Thanks for the feedback. I've never bought a Ford. Do people really pay a Doc Fee? I've bought many, many cars and certainly I've heard about Doc fees but I've never paid one. Is that a common thing for Ford dealers to throw at you. Sounds like a bogus charge in the deal that they can easily wave if someone pushes back...which I would certainly do. The Beechmont one must have the entertainment unit - $2k of silliness. Thanks for looking into that Bob! A 2019 equipped exactly like I want would be $77k on Xplan - $80k list. I'm not in a hurry. My reason to upgrade is I want the extended towing capacity but it's a for a boat which will be in storage until April...so time is on my side. I'll probably just wait them all out for a deal that I can live with. Thanks!

I'm looking for some opinions (I came to the right place I bet) - It's October and 2019 are right around the corner. I'm looking for 4x4 Exp Platinum with HD Tow and Bucket seats. 2018 MSRP is $80k. Can you suggest the best price you have heard for a 2018 and a 2019? I totally get the argument about a 2018 being 1 year older and having a lower Residual value when I go to sell in 2 years, hence my suggestion to dealers that their price needs to reflect this. I typically keep cars for 2 to 3 years, but I have no interest in leasing. I like the flexibility to do what I want when I want. This is a straight up buy situation and I will finance a minimum amount to get financing incentives too. Frankly, I don't understand people paying X-Plan pricing. I can get this if I want it, but it just seems like a place to start the negations, meaning, everyone needs to do better than this (I know they can't within the X plan structure, but they cannot outside of it). Also, I'm coming for a competitive product - I think Ford offers a $1k incentive on this too. My goal - I'd like to get a 2019 for $73k or a 2018 for $70k. Can it be done? Thanks in advanced for your thoughts and feedback.
