The A-Plan price is calculated using a formula that subtracts the dealer holdback and advertising assessment from the dealer invoice, then adds a small administration fee. This often results in savings that reach into the thousands, particularly on well-equipped trucks. For example, the 2026 Ford F-150 XL starts at $49,116, while the STX is listed at $51,983. For specialized needs, the Police Responder trim carries an MSRP of $56,475. Pricing MSRP and destination charges (source: MarketCheck VIN Decode (consensus)) Feature XL STX Police Responder XLT Lariat Tremor King Ranch Raptor Platinum Starting MSRP $49,116 $51,983 $56,475 $65,271 $74,568 $74,652 $79,568 $85,137 $85,358 Lowest starting MSRP: XL at $49,116 Moving up the lineup, the XLT starts at $65,271, and the luxury-oriented Lariat is priced at $74,568. For those seeking off-road capability or premium comfort, the Tremor starts at $74,652, the King Ranch at $79,568, and the Platinum at $85,358. Even the high-performance Raptor is part of the lineup at $85,137. These figures represent the starting MSRP; actual pricing may vary based on eligibility and options. Please contact Tri State Ford for current pricing details., making these capable machines more accessible for local contractors and families alike. For heavy-duty requirements, the 2026 Ford Super Duty offers extreme towing and hauling capabilities. The Super Duty F-250 XL features a 6.8L 2V DEVCT NA PFI V8 Gas engine and a TorqShift-G 10-speed SelectShift Automatic transmission. This truck is engineered for durability, handling riverfront bluffs and steep grades with ease. If you are managing a fleet or a job site, you can explore our F-Series work truck inventory to find the exact configuration you need. Before you visit, our finance department can help you understand how these discounts affect your monthly payment, and you can even value your current trade-in online to see how much equity you can put toward your new purchase. Affordable Versatility with the Maverick and Explorer Employee Incentives If your daily routine involves a mix of suburban errands and weekend DIY projects, the 2026 Ford Maverick is a standout choice. This compact pickup is designed for efficiency and practicality, featuring a 2.5L I4 engine and an automatic transmission that delivers an impressive 40 mpg city / 34 hwy. The XL trim starts at $30,835, while the XLT is priced at $35,538. For those who prefer a more street-tuned aesthetic, the Lobo Standard features a 2.0L I4 and starts at $37,990. Under the employee pricing program, these already affordable trucks become even more enticing for first-time buyers and those looking to downsize without sacrificing utility. The Ford Explorer also benefits from these incentives, providing a spacious and safe environment for families. With seating for up to seven and advanced safety features, it is a reliable companion for school runs and road trips. When comparing the Explorer to rivals like the Toyota Highlander, the Ford often provides a more robust towing capacity and user-friendly technology at a competitive price point, especially when the American Value discounts are applied. We find that families often prioritize the Explorer's cargo flexibility when they see how easily the rear seats fold to accommodate sports gear or groceries. To help you get started on your purchase, you can complete a secure credit application from the comfort of home. This allows our team to have your options ready when you arrive. If you are considering a pre-owned option instead, we invite you to shop our Carfax 1-owner vehicles to find a high-quality, well-maintained SUV or truck. Additionally, be sure to check our monthly manufacturer specials to see if there are further incentives that can be paired with your purchase to maximize your savings. Understanding the Math Behind the American Value Program and Final Deadlines The "American Value for American Values" program is a limited-time event, scheduled to conclude on July 6, 2026. This gives buyers a specific window to take advantage of internal company pricing that is typically not available to the public. The math is straightforward: by paying the A-Plan price, you are essentially bypassing the retail markup. On a high-trim vehicle like an Expedition or a Super Duty, these savings can be significant, often ranging from several hundred to several thousand dollars depending on the specific model and equipment groups selected. One common question we hear from shoppers involves the impact of taxes and fees. It is important to note that while the employee pricing significantly lowers the base price of the vehicle, standard state taxes, title fees, and license charges still apply based on your residency. However, because the purchase price is lower, the total tax amount is often reduced as well. This transparency is a core part of our commitment to an honest and respectful buying experience. We want you to feel confident that the price you see is the price you pay, with no hidden surprises. If you have a vehicle to trade, you can use our instant cash offer tool to get a real-time valuation. This can be a great way to further lower the net cost of your new Ford. For those looking to keep their current vehicle in top shape before trading it in, you can order new tires by year, make, and model through our site. Once you have done your research, the best next step is to schedule a test drive to experience the performance and technology of these new models for yourself. Standard Safety and Technology in the New Ford Truck Lineup Safety is a primary motivator for our customers, and the 2026 Ford F-150 delivers with a suite of proven driver-assist features. The IIHS has recognized the F-150 as a TOP SAFETY PICK, earning a G (Good) rating in several categories, including front crash prevention and side impact tests. Standard features often include front crash prevention and lane-keeping systems, providing peace of mind whether you are driving through the rolling hills of Calcutta or merging onto the highway. These technologies are designed to be intuitive, helping you stay focused on the road without being overwhelming.

In addition to the A-Plan savings, the Lightning may qualify for the federal EV tax credit of up to $7,500 for new vehicles, depending on the specific MSRP and household income requirements. This combination of manufacturer discounts and federal incentives makes transitioning to an electric truck more affordable than ever. The Lightning features a standard 4WD system and provides a smooth, quiet ride that is perfect for the varied terrain of the tri-state area.

During the coldest days, it is typical to see a range loss of between 15% and 30%. To mitigate this, we recommend utilizing EV preconditioning while the vehicle is still plugged in and garaging the vehicle when possible. Ford's Power Promise also includes a complimentary home charger and standard installation, which addresses one of the most common hurdles for first-time EV owners. This program also provides an 8-year / 100,000-mile battery warranty for long-term protection. You can find more details on these electric models by checking our manufacturer vehicle specials. If you are looking for a deal on a pre-owned electric or hybrid model, browse our used vehicle specials for current offers. We are committed to helping you understand the total value of ownership, including charging costs and tax benefits.
