If you’ve been waiting for the market to cool down before pulling the trigger on a new truck, your patience is about to pay off in a big way. We are officially in the thick of the spring selling season, and Ford is highly motivated to move metal. How motivated? There are currently around 28,000 unsold 2025 Ford F-150s sitting on dealer lots across the country.

Dealerships are sweating to clear out that leftover inventory to make room for the 2026 models. Because of that, this year’s March “Truck Month” is delivering some of the most aggressive incentives we’ve seen in recent memory. Whether you want to finance, lease, or bring cash to the table, here are the absolute best Ford F-150 deals you can snag right now.

1. 0% APR Financing is Back

Interest rates have been the ultimate buzzkill for truck buyers over the last couple of years, but Ford Credit is bringing back the holy grail: 0% APR financing for up to 60 months on select 2025 and 2026 F-150 models.

If you’re financing a $50,000 truck, dropping your rate from a typical 6% down to zero saves you thousands of dollars in interest over the life of the loan. To sweeten the pot, depending on your region, Ford is also letting well-qualified buyers defer their first payment for up to 90 days. It’s essentially free money if you plan to keep the truck long-term.

2. Massive Cash on the Hood for STX and XLT Trims

Not financing through Ford? No problem. The manufacturer rebates right now are staggering if you’re looking at the volume-selling STX and XLT trims.

3. Sub-$500 Lease Specials

If you’re a buyer who likes to swap into a fresh truck every three years with a lower monthly payment, March’s lease deals are incredibly competitive.

Right now, the 2025 F-150 STX 4×4 (with the 2.7L V6) is leasing for around $359 to $479 per month for 36 months. You can expect to put down roughly $4,500 to $5,800 upfront (covering your first month’s payment and capitalized cost reduction).

Lease pricing always fluctuates slightly based on regional taxes and fees, but the subsidies on the STX and XLT right now are fantastic.

4. Don’t Forget the Stackable Cash Rewards

Ford is still running its exclusive cash reward programs, and the best part is that these can usually be stacked right on top of your negotiated Truck Month deal. If you qualify for any of the following, you get an automatic $500 to $1,000 slashed off the price:

If you want the lowest possible monthly payment, hunting down a lease on a leftover 2025 STX is the move. But if you’re in it for the long haul, locking in 60 months of 0% APR is hands-down the smartest financial play you can make this month. Just keep in mind that these specific offers expire on March 31, 2026, and the best configurations will get scooped up fast.
