I have been looking to trade in the SHO for a Flex. I have been searching for about a month and have my eye on a 2013 Ecoboost Limited with 33K miles. They have it listed at $30,500 and I am thinking I can talk them down another $1K. Any thoughts? What have you guys paid recently?

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

last month I traded my n/a 09 flex and my 13 sho in for my 13 flex w/eco. dealer had it listed for $30,900 with 42k miles. I got it for $30k. they had the upper hand. I wanted the e/b, and there were only (2) 2013's within 500 miles of me, and I'm sure the dealer knew it. I have no regrets.

Good luck with your search.  I wanted a Flex, Explorer Sport, or SHO.  Ended up with an MKS.  It wasn't my first choice, but they seem to be the best value on 3.5 EB vehicles.  Just sharing in case you are flexible.
