Some day I want to get a King Ranch, but it probably won't happen until well into the 2011 model year. I recently discovered that I am eligible for X-plan pricing through my employer. I was looking at the x-plan site which has a section where you can look up X-plan prices for a given model and trim line. Everything from XL to Lariat was listed, but nothing above Lariat. Reading the plan rules I don't see anything that says the plan is limited to in-stock vehicles, or certain models. So I would expect KR models, or Platinums, or HD's, or anything else to be eligible no matter what - so why didn't they give prices for those models? Is it because it's late in the model year (they only showed 2010 models) and all of the upper-end trimlines are sold out?

thx,
Jay

 

I'm sure someone else can give a better explanation, but I think just due to all the models that the F series has on each of its levels its just too hard. They did have FX4's so I was able to look at that but don't recall seeing the others either when I bought and was looking in March and bought early April.

I'd think with X plan and similar incentives to what the 2010's have you should see approximately 10k off give or take.

 

kr, plats and harleys are covered under x plan....
there is a link at the ford partner site to ask for them to send you the figures...last time she called me on a sunday afternoon to to let me know they just sent my dealer the invoice and then told me teh figures.

 

It is 100% up to each individual dealership wether or not they honor "a, X, and Z" plans.

"Most" vehicles are eligible. Generally SVT products are exempt, although when I purchased my Cobra it was with "A" plan.

Each pin # is valid for 1 year from the date it is generated.

here is the discount info I found on my employee site:

Pricing Formula

The AZ-Plan price is the amount shown on the line labeled appropriately near the bottom of the factory invoice. The New Vehicle Purchase Program price includes advertising, finance costs, transportation, and Company Administration Fee.
AZ-Plan
Dealer Invoice - Holdback - Advertising Assessment + Administration Fee* (see sample invoice)


X-Plan is a pre-determined price based on dealer invoice or A-Plan price depending on brand. The X-Plan price is noted on the dealer invoice.

X-Plan

Ford/Mercury
Dealer Invoice - (0.4% * Dealer Invoice) + Administration Fee* (see sample invoice)

Lincoln
Dealer Invoice + (0.6% * Dealer Invoice) + Administration Fee* (see sample invoice)

Volvo
AZ-Plan + 2% of AZ-Plan


*$275 Administration Fee for 2010MY vehicles, $75 Administration Fee for 2009MY and prior vehicles.

All rebates and incentives will also apply.

When I bought mine using the X-Plan it HAD to be factory ordered. Not sure if this is typical or not though...dealers seem to make their own rules:-)

I just told him what I wanted and he showed me the price from a book. Simple and easy. All the other incentives were all still valid as well. Seemed decent.

 

yes under x plan you can order or buy off the lot....
some dealers frown on folks walking in with an X plan or any other plan...if they do GO elsewhere .
if you have a pin, as part of the deal your are obligated to let them know when you first start looking at a dealer.

if you order you may or may not get some of the incentives, like take delivery by XXXXX date to get 4500 cash back , etc

imo
if you know exactly what you want....and have cash for a down payment or the whole enchilada, you are better off ordering ti to your exact specifications.
i use teh x plan to basically cover the cost of the options. so i get a nicely equipped vehicle for the base price so to speak
