You were happy to buy it at that price right? What made you want to find out you could of gotten a better deal? :

I think this guy is good at what he does......i wish he worked in my store, i might start making money for a change.
Exactly Thunder . I dont see the complaint of this thread christos ! The sales man did the job his employer asked of him. he sold you the car for a profit , and you were happy to sign the deal at the price worked out ! How they come at the price they started off at is their business . I dont see how he decieved you ! You already know you could have found a better price and you didnt because you didnt feel you needed to so I wont tell you its your fault! merry Christmas and happy new year to you and enjoy your new car as it is a great car !

Ok.. let me get this straight, $26,398 is the price of Ford Employee Discount and your accessories, and onroads... and that was the price that you would have happily paid?

And he went in and you agreed on a deal to only pay $26,200 for all of that?! What the hell is the problem?! It doesn't matter if he said some price, people make mistakes! Maybe he added up wrong? Its not hard to make a mistake..

Bottom line is, you are saving nearly $200 on the price you would have been happy to pay with all the Ford discounts and stuff, stop complaining, he has done nothing wrong by you!

I take it that these are the heavy duty model and are ideal for attacking car salesmen?

(I'm still not sure if you work for a Govt dept or Ford)
