Yet another option is to seek a quote on-line and go through Internet Sales.Quick newby questions... Haven't custom ordered before. Since Ford's site is not updated with 2023s info, can someone be kind enough to tell me how does the process of ordering with an order guide works?
Do I pre-fill the information of what I am looking for and give it to the salesperson? Or do they fill it out by asking me questions (i.e. Equipment group/packages/exterior options, etc.)
Since there weren't many changes from 2022 to 2023, can I use the site as a template, fill out and print to have as a reference?
Thank you in advance.
Using Ford's web site, fill out the information as closely as possible (it doesn't matter if '22 still shows. I did same, completing a quote for a '21 when I wanted a '22.). Towards the end, there will be a notes section where you can place any information you like, like cutting-and-pasting a message; this is where you can put Order Guide-specific information and explain yourself. Ford will kick that request to the supporting dealer (you enter your zip part of the way through). Later, someone from Internet Sales at that dealer will reach out to you.
The information/codes in the Order Guide is what's available to the dealer via Ford's Web Order Entry system.
I went the above route. I used the initial Ford query, Internet Sales and e-mails to set everything up and haggle to the final price. Finally, I went in, confirmed everything, signed for it and waited for delivery.
I enjoyed using the above versus sitting in front of someone in the traditional way; it gave me time to craft my replies (I can be slow in my thoughts) and gave me the best advantage when discussing pricing.
