Got to take my alto blue xlt eco fx4 lux home last night.. The signing was painless...MSRP.. The private offer and farm Bureau applied for a 2250$ off... Put 8k down on it.. Small town dealership... Tom Peck FORD in Clinton WI.. Randy the general manager was my salesman I went to them as a referral.. Didn't try to add any extra charges or do anything to the truck I didn't ask for so had no surprises... Went to 2 other dealerships first just got a shady fealing from them.. Later found out one was telling you a 5k adm.. Was mandatory and if u want the truck pay it of leave it and had turned down mavs with 10k market adjustment..
I'm 44.This is the 10th vehicle I've owned and the first one I have ever gotten from a dealership.. (or new for that matter) salesman asked if I was interested in a extended warranty. Gave me the options to chose from.. Decided to go with a extended bumper to bumper for 84 months. 75k miles...Will prob hit the time and miles around the same Time on the warranty drive less then 10k a year...
Have only put 45miles on it so far.. I got the lux mainly for the heated seats ( I knew the wife would love it. Use to have a take home company truck 2014 f350 Lariat. The owners said it was mine for personal use also outside work it was a nice perk.. It had heated seats and she loved them) The auto hold is nice will take a little time to trust it and can see how it can maybe get u into trouble if u get to use to it.. Like if I drive the wife's car without it... Dial shifter will take a little while to get use to.. My only real complaint so far is I wish the outside mirrors with the little blindspot mirrors were on the outside bottom not outside top.
I love the alto blue.. Blue during the day, black looking at night or in the shade... Had the dealership take it to get sprayed in bedliner and the front driver and passenger windows tinted to match the back.. Came off the convoy semi with 6 miles on it.. After the 2 add-ons I asked for picked it up with 30 miles on it..
Sold my 2003 explorer sport trek to a guy at work.. wanted it as a fishing truck for the 4wheeldrive.. For hauling his little Johnboat in and out of the docs.. otherwise said it will be his son's vehicle to drive to school in..
