You can try Chris Tacinas at Burt Arapahoe Ford. 303-705-0209. He is the Fleet Manager and ordered me my truck on Sept. 19 Built the week of Oct. 16 and to be delivered week of Nov. 2. I thought this was pretty fast but the deal is at invoice + delivery not 500 over or anything. I am quite satisfied with him and his work keeping me posted. You might give him a try. I do not think you will be disappointed. I ordered a CC PSD F350 4X4 Dually Lariat loaded.
Concur with D.J. on Burt. I ordered mine with G.L. Smith in fleet. Ordered in July and my truck was the first 2001 to arrive on their lot. Picked it up on 28 August. They do the first oil change if you so choose. They use Motorcraft oil and filter. My price was 249 over invoice. The 249 was their destination/prep charge. Remember, the invoice includes advertising, fuel charge (they fill it up for you) and delivery charges. G.L.'s number is 303-643-9000.

I went through Stevinson's Golden Ford. I was able to deal direcly with the sales mgr, Lloyd Slaughter. I got the invoice price, no markup. I'm happy with the service I got.
Call Spradley in Cheyenne & talk to Mike Irvan the Sales manager. Bought mine long distance from Vegas & couldnt be happier. Lots of callbaks cheking to see if everything was good.
Their # is free to call at 1-800-447-3673. They even delivered mine to DIA. I believe if you ask nicely he will do 199.99 over invoice. Plus they will give you a thousand bucks if anyone beats their price. Room to negotiate.
I'm ordered my truck from a dealer in Kansas. $500 BELOW invoice. Best deal I could get here was from the Cheyenne dealer and that was at invoice ($200 below but then a $199.50 DP charge).
I would have stuck with the Cheyenne dealer as it is not worth it to me to go so far for $500 bucks but they wouldn't let me back out if the ordered truck came in with the cackle or knock. The Kansas dealer will.
When the dealers in this area heard I wanted a Crew Cab Lariat diesel, their eyes turned to dollar signs and the price ranged from $1500 over to 7% over. However, I didn't try Burt so if they are $250 over, jump on it.
