So I have this dilemma.
2010s are starting to disappear.
There is a $3000 Recycle your ride program that expires on Sept 30th.
There is a $5894 Employee pricing program that expires on Sept 30th.
There is a $5250 Delivery allowance that may or may not expire.
There is a $1500 Cash incentive to use Ford credit that expires on Sept 30th.
There is a $1000 Costco program that expires on Sept 30th.
This all adds up to a $16644 discount.
2011s have a $1750 Delivery allowance.
2011s can't be ordered yet and may or may not be ordereable by Sept 30th to take advantage of the above offers.
2011s are likely to go up in Price.
I want an Ecoboost. Why? Turbos work better in Calgary due to the altitude. Tuning them is also usually easy.
I don't need the truck until March 2011ish so the timing would work if I could order it before the end of Sept.
If I can't, which is likely as I am guessing that Ford is waiting on releasing pricing until after the programs expire, do I buy a 2010?
I know I will regret getting something older, but I can't get over the discounts either... haha. I am a cheap half asian.
I am guessing the resale on the 2011s will be much better than the 2010s relatively speaking due to the new V8s and V6s. Besides being a year newer, I think that the 5.0 will hold value better than the 5.4.
So, I know the delivery allowance is likely to increase later in the year 2011. I am also guessing that the Costco program is likely to return. Employee pricing could return, but that would be in July of 2011 which is quite far away... I have no idea if the RYR program will stick around.
Opinions? haha
