Where did you get this vehicle.

I am looking and having great difficulting get the "deal". All I am looking for is a limited 08 (prefer Creme brulee) with hitch and roof rack/rails,,,and won't mind liftgate auto...

 

I am aware of (locally) $2000 total rebates..but I want to know the charge before rebates.

Anyone got info on the July incentives?

 

Keep getting phone calls from dealers, offering me something else, 07, demos, different models...and keep asking me what I am planning. I am planning to get the car for the price I want for the car I want...or I will move from ford to another vehicle by another maker (2nd choice).

I just picked up our 2008 Edge LImited at invoice + 2500 rebates. Decent offer on trade-in. Wife's happy, I'm happy. We're in the Dallas metroplex.

Dealer invoice is a good deal (the rebates come from the factory so you can really ignore those when comparing dealer prices). I wouldn't expect to do much better than that unless the dealer had one they wanted to get rid of for some reason.

 

Go to kbb.com or edmunds.com and look up the dealer invoice for the vehicle with the same options, etc. Add destination plus around $400 and you'll be very close to the actual dealer invoice. The $400 covers legitimate fees that the dealer pays like fuel and local dealer association advertising. These fees vary by vehicle and by location so they're not included in the online sites. This will get you to dealer invoice plus or minus $150.

 

The dealer will also charge you a documentation fee which is usually $300-$400. If you had X plan you'd pay a few dollars below dealer invoice and only a $75 doc fee.

Thanks for the reply. Actually, I just got off the phone with the dealer - via internet sales, and they are offering invoice (32,531.95), also taking off $500 holdback, plus, of course, $2500 in rebates. If you check the vin - you'll see that it is a limited, without the sun roof (didn't want that), but it has 20inch wheels and a rear seat entertainment system. I already have the GPS navigation - so I didn't need that. It includes roof rails which I didn't need. I think it's a decent deal. Considering the 2009's will be out soon, it's probably already depreciated in value - and certainly will when I drive it off the lot. But I plan to keep it for a long time - 6-8 years - unless it turns out to be a dud.

This will be only the second Ford I've owned. My first ever - bought in 2001 - is a 2002 Expedition - Eddie bauer. Best vehicle I've ever ever owned! Just can't afford to drive it much anymore - except on long trips or vacations. But I will keep it a few more years.

I hope this Edge serves us as well as the Expedition has!

Thanks

This is my first time to post. I am in the market for an Edge - Limited. I have a vin # and dealership - and wish to confirm the invoice that they quote me.

The vin#VIN 2FMDK39C28B A76190. Sam Pack Ford in Carrolton, TX. Can you check on the invoice and holdback. They are quoting a $3000 total of rebates. Offer is at invoice + rebates. Is there much room for negotiation below that?
