I want to buy a new F-450 and I was hoping one of you might know of a good dealer or online source to get a great deal on a new truck. I do NOT want to pay over MSRP like i did on the ZR1 - lol. Anyway, any guidance would be appreciated. (more details below)

* The 'Net Price' is the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price minus any available incentives.
** The 'Starting' price is the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of the vehicle.
'Starting' price does *not* include any taxes, fees or other charges, except in South Carolina where MSRP includes tax and tags. Pricing and availability may vary based on a variety of factors, including options, dealer, specials, fees, and financing qualifications. Consult your dealer for actual price, payments and complete details. Vehicles shown may have optional equipment at additional cost.
*** Not all buyers will qualify for Ford Credit financing or other offers. Incentives lists are examples of offers available at the time of posting and are subject to change and expiration.

You don't indicate where you're located, but it doesn't really matter if you arrange a "courtesy delivery" of your new truck.
Bobby Williams can order your new truck exactly the way you want it, then have it delivered to you by a nearby Ford dealership. His first price offer will be hard to beat, probably close to invoice price. No "negotiation" required. Bobby is the fleet manager at a huge Ford dealership, and has been an active member of TheDieselStop for several years. He will provide you timely info on the status of your truck during that several-weeks it takes for Ford to build your truck and deliver it to a nearby Ford dealer. Numerous members of TheDieselStop use Bobby as their Dealerperson, regardless of where they live.

No reflection on Bobby, however, I cannot imagine many local dealers like the idea of servicing a vehicle they did not sell. I have run into grumpy dealers/service writers on more than one occasion where I bought at another location. It would take a smart dealer to understand the benefits of providing excellent service even on vehicles they did not sell.

15 days in shop; a factor in deciding to sell.
Most dealerships are divided into profit centers. The new-car sales department is only one of the profit centers. Others are parts sales, used vehicle sales, fleet sales, and the service department. In some the F&I (finance and insurance) department is a seperate profit center.
When you buy your vehicle from Bobby Williams, Bobby arranges a "courtesy delivery" with your local dealer. So your local dealer will receive your new truck off the transporter, clean it up, and do all the paperwork to deliver the vehicle to you. They will probably even put their dealership logo on the tailgate or license plate frame. But that courtesy delivery costs you a coupla hundred bucks. TANSTAAFL. So the service manager will know his dealership delivered the vehicle to you and made a buck doing it.
No reasonable service manager cares where you bought your vehicle. He wants your service business and he will beg and plead for it. The service manager is concerned with his profit center - the service department. He could care less about the new vehicle sales profit center or the fleet sales profit center.
