Rhode Island Ford Car Dealers

Does any one give me advice here. I'm planning to buy a 2006 4 x 4 XLT Expedition($39,700). How much will I expect for all the Rebates/Dealer cash back/Incentives? I live here in Cranston,Rhode Island. I have a trade-in with a negative equity and planning to roll it? What will be the best offer that I can give to the dealer?

the beauty of the x-plan is hte fact that it is printed on the invoice. All other factory incentives apply on top of the plan price. As far as a leftover that has been sitting, forget it. Remember there have been a few problems with the new design that have been corrected as work-in-progress production corrections. To buy a truck that has been sitting for a year to save a few bucks seems like you are gambling for trouble....Fortunately the KR is VERY rare in the Northeast (presently, there is one copper one in RI), so I really do not mind waiting to get a factory-fresh copy....

Jeff88, just wondering. How do you feel about a 2003 Nav with the power folding mirrors for the same price as the 04 EB? With the ued Nav you would get the same three years (the 03 Nav had 4 years, presumably one is now gone) of warranty, better interior, cleaner exterior, the correct mirrors, much less depreciation going forward because the big hit has already happened, etc.

I just picked up a 2003 Tribute LX with 4WD, ABS, Premium Audio, and Tow as a leftover for $21,500. Its MSRP is $25,050. There was a $2500 rebate involved too.

While I haven't seen the monochromatic paint on the EB, I have on the Navigator. For $1100 you get the front facia, rear facia, and the wheel moldings painted in the same color as the body. Period. All in all something a local body shop could do for $300. On the Navigator anyway, they didn't even anodize any of the large amount of the chrome, black, nor do the side mouldings. I think they could have done a much better, more complete job if they wanted a classier, monochromatic look. (Just imagine how classy the roof rack would look if done in anodized black on a black body).
