I ordered my Retail Unit on 09/02/14, built 11/23/14, released for shipping via rail 12/27/14, delivered late evening 01/09/15, drove it home the following day, 01/10/15. Wanna discuss the virtues of patience?Unless, perhaps, they've been waiting on an order since January or February.
(Not me!)
Usually not. A lot depends on whether or not you are using a Ford A-Plan, C-Plan, D-Plan or X-Plan and the nature of the Cash back incentives. Most are not stackable using any of these Plans unless specified on the offer. Check out the (fine) print or consult with a shade tree attorney.
Specifically the coveted Ford Private Cash -- I had one that expired, but the dealership said they would protect it, and that Ford would still honor it -- it was set to expire on 5/15. I submitted again for the heck of it, and got one via email that doesn't expire until 6/1. I'm getting a killer deal on my order anyway, so I don't want to get too greedy -- but the dealer said when they typed up everything to break down the price and attach my name to the car and VIN that upon delivery I would get at LEAST the deal they'd typed up -- maybe even better depending on what's available at the time of delivery? I'm just glad I have something to replace the expired coupon in the event it isn't honored (but the dealership said they would just increase their discount if that's the case). I've been working with Sheehy Ford of Gaithersburg MD -- specifically with Jeremiah there -- they've been really great to work with...
Like I stated before, if the vehicle is in transit and scheduled to arrive within a week or so, just have your P & A Agreement (dated) before the expiration date of the Private Cash Back expiration and that guarantees the savings. Well worth losing a weeks warrantee to lock in that much savings.
Oh, I don't disagree. If they screw me, I'll trash them relentlessly, and fortunately Montgomery County MD has a great government consumer protection organization. If they screw me, I'll walk the deal. If they screw me, I've already run to ground how to dispute the charge on my card with my credit card company even after the standard 60 days has passed. Trust but verify... Anyway, I honestly think that it's a simple case of I want to buy a car, and they want to sell a car -- I think it will all ultimately work out.
I'm not sure that's true, I think it includes 2016s as well. Just to double check this I pulled up the incentives for a 2016 fusion and it still showed. It is not showing yet for the 2016 mustang but it says to contact your dealer for retail offers (obviously still a lot of issues to work out for 2016 mustang's in their system). The fine print does say none of the special edition mustang's are covered (Shelby's, 50th anniversary LEs, etc) but makes no indication of ANY year, seems like you can use it on 2014s that are still on the lots.
Yeah I don't see a year mentioned on the fine print.I'm not sure that's true, I think it includes 2016s as well.
