Yeah, kinda stinks. They are relatively generous w/that so maybe in a few months they will lift that restriction.
They must feel they don't have to offer this incentive on all vehicles to stimulate sales -- which would be the goal after all? Such incentives often exclude hot/new models, or the most popular and/or high-margin ones.
I guess I’m just being an optimist while looking at the trend of the past 10 years while in this specific business. I agree with your logic but its only semi right with respect to the trend, respectively . Right now there are already two ways that Ford is subsidizing your Bronco Sport purchase with - Special Financing and the $500. As you were saying though, Ford does tend to reserve the extra incentives for certain models but not only/because they are hot sellers, Its usually because of how limited production is. Right now, you are able to get a PCO such as military or recent college grad or first responder on an F-150 sans the limited production raptor for example. Also avail on Superduty, even though they spend an avg of less than 10 days on a lot. With respect to the BS , Ford is likely to sweeten incentives as the dealer stock fatten up. As we know Its all Up to Ford after all, but I would keep an eye out for the next two incentive roll outs - the soonist being the end of this month as you probably well know for changes.
My build date is May 10 so maybe I’ll get lucky. It’s my husband’s discount but that’s ok, I’ll let him be a co-owner. ?
Will you let him drive it?
Lol. Good question. We don’t usually drive each others cars. I keep mine nice and clean and he’s a piggy. But I’ll let him use it depending where he goes. He’ll have specific parking instructions though. No door dings.
How did you guys determine that these discounts won’t be honored?Not that it compares to being a first responder or military, but they are not honoring the Ford College Student Purchase Incentive Program for Bronco Sports either
The dealers around here aren't honoring the X Plan pricing (even though I found on a Ford site that they are) and also that the 0% on 48 months isn't applicable to the BS (even though I found something contradicting this). Others in the BS forum and a BS FB page have received the X plan pricing. This is so irritating to me. First vehicle we've ever ordered and so far the experience leaves alot to be desired.Not that it compares to being a first responder or military, but they are not honoring the Ford College Student Purchase Incentive Program for Bronco Sports either
That’s terrible. The financing doesn’t effect the dealer, that’s ford’s offer.
I thought all of these incentives are from FORD, not the dealership? The dealer has nothing to do with what Ford Credit incentives are available -- they sometimes have incorrect information. The current offers on the Sport include $500 rebate AND 0% up to 48 months, 0.9 for 60 and so on.
That's exactly what I saw. 2 dealers have told me this now, including the one where my order was placed. I am not happy but I really want this vehicle. I am constantly looking at other dealerships, even in other states. I'm going to keep pushing this and if I have to contact Ford, I will.
