About to purchase 06 AWD fully loaded.....
Just got back from my dealership. Here is the breakdown from the offer and nego
MSRP = $33815
X plan = $ 31618.00
They offered the vehicle to me for 2% over X plan
Offer $32250.00
+ 3% tax $ 967.00
+ Doc Fee $ 359
+ Tags (Custom) $46
Total out the door
$ 33622
They also say that Ford would finance me for 63 months @4.99%, which is better than my credit unions 60 months @ 5.25. Also going to look into getting the extended warranty just for coverage for the unexpected. I'll let everyone know how it goes today.

May I ask what credit union you are with to get 3.99%?

I got the loan though my local governemnt employees credit union last fall. It was a great deal, but they are up around 5.25% now.
I should have gone private party, but I litterally bought the FEH off the dealers lot the day they first got it in. I had no clue that I was going to buy a new car that day until I saw it sitting there.
Are you getting the sunroof?

Glad to hear you decided to go ahead with it, I have a feeling you'll be quite pleased. The deal sounds pretty good, did any of the info I gave you help?

My deal did actually come from many sent Emails, a young man at a dealership not too far away. He told me to drop in, and he would beat any deal I was offered. So far, he has, even from another salesman at the same dealership that I had spoke to about two weeks earlier, that said they do not sell them below MSRP. My only concern now is to try to nego a ESP into the deal. These vehicles are new, and so is the technology, so I want to make sure I am covered in the case of the unexpected. There is a lot of things on this vehicle that I can not work on. Any suggestions on a Ford extended warranty? Or maybe a 3rd party?
AS it sits right now, its $33,622 out the door (The Escape, tax, tags and the Dock fee(not exactly sure what that is)). We are nego even more over another issue, so I expect to come out of the deal around $33k even out the door. I'll keep everyone informed.

Also, see if the business manager will show you their cost on these - let them make a reasonable (to you) profit. The dealer can make a killing off these if you let them sell it to you for list price. If they won't show it to you, they are trying to overcharge you.
Good luck.

They have a lot of options for years and mileage, get the one that suits your needs best - no sesnse haveing a 6 year/75k warranty if you do 75k in three years, that kind of thing.

That was another thing that worried me was how much does a ESP really cost them? I don't want to pad their wallets, but like any other business, they also deserve a profit.

If you do that much driving, why would you ever take out a 60 month loan? Best case, you'll end up making payments on a car that's not worth what you still owe. And worst case, the car will die and you'll still be paying for it.
Realistically, no one knows what the lifespan of the FEH or its batteries really are. So be careful with the 60 month loan. In reality, it's more of a ploy to get people to purchase more expensive cars and pay more interest, regardless of the car's lifespan.
