So are the dealers required to show you the invoice on request, or does this just depend on how they are feeling? I got my 05 XLT Scab for 10 grand below sticker, but that was back during the employee pricing madness of the summer of '05, when we were sure gas would be 7 bucks a gallon by Christmas, and everyone was trading in their trucks and SUV's for sedans and hybrids.

For my 2011 FX4, many dealers offered me dealer invoice as their selling price. The best one I got was $600 below dealer invoice, so I asked the local dealer to match it, which they did. If you can tap into their dealer holdback, you are doing pretty good. For a $42K Truck, dealer holdback is about $1100. Plus I get rebates at the time of delivery and any preferred cash. I would recommend requesting 2011 literature via mail from Ford as they mailed me $750 in preferred cash (essentially another rebate) that is good through 3/12/11 (the day the MSP auto show begins). I'm hoping my truck is delivered in early March as Ford usually has an auto show bonus. If my timing is right I can get $2,500 in rebates, $750 in preferred cash, and $500(?) in auto show bonus rebate off the dealers price. The wait is what will kill you, not the price!! Good luck.

Found this http://www.ford.com/brochures/ not sure if it will work for the additional 750.00 but worth a shot!

That's some old school thinking don't you think. Not everyone needs 4wd and certainly shouldn't be a requirement when buying a truck, which is why so many aren't. He will save in the long run with less maintenance costs and slightly better fuel economy. No reason to get it if you will never use it.
