Regarding the $100 reservation deposit:
I was invited to order in wave 2 but with pro sold out I let it hang (has until 3/31 to order) and today switched reservation to a dealer with no ADM. Ford CS guy does the switch and says “the $100 will be going back on your card”. I asked “don’t you need...
Surprisingly the dealer did their work up front to align with their long ago stated $5k ADM. Credit they’re clear about it, and happy to now call Ford and change to a nearby dealer who’s MSRP.
Anyone remember what the number to call is to change dealers after you get the email invite to order but before you actually order? Is it the same number as the one listed on my Ford account webpage that they say to call if I want to change dealers?
Need to line this up. TIA!!
Can you expand on this? I don’t follow the second part of that explanation.
if I buy one and sell to my dad without markup, do I have any reason to worry?
What’s everyone’s thoughts on the value of Pro if dealer is tacking on $5k ADM? I’d switch dealers but I’m #2 in line so don’t want to risk the switch. May just eat it. :rolleyes:
Are you #2 because there was no one else there, or because your reservation number put you there upon transfer? I want to switch dealership tomorrow, but afraid my early first day reservation will essentially be pushed to back of the line at the new dealership. (I’m not trying to get a priority...
Tangential question: is it confirmed that if you change dealership now, that you’ll be at the back of the line for the waves as it applies to that dealership? Or do we think that an early reservation (non dealer prioritized one) will still end up in the same general place for both dealerships...
What is a key switch? A normal “put the actual key in the hole” ignition? Does the fob lock and unlock the car? I’m guessing no remote start to warm the car either on fob, but ford app might have it?
Credit to them being up front and clear. $5k not bad especially if you’re someone with the scratch for Lariat or higher. (I’m Pro or nothing)
So they’re giving you the opportunity to look around with time to spare. And if they’re putting it down on paper, maybe not the worst offer you’ll see.
Didn’t we learn from the other forums?
my guess is we’ll be INVITED in November to place the order on a staggered basis starting Dec or later.
“Later this month, … invited in waves to order…”
The verb is “invited”. :geek:
Fair point. I do know they just reauthorized to have the NJ rebate funded again, and this time it is point of sale which is good. But fair to think they may run out during 2022 before many (most?) of us receive delivery and close the purchase.
Apologies if stated already (since the 9/25 post I’m replying to), but if you’re a NJ resident and buy from a NJ dealer you are eligible for $5k rebate if msrp is below $45k; $2k off msrp $45-55k. If you’re going Lariat or above it would be worth it to cross state lines, but for Pro you’re best...
How many orders are needed in this group order to get the 5% below invoice locked in?
What date is this special available to? (Such as when will the quantity be locked in and the group order submitted to Ford?)
“Up to” sounds like a
sales pitch without some backup details.
They’re working hard to cut costs and increase margin. But to me, that means that if they don’t offer the work surface/integrated step tailgate as an available upgrade on the Pro, I could swap it with the standard ICE tailgate to do the upgrade myself.
Do they sell full tailgates direct from...
