Apparently they're waiting for the guy with a "Please Con Me" t-shirt to show up. Terrible.

Yeah, that's the "bend over price". Wonder what they'd take for an offer?

I went through this same hassle when buying an Expedition Max Ltd last December when we lived in Seattle. Funny how much hubris there is in the industry. I eventually flew out to Billings MT and the nice folks at Laurel Ford met me at the airport, took me to the dealership, got me into 0% for 48months financing and even honored my xplan price(that was a surprise). I think that '21 EXP is now worth the same amount on the used market as I paid for it.

But alas I am now living in SoCal and so seeing the same crazy prices as these ads as I look for a Maverick (well, Norm Reeves will "go down to $46k" if I go out there ASAP). Also finding that the local LA area dealers dont even seem to realize how easy the recall/fix is on the hybrid engine and so many of them dont even have the Lariat hybrids on the lot and actively for sale. What a joke the industry is, and Ford in particular. At least the VW dealer here will sell me the ID4 they have on the lot for MSRP.

My local dealer has a used Lariat on the lot for $42k, last I looked, started out at $46 and has been dropping a bit. But it's one of those situations where in the height of the feeding frenzy they paid out a ton of money for the trade in, so to sell it at even close to MSRP they'd lose money. It's sat there for many months now. Hate on the price, but I get how it got there.

Where did you get me hating on anything out of my response?

I didn't.??? I was referring generically to people hating on such things, like the specific case I gave. Sensitive much?

I could say the same about you. I just ask a simple question.

Well, as we say down here in the south, Bless your heart.

Some dealers are very proud of their vehicles! Did you see the monthly payment, that's a mortgage not a payment, & where I live that's a mortgage on 2 houses. I bet they would take 70K even if you offered it. The sales tax alone would be more than both Lux package & AWD options combined. Hell that's more than I paid for my Maverick AND the 6 car garage I keep it in!

Yes the average house around here is 250-350K, some in the low 2s & occasionally there is the 195,000 one, you can spend a million if you want to. 5 years ago a family member bought a 3 bedroom ranch with a 2 car garage for 120K & that was middle of the road prices.

I ordered my truck with Villa. Paid MSRP, no additional crap, didn't try to get me to buy anything, just asked if I was interested.

Honestly it was the best new car buying experience I have ever had. It was also the first car I've ever ordered. I don't know how it is buying off of the lot these days. The last car I purchased before that was a used BMW in 2019.
