Assuming he isn't too picky and won't accept this customer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's more a sign of the times, a mate who owned a 6.0 calais VE traded it for a CX9. And he also has a 2014 F6 bought brand new and he's thinking of getting rid of that to buy something similar to the mazda. Brand loyalty died along time ago me thinks....

Given we are all Ford enthusiasts how many have actually purchased a New Ford from a Ford dealer? I can honestly say all my car's have been second hand, I just never had the earning ability to buy new. As it is the car I currently have, although I have admittedly had to fix some things on it the previous owner did, was too good a bargain for what I paid for it, I believe. The last time I went through a dealer, I got all the usual things thrown at me like "extended warranties", that aren't worth anything when you consider what they cover for what you pay, plus there's what consumer law covers you for anyway, which pretty much put me off going to dealers.

Maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guests Posted 01/08/16 08:42 AM Share Posted 01/08/16 08:42 AM (edited) F150 Raptor too... :D cops have one but now you can buy them. Guy took delivery of the first a few weeks back. See if I can find the article, I think they are doing 250 in RHD but they are close to 300k on the road.... :( edit:- Quote The F-150 range begins from $US26,540 in North America (for the regular-cab XL) with the Lariat 4x4 Crew Cab retailing from $US70,000. Fully converted in Australia, the latter model costs $A149,990, with the F-150 Black Ops model detailed above selling for $175,990. The full-noise Shelby-enhanced model sold for “just shy of $230,000”. Edited 01/08/16 08:45 AM by mightbuyaford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
