Do you lock in price and offers when ordering?

You can't combine PCO's if somehow you received multiple.
Nor can they be combined with A, or X plan purchases. National offers can be added, such as rebates if you special ordered before a certain date.

That’s not entirely correct. Some PCOs can be combined with X Plan.

Stands for Private Cash Offer. It's an incentive direct from Ford (Doesn't come out of the dealer's pocket in any way), people typically get them in the mail or email from Ford marketing. There are all sorts of theories as to how to get them, some have found that if you click around on the website a lot while logged in with your Ford account you're more likely to be targeted for one because they think you're in the market etc etc. They can range in value, usually in the $1k-$3k range though.
Great info, thanks!

Your dealer has the choice of delivering the truck based on the incentives at the time of order or the time of delivery. That includes PCOs.
How come it's the dealer's choice? PCO's and interest rate deals don't come out of the Dealer's pocket.

It's your choice as the buyer, I think they just meant the dealer can submit either of those two options when they submit the deal to Ford. Which one they submit would be your decision, whichever is more favorable financially.

From what I understand, the dealer discusses all options with the customer and it's a joint decision. Obviously the choice is always the lowest cost option for the customer since these incentives don't affect the dealer. That's my understand at this point, but I've yet to pick up my 22. :)

Well the dealership should do it on the best interest of the customer.

Absolutely I do, with prices, any discounts, and expected trade value (pending final confirmation of the trade-in's condition at trade-in time.) All on an agreement signed by both parties. My salesman at Shults Ford in Wexford PA is top-notch. I was ready to factory-order a car in 2010, and he told me to wait a week. Wouldn't tell me why. But I gave him my trust, and the next week Ford introduced 0% financing on the car I was ordering. This is why I've bought 2 more vehicles off of him since.
