This looks like the most secure option so far to prevent ADM/DAO that was not disclosed at order. If you use Ford credit then pay if off the next day, how much are you out? Closing fees? Interest for a day?
Never used Ford Credit before but with Audi, Chrysler etc, it took weeks for the account to be active so you couldn’t actually pay it off till then. So you are probably looking at a few weeks of interest at least. There is no prepayment penalty.
Sounds like they have to opt in for it, but knowing dealers one person will sign up and nobody else will know anything about it.
It didn't appear until it was delivered. It's actually how I found it was delivered. I went to check my status and saw that. Then checked United Road and saw they delivered the truck like 90 minutes prior.
Thanks for the info. Can you elaborate on the price difference?
No problem. I was initially reserved at another dealership, however when asked about an ADM they completely ignored the question. So I called another dealer and offered to transfer my reservation if they agreed to sell at MSRP. They agreed several times and agreed to prioritize my order. When it came time to order there was a $2,500 ADM on the page. Of course, pissed I called the dealership who again said they'd sell to me at MSRP. My guess is they plan on adding it to their other orders. So I was told to ignore it. At this point I had several emails saying MSRP. So figured I was fine. They also wanted $1,500 down vs. the $500 Ford asks for when placing the order. A few days after placing the order I went in to pay the additional $1,000 at this time I signed some paper with a break down of the price. I don't know what this paper is called but it's a legal document that I've gotten every time I've bought a car.
