I had the idea that I would move into an F250, trade my F150 in, and sell my F350. Get down to one vehicle to register, inspect, and maintain. So…I go by Tyler Ford to see what they have. I’ve never been able to buy from them before, but what the hell, maybe changes have been made. . Nope ! They had a 2021 Lariet F250 that I liked, in acolor I liked, with almost 17K miles. It also had a 6.2 gas engine. They were asking $74995 for it. They want to give me $26000 for my 2018 F150 with a 5.0 and 75K miles. My truck is in very good shape with a Leer camper top on it. That’s bad enough but when going to their website you can view the sticker from this truck when it was new. The original sticker price was around $57K and a year later they wanted $75K ??? Bullchit, and I told him so. This isn’t really a rant because I expected them to be too high, just not outrageously high.

Ludacris. But then again the American way. Stretch out payments and buy more then you can afford

I laugh out loud when guys financing boats and RV's for 30 years want to give me unsolicited "financial advice"!!! Man times sure have changed and fast...

Motor went out in my 09 150 yesterday... I will have a new motor in it by next Tuesday with a 3yr 100,000 mile warranty. I called a few dealers yesterday and this morning but refuse to over pay for a new or used truck. Sure... you can stretch out the payments but when we are about to roll into a recession and they are over valued to start with... well... I like my money...

As far as trade goes I traded in 2016 f150 lariat fx4 with over 98k miles on it and got quite a bit more than what they offered you. Sounds like tyler is for sure not the place to do business.

Ford is going fullbore with the new F150 being electric. 40 years of Top sales of any vehicle and they are pulling the switch big time. Not sure how that may correlate but it seems odd on the trade value. Toyota is beating my door down to get my 2019 Tundra on a trade....or just sell it to them. May just be that dealer having a plumb market and zero need to play softball for customers.
