F-150 Lightning Platinum
Hi guys,
was debating for a while to trade in my BMW 750... Yes, quite a change.
Found a used, like new 2023 Platinum with 3k miles.

Curious, what is a decent price for that truck? Listed at $72k. I am at arounds 68k, but wondering if even that is a bit on the high side?
Obviously the current financing offers for a new one are nice too, where this one will probably put me in the 5% interest rate ( I have a FICO Score of >830)
Appreciate y'alls input.

Thanks

WOW!
Yes... now that gives me some more leverage. I am in Tulsa, OK... so a bit of a different market, but even with delivery the one you shared is still way cheaper.

Thanks

I’d look online and find a dealer knowledgable with out of state transactions. I bought my truck 2,200 miles from my home but saved about $7,000 after adding the transportation costs.

This is the second truck in a row I’ve bought out of state and it was a pleasant experience all around.

I wouldn’t be looking at used EV’s unless you’re gonna get one under 25K otherwise you might as well buy a brand new one and get 0% interest unless you pay outright cash but even then buying a one or two year one ain’t worth it

This is what I did. Another thing is there are some solid discounts. Think 10+% off MSRP, then another $7500 off if the MSRP is under 80k.

For $25K+ difference it’s worth it to me all day long. As long as the service history is clean. A new platinum won’t qualify for the federal tax credit anyway.

I would also look at the window sticker. I looked at a new 23 plat. A month ago and it really did not have anything more than the lariat I wound up getting. Multi contour seats were deleted. No heated wheel but that’s an easy add after. And worse range because of the 22’s. I got a new 23 lariat ER. Was a special order so it had power running boards. 3 yrs of bluecruise included and the 80 pro charger (evse) all included. Got almost 25k off the truck.

Ryan, I live in Tulsa and have a 23 Lightning. When you get yours, we'll have to have our own car show. Best of luck.

I paid 60k in March for same truck with a few more miles, but under 15k is like new. Had the vehicle shipped from midwest to west coast.

I bought my used 23 in February and paid 72k. The truck has 2 inches of lift and leveled. It has Ford Performance rims and Rough Country tires. I love the truck but have never done better than 2.3 kw/mile. My average is around 1.8 kw/mile. Wish it was stock.

I bought mine at capital Ford in Charlotte. I bought it used also. I went back to trade it about five months later and it had depreciated $20,000.

I picked up my 2023 Lariat with 13K for $59K and the sticker price was $85K. It had a tri-fold tonneau cover too which is probably worth an additional $1500
