I recieved my brochure a couple of weeks ago and it came with the $750 private cash good until 5/21 and I recieved my "My Ford" magazine 2 days ago with a $750 bonus cash incentive attached to it, both have different program numbers attached to them so I think they'll probably let me use both.

It also drives away alot of people who at first see the MSRP and don't look any further.

The Ford Website just says "Please contact your local dealer for the latest information on our current retail offers."

Which drove me to not even look at Fords for a long time.

The main reason as I can see is it allows them to "adjust" the price depending on market demand. And as a model line gets older, the "adjust" it cheaper using these rebates.

I do wish they'd just be up front with the pricing. We all know the prices change over time. Just be honest about it.

My truck is due to arrive soon so I keep checking the incentives. They've increased another $250 since last week. It looks like the incentives will be around $6,000 for my truck if it arrives within a couple weeks (counting the brochure coupon). I thought I was going to miss some of the better incentives but they are now about double of what they were when I ordered the truck.

I am surprised that you dont get what was available when you ordered it. Are you under no obligation to purchase the truck yet?

General thing I've done is order a brochure and usually there is a 500-750 cashback thing in there and just take it to the dealership and they put it in the system when working your car deal. Did not know about the MyFord magazine thing, may have to ask around to see if there is one.

I think he's saying the rebates are going to be twice as good as when he ordered. You get the incentives that are available when you take delivery of the truck.

Exactly.
And other than telling my dealer exactly what I wanted so he could order it, I am under no obligation to buy it I suppose. But they order on a handshake with no deposits, so I wouldn't want to mess that relationship up for future deals.

Bout the same as when I ordered mine, course they do have the deal an everything on paper so what the incentive's were when the placed the order that's for sure what I'll get(so there locked in) Now if the incentive's get better I will also get the better incentives when it arrive's and I actually make the purchase. Mine is supposed to be here the 29th, can't wait

I requested a brochure online 2 weeks ago when I saw this thread and it just showed up. Unfortunately it didn't have the $750 coupon on the last page, all it had was a section saying they had $2,000 cash back incentive and I was preapproved for financing, no coupon for me.
