Ford Private Cash Offer

[FlyingSpaceLlama]

That 0% interest deal on the 2016 is looking pretty good right now, and it might be time to trade in. Since I don't want to throw money away, I have been trying my best to convince Ford to send a Private Cash offer my way. Requesting brochures via email hasn't resulted in an offer, just the brochures. The brochures I requested by mail haven't gotten here yet (where do they mail these things from, Antarctica?). I've used the 'Let us find it for you' feature on the website and gotten spammed by dealerships tripping over themselves to sell me a car over msrp and give me $9 for my trade (not worried about pricing, worst-case scenario I use X-Plan). Still, none of this has resulted in a coupon.
I even called up marketing and spoke to a fairly oblivious lady who was kind enough but told me that Ford has never extended Private Cash offers for any vehicle. She was even helpful enough to inform me that new vehicles have an msrp printed right on the window sticker, and that I probably wouldn't pay much more than that. :lol:
At this point I'm feeling mildly frustrated and impatient, and I've wasted far more than $750 worth of my time trying to get this offer. So I'd like some advice from those of you who have gotten offers; what should I try next? Does anyone happen to have the VINCENT code for the current Private Cash promotion?

I got one last month, but it expired on 7/28 like less than a week after I got it.

That's not cool. I've heard directly from Ford that they'll extend the date on the offer within reason if you call and ask.

I think the EAA $750 is still good. Worth the $40 to get X-Plan

Sweet. I'm already X-Plan since I work for a Ford supplier, but I'd gladly join EAA for the discount. Will be looking into this, thanks!

My catalog took a long time to come and it came 2 days after I bought the car and Koons Baltimore helped me get the $750 after the fact. Took forever, but it happened.

EAA $750 is valid until 1-3-2017

Sweet, I'll have to look into the EAA membership. I've heard you have to be a member for 60 days before they'll give you the benefits, any idea if that's true?

Also does anyone know of a good Ford dealer in the SC/NC/GA region? I have gotten a couple of incredibly low offers for my GT (dealers trying to mark up by $10-12k) and I'd like to find someone who will give me the actual trade value. The zero percent deal won't save me money if I give away my positive equity.

You need to have a membership lasting for more than 30(maybe its 60) days. ie a 1 year membership covers you.

Talked to my dealer about the $750, and they told me I couldn't use what I had due to it specifying had to be dealer stock, and since I custom ordered one from the factory, I was SOL.
