Hey all,
My 2022 Honda Ridgeline ownership was not a good one from buying process to quality issues. So after 42k miles, I traded it in for an AMERICAN car for the first time in my life.
2023 Ford F150 Platinum Powerboost with the monster 7.2kW ProPower Onboard generator and FX4 package.
More details: Star White Metallic Tricoat; Black leather interior; March 2023 production with 3.5 miles on odometer
MSRP: $78,755 (no dealer add-ons)
Sale price = $73,748 (after some negotiations)
Aftermarket parts that I want on the truck = $3,694 (includes spray bedliner, Ford 3-piece hard folding bedcover, door edge guards X-film, Catalytic converter plates, truck bed tray/rubber mat, wheel well liners).
Ford extended warranty 6 years / 125k miles = $3,205.
Trade-in of 2022 Honda Ridgeline with 42k miles and big cracked windshield = $32,000 (KBB has it around $31k-33k……after buying the car, I found my Honda on same dealer’s used car lot for $36,444)
Math time: 73,748 + 3694 + 3205 = $80,647 - $32,000 (trade-in) = $48,647
FINAL drive out price after TTL = $51,977.77. Bought last day in August 2023.
Not the greatest deal but I could not get them to go down to $50k OTD over a week of negotiation. Oh well, I did get everything that I wanted on the truck.
