What should I get?

[Joemomma22]

I'd go with a 2017 Mustang GT/PP.

The 2017 Mustangs are being offered with 0% financing for 72 months currently (Ford Credit)!

Try to work that financing deal in...

I'm getting kinda tired of stating this. financing is not being changed from my existing loan. the vin is being replaced.

that said, My 2015 mustang has a financing note with 0% for 60 months. there are 46 months left on it or so at 0% and when i get the new vehicle there will be 46 months left on it or so at 0%. I dont care about what kind of "deal"i could make on a new mustang. Selling prices and programs don't exist for me at the moment. MSRP to MSRP swap.

For those of you that want to know what im looking at,

My roush is MSRP $41,910
GT replacement is around $44,370.

This means I would need to pay $2460 out of pocket (plus tax i would imagine). Currently I'm fighting the battle of "you guys gave me such a hard time giving me the money for the roush package and have screwed up and delayed this process for so long, I'm not paying." Meaning they are going to need to "discount" the msrp of the replacement GT or perhaps credit me the difference. I'm not sure exactly how they are going to do it but I told the manager yesterday that that was the only way that i was going to NOT take it to court. I'll let y'all know how that goes.

F150 5.0 Crew Platinum.
If not.. nicely optioned one.
Truck will hold it's value better than the Mustang.
I think a 2013 F-150 Platinum is worth the same as my 1 year old Mustang in the used market

I know it all sucks, at this point pay the ~2500$ and looks like you'd have the remainder of the original loan 46 months. That's not horrible. Just get the GT/color you want. just end this head ache.

pull your mods off if you can and sell them on the forums, maybe you can re-coupe some of that $2500. the base GT will make you happy and a good working car.

I just recently traded in my 2012 FX2 Crew F150 for my signature Stang. Haven't looked back. Love the driving experience again. I figured if I need to haul something, Uhaul rents trucks for $20 a day. A lot less than I was spending in fuel to move that big ass truck down the road!!!

I'd love this but right now I'm waiting to see if they're covering $2500 difference not $20000. That's my issue with the f150 lol

Parts haven't been on since January. Already sold 90%. Definitely not paying $2500 at this point though. Not after everything I've gone through to even get this far they're lucky I'm sill giving them the chance.

Yeah you're right about that. I've always been a man of 2 vehicles though. Used to have an old base model corrolla to commute with and my jeep for fun. So if I got an f150 I'd also be getting rid of the jeep and getting an older sport car of some sort.

If it were me, I'd keep the XJ and find a 2017 GT that you want. I would go behind the dealership and check that they are in fact doing what they say they are concerning getting what GT you want from a different dealership though.

The reason I say to keep the XJ is simply because I had built up a very capable 1995 Pajero complete with 33" KM2s, lockers, winch, snorkel etc and sold it last summer. I regret that very much now. Especially since it only cost me $40 a month insurance and yearly taxes were $17. I wasn't afraid to mess it up and it would go anywhere. I'm not sure if you'd feel the same way if you shed you XJ, but be warned.

defintely some great input. As per my dealership. I'm working along side a sales manager that i used to actually work with so he's doing way more than he needs to be doing as is. Its RAV (corporate level) that is causing any issues.

As for the xj, i would love to agree with you but i havent drove my jeep excluding winter because i wasnt taking the mustang out in snow. even before that i drove the corrolla shitbox more than the jeep. Neither of my brothers are big into jeeping anymore so i really dont use it for anything.

If the XJ is paid for and you can hook a trailer to it... Kinda kills the reason to get a truck IMHO. (depending on your needs of course) Keeping it may save you money if you intend on having 2 cars.

XJ has been paid for for 4 years already hahaha. Have a trailer hitch receiver built into the JCR Offroad bumper, but no trailer lights/plugs. Also its much less family friendly than a truck would be. Very load and rumbly and not the most reliable. always seems to have some problem or another.

Understandable if you want to part with it considering that. PM me when you put it up for sale if you don't mind.

Have you checked inventory at Koons in Baltimore? As I understand it, they keep a metric ass ton of mustangs in stock.

I've used Ford Locator which is the tool dealers use to select vehicles/trims/options and search nationwide. Koons didnt meet the criteria.

I counted at least 6 in stock, 401A, manual, non-red or black, priced at or below the msrp you posted for your eco..unless I'm totally misunderstanding the criteria.

I didn't mention a lot of the criteria. You're just going to have to trust me. There are a few that are more expensive (non convertible) that would be acceptable if they're going to take the hit but I'm sure as hell not. I'm a stickler so I have a very specific set of guidelines for the car.

Seems like you really only have 1 option if you're tired of waiting and that's to lawyer up.
