No no no. The brochure's for the 2016 F-150's are backordered till the first week in December.

No you have to ask if they having any promotions available for you. The term is labeled as Private Cash. The cash offer I received was for $1000. Yes $1000.

LOL. I def kiss'd the lady's bottom on the phone. I mainly led the conversation with the truth not that anyone wouldn't. As I recall the call sort of went like this:

Me: Hi I was calling to see if I could request a 2016 Ford F-150 brochure.

Ford Rep: Unfortunately they are delayed until the first week in December. But you can go to Ford.com and find all the info you are looking for in the meantime. They are offering a Friends & Family plan now.

Me: Honestly, I have put in a custom F-150 order and was counting on larger rebates than October, but with the pricing set and the truck ordered I was already at the same price. So is there a promotion that might apply that would make a better rebate than $500?

Ford Rep: Well I have a special Private Cash offer for $1000. This should sweeten your rebate deal, yes?

So as you can see this is the honest way I went about it. Another thing you might want to try is if you haven't signed up for Ford Mailing's for promotional info you might want to do that first then wait a few hours then call and state that you are on the mailing list as well. As a systems administrator at my work I'm not a fan of spam email but I can create a filter after I buy this truck as so could you.

Good luck. Let me know if there is anything I might be able to help with.

Unfortunately cotus isn't working for the 16 yet. Your only option is to message Ford Service on here, and he will be able to give you more info, possibly a build date. You can also search ford window sticker and put in your vin which will also show your build date.
