Definitely order to the specs you want or at least get the stuff that can’t be added later.

I wound up ordering a 2022 Oxford white Gt 401a, with A10, active exhaust, B&O, and 3.55s. It was around 54k with ttnl, and the discounts and current rebates from the dealer dropped it almost 5k and I’m putting down 10% as well.
Discounts and rebates? Is that a Texas thing? I'm going to order d-plan in NC and I'm not seeing any deals. They dealers don't really seem motivated to get me to order through them either. More of a "you want to order? Come by when I have free time and I'll do it begrudgingly".

there is a $1000 Ford factory discount for placing an order. If you can't go as far as Horsham PA for your car, maybe you can deal with places in Virginia?

Ok. Yeah, I found that. Seems it’s only for really big cities like LA, Detroit and Philadelphia.

Rubbish. Any dealer size/loc can do it.

Well shoot, Ford silently changed the discount down to $500 at some point recently. Bastards.

Place a new vehicle retail order for a 2022 Ford Mustang®, Bronco® Sport, Escape®, Edge® or Explorer® through a local authorized Ford Dealer on or before 7/5/22 and receive a $500 Bonus Cash offer.

Literally 2 weeks after I bought the left-over '21 EB I got a "private cash offer" of 2500/1250 from Ford.

According to my info, Ford program 38492 is now $500 on Mustang through 5/31/2022. SUVs still @ $1000 for the same period. I am in the Phila market

LOL believe me they don't get close to the pants with V8....haha
That's funny, I'm not like 'super' old yet at 36, and I've been married for some time, but I'm in OKC and I can't imagine anyone giving a crap what car you drive in the dating scene.

I can't honestly tell you you're wrong because I have no recent experience, but I'm thinking it might just be the crowd you are running with that's weird like that.

7.9% on a brand new car is "a great deal"? Maybe you're being sarcastic - LOL.

Go find a Credit Union which in many instances will have the best APR's or loan terms.

Yep. Sarcasm didn’t translate well.
I found that I needed to change my location (I was at work and it had my in Michigan). Once I did that it showed me a much lower financing rate and a $500 AND $1000 ordering rebate.

I’ll be submitting my order today

First house I bought the mortgage rate was 12%. Remember the Jimmy Carter years? LOL

Yeah, but my credit union is 3.99 and when I put in a different zip code the offer on the Ford site said 3.9 for 60. That is quite a big difference. Why are people in that other zip code getting screwed?

Ford Credit has always done different promotions (including credit offerings) in different areas/regions.

It varies from dealer to dealer I’d imagine. Probably because they make a bit more money moving what they have on the lot with dealer mark-ups and anything ordered through them is considered “extra” inventory and you don’t have to add the $2k+ of accessories they do.

I’m getting $1,000 plus $2,300, they are eating the destination charge, plus a few other things.

Probably because they have a higher default rate for some reason.

He could be right this v8 brings the charm from the 80 to 90 year old blue hairs. I stop at a light and I can hear the wheels squeaking on their walkers trying to get a closer look at this badboy! :)
