They have a lot of stipulations to get their online "quoted" price but give them a shout and see.

Also Holiday Ford.

I think there are some good deals to be had in Houston too but I can't remember what dealers those are.

I bought mine from Bill Utter in Denton and it was by far the easiest and best car buying experience I've EVER had (and I've bought my fair share of vehicles). I bought used though. Called them up, told them what I would pay out the door, they agreed and I went and picked it up. Doubt I was there anymore than 20 minutes.

You must have paid too much...

If you think 40k out the door is too much for a '15 XLT FX4 with 30k miles on it that looked and drove like a brand new truck with all service records through that dealership with oil, fuel, and air filters changed every 3k, already tinted and rhino lined a bad deal then I guess I did. But from all my research and looking (for months) I thought it was a damn good deal. So basically I paid around $37k before TT&L. I'm happy with it.

I got mine at invoice and it took about half an hour. I told them don't waste my time so they didn't. I bought 2 transit connects from them also, one of them they drove out to my house with all the paperwork and delivered. Never even had to go to the dealer.

Doesn't do you much good in Texas, but if you are ever up in MD Waldorf Ford's commercial guys are the ****.

And btw...that was 5k under what they were asking for it. I'm sure the guy who traded it in on a '17 took a bath on it.

I agree with old school. I don't play the haggle game or the payment game. Ain't got time for that ****. This is what I'll give you out the door, take it or leave it.

So I found this one at FIAT of McKinney, Tx. It is used but only has 1500miles. Listed at $73K with a 6in on 37s and 22s.

On new I would agree with you...used is a different story. Again. I'm happy and I know I didn't pay too much. Love the '17's but I wouldn't love to pay for one...

When you start getting really specific about a truck, exact color, certain options......etc. You're going to be stuck buying it wherever you find it. I normally buy most of my stuff from North Central Ford or Bob Tomes, but neither had the last 2 vehicles that I wanted (I was looking for specific features), Don Davis had them, that's where I ended up getting them from.

That's what I figured. I thought about ordering one but I'm not 100% sure yet. May just settle.

Played the haggle game at Anderson Ford in Cleveland, TX (just outside of HTX) but I thought the price was more than fair for my truck.

In the Houston area I found that the folks at Conroe Ford were much more willing to make a deal than the salesman at planet Ford. I never made it out to Katy but I saw online they had a handful of decent deals

Cody @ Haag Ford has a lot of fans and compliments on Facebook. Some of the best pricing and service that I've heard.

Zook Motors also has great reviews on the fb pages. I know of people who have traveled to buy from these dealers.
