another new truck, unless to work with it. They're just a fucking sinkhole of depreciation...grossly over-wrought, over-complicated, and over-priced luxury vehicles.
I'd rather drive an affordable car at half the cost, and rent a truck on the rare occasions I need one. I'll be money ahead, and drive a better-handing car inbetween. I used to love trucks, but they got retarded.

I drive old beater pickups until they are scrap metal, but I keep my wife in new-ish low mileage rigs so here goes...
The F150 EcoBoost is sweet. They're sure as hell not cheap and the used market is all kinds of crazy right now. You may well be able to find a deal on a new 2014 F150 as 2015 models start to take over. I have a friend that bought a 2013 and loves it. Crew Cab, 4x4, etc. Not sure about the leather. Very nice truck. OTOH, sometimes the incentives on the new model is greater than the savings on the old model. Even the 2011 and 2012 EcoBoost trucks are pulling $30K plus on the used market.

They are local dealers... I purchased my truck in 2013 from them and had no problems.
What they WILL do is tell you the price is only good through Ford Financing. Thats the route we took, and then paid that note off the very next day using Pre-Approval from our Credit Union. You just have to learn to play the game. It pays off in the end.

Find a garaged older 1999-2002 pickup (any manufacturer). You'll still pay less, the pickups themselves and the motors are better quality.

Ended up buying my wife a new van and me holding off for a few more years, thinking I may buy a "fun car" and keep my current DD (97 Chevy w/t) for truck stuff, but I may change my mind again when it's time to buy. |

Can you recommend a chevy dealer out there? I'm looking for a tahoe in a few weeks? Quote HistoryQuoted:

From another dealer here (This is the dealer I use for everything) 29K XLT Package, quad cab.
http://www.kendallfordofmeridian.com/Boise/For-Sale/New/Ford/F-150/2014-XLT-Black-Truck/27940857/ Can you recommend a chevy dealer out there? I'm looking for a tahoe in a few weeks? There are several dealers in the South West Boise area and in South Central area. IF you are serious about Chevys or Dodges.......DAVE SMITH DEALERSHIP in the Cottonwood area, which is more North Central. Just about any area in Idaho will be cheaper(as in 12k-15k cheaper) than South Eastern Idaho. |
