Decided not to take the 2025 AWD I ordered

[Scout]

Hello all.
First off thanks for all the advise I’ve gotten on the forum.
I saw and drove a 2025 the other day. Its a nice truck for sure..
Guess I’m old , but my 2022 hybrid info screen and basic controls work fine for me.And I can’t justify the steep price increase.
BUT I am going to get a 2024 FX4 once the rear camera hold is fixed.
I have found good deals on them due to so many sitting on dealers lots.

I agree with you.

Too many things on the new ones that require staring at a friggin' screen to change, that formerly could be done by reaching for a physical knob and adjusting without looking.

I don't care how big the screen is.

Amen to that.
As a matter of fact, the bigger screen eliminates a place for me to mount my phone or Garmin GPS.
I prefer a real GPS. Cell service is intermittent in many areas within Nevada and Utah where I travel and I don't have unlimited 5g.

One dealer quote 2000.00 msrp . Another offered invoice, so about 1500 off.

How’s the HPR paint holding up?

Invoice only about $600-800 discount.

I think you’ll be able to get even better deals once the hold is up because they are last years model and pre refresh.

I wouldn’t buy a 2024 when the ecoboost in the 2025 is vastly improved.

I sold my ‘24 XL AWD and I’m passing on my ‘XL 25 hybrid AWD since I stumbled into a gladiator for $21K off so $40K for a brand new ‘23 rubicon this past August and the ‘25 hybrid would have been $30K

My local dealer has 5-6 available shortly on lot without being spoken for. I think one XL eco and all others bloated XLTs all in mid 30s. No wonder they are unspoken for.

I 100% agree!

I 100% agree!

What are the improvements 2025 over the 2024?

What are the improvements 2025 over the 2024?

Port and direct injection I think

I honestly don't know. A truck for me is an appliance. Never wash it. Never look at it. Just drive it. Dispose of it when the time comes. I guess the paint is fine in the sense that nothing has jumped out at me.
