What is your estimated delivery date and where are you located?
Estimated delivery on the tracker has changed a few times over the past several weeks but it currently says 05/21/2023 - 06/03/2023. I am near Denver.
How do I prove this to my dealer?
I am going to private message you later. I would now, but am tied up at work
"retail price protection" Ford WILL reimburse the dealer on their dealer/parts statement in about 45 days after the sale. This price protection(reimbursement) is automatic to the dealer from FORD. The dealer should still honor original price and then wait for the reimbursement from FORD. Worst case they (dealership) mails you a check once they are reimbursed. But Ford is assuming the dealership is honoring original price, hence the auto reimbursement.
As an example…When you ordered your 23My the Price level was PL315 your current invoice has a PL345. That is the MSRP, $59,987 (PL315) and $66,650(pl345) The "invoice" amount is factored off of those numbers. The simple way of what a dealership pays FORD is Invoice -HB (hold back) So, in short yes, the Dealership will get reimbursed the difference between what they pay now and what they would have paid then.
I'm in more or less the exact same situation. Still showing "in production" but tear tag and modules populated on April 28th.
Yeah .. the Ford rep I spoke with yesterday was like, "You are still showing as built and waiting to be shipped. Estimated delivery window is .... uh .... well .... today through the 22nd. There may be a delay to that though." We both had a little laugh.
Ha that's a good one!
I used a rattle can of flat black. I set the screws in a cardboard box before spray painting. I will try to remember to snap some pictures and post when I get home.
