I have ran the calculator and I was shocked to see how much my FG MKII LPI ute will cost, I know there is some movement in there when I visit the dealer, but when I see a TV ad for a Nissan Navara dual cab turbo diesel 4wd for what Ford is asking for my base Falcon ute... I start to wonder if I should be looking at other cars too.
Ford have to make their RRP more reflective of actual transaction prices if they want to sell cars in the internet age.

Just wondering......
The last new car you bought, did you just look at the internet and then decide or did you go to the actual dealers and look at them in real life?
How about the one before that?
And all these new cars, did you pay RRP or close to that or did you strike a good deal where you got a good price for your low km couple of year old trade?
