Think they'll take my 2018 F150 as a down payment?

Hoping the dealership will accept my 2018 F150 as a trade-in… Anyone have luck with this lately?

They’re asking 4.2 million? They definitely know what they got.

If it’s over 3 mil, I’m out. That’s just price gouging.

Weird… that’s my exact truck, and I bought it from the same place!

Mind sharing what you paid? That’s the truck I want, but the price is hard to swallow.

I think it was around $86k or $87k, but I added about $10k in options. It was a custom order through Ford. No regrets though—it’s an amazing truck and handles everything I throw at it.

@Hollis
That’s steep. I have an 18 Platinum and prices have shot up since then, but I know it’s an awesome truck.

Totally, but most of the truck’s features aren’t even essential, lol. And who really wants a $2k/month payment?

@Hollis
Exactly. I’d never have a payment that high. I’m putting down my trade plus extra cash, but it’s still a lot.

Went to the dealer hoping for a good deal, but yeah… they’re hardballing.

Finally seeing truck prices come down a bit! About time.

Took me a minute to realize those Platinums have really shot up with inflation.

It’s the heated massage seats, man. You gotta pay for the extras!

Inflation’s hitting hard. Thought Trump would take care of that.

Yeah, but he’s been elected for like two days already. I want results! :thinking:

@Quincy
Right there with you—I demand satisfaction!

@Quincy
Get in line. He might just make things worse once they start to improve.

Watch out for Woodhouse in the Omaha/Blair area. My friend was shopping for a truck there last year, and the sales team was super pushy. They tried to sell him a 2018 Denali with a clear engine knock.

I was looking at a ‘24 Tremor in Blair, but they lowballed me on my ‘18 F150 for trade-in—only offered $14k, even though it’s got 60k miles and new tires. Ridiculous.
