I had a voicemail waiting for me when I got in to work this morning. It was from a local Ford dealership. I was informed that they had a sale this weekend on F-150's. The sale was $12,000 off the MSRP. That would basically put a fully loaded F-150 Lariat 4x4 Crew Cab into the same price range as the Liberty Limited CRD that I ordered.
Of course the sale ended yesterday. The message was left on my phone after I left work last Friday, so I had no idea that the sale was going on. I suspect that there will be other sales on F-150's in the near future since the new model year will go into production soon (if not already). I'm also guessing that Ford has had a difficult time with F-150's sales, with gas prices they way they are and the expensive sticker price of F-150's.
Now the next time I'm tempted to go over to the Dark Side I'll have to ask myself - why do I want a Liberty again?
Of course I know that the Liberty CRD will save me in fuel expenses, but what else will I use as ammo?...
