MikeyD -- Your hunch was correct; your vehicle takes the DB5Z-8C607-B . As stated earlier, there is no listed stock of this number in the nation (PDC / FAD / dealer).
-
Two application choices (would need last 8 of VIN to get specific part #): DB5Z-8C607-A or DB5Z-8C607-B . Both are on national backorder due to "late engineering change". DB5Z-8C607-A estimated off backorder on 5/28/2014. There is no listed inventory of either number at the part distribution centers (PDC). There is listed stock of the DB5Z-8C607-A at 44 locations nationwide including one each at factory authorized distributors (FAD) in Sacramento and San Jose.

Based on correspondence with our sales rep, Ford does issue OKTB / OKTS even on simple model year changes.

Steveottawa -- Job 1 is scheduled for 6/3/2013 so I would guess late June or early July if all goes smoothly.
-
The dealership should be able to cancel any order which is not locked in / scheduled.

Just stirring the pot Nick for the Mustang fanatics and Ford marketing wizards.

The 2015 model year, however, will be the 51st model. If Ford follows past convention, the 2014 model year should have an anniversary edition (ie, the 1999 model year was the 35th anniversary edition).

Is Ford offering a 50th anniversary edition of the 2014 model year Mustang?

In another thread, you asked about incentives. Your dealer can lock in most current incentives and subvened rates via program #34220. They will need screen prints of the DORA and current Smart VINCENT. Ruby Red looks great on the Taurus.

Retail orders are price protected to the price level in effect on the date of order. Price protection is automatic and the only requirement is that the sales reporting name must match the order name exactly. The majority of rebates are now also locked in at the time of order. We only ask for a deposit on units which would be extremely hard to sell if the deal falls through.

The software update for the Escape was issued overnight Thursday 12/13/2012 and should now be available to dealers (SAFETY RECALL 12S41 Supplement #2). The software update for the Fusion is expected the week of 12/17/2012. Affected vehicles under 12S41 do not include any post 11/26/2012 Escape or post 11/29/2012 Fusion. This could definately change as Ford has expanded vehicle coverage under several campaigns in the past.

If you are looking at a 2013, Smart VINCENT shows a total of $2500 if you finance through FMCC: #12150 Retail Customer Cash $2000 and #12152 Ford Credit Retail Bonus Customer Cash $500. I used a Baltimore zip 21201. 2012's show a total of $3500. Do not know why the plan site would differ from the dealership.

silvrsvt -- The current incentive protection plan (program #33838) expires 01/02/2013. I would think that a new program would be announced late December 2012 but nothing is certain (as evidenced by the reduction in the commercial upfit program). All dealers are now able to claim incentive protection and most incentives and discounted rates are protected. Unprotected programs include FDAF, employee pricing, non-cash programs (gas cards / SIRIUS promos / etc), ESP promos, early bird and discount packages.

In the past, Ford has sold new hail-damaged units at their dealer-restricted auction locations. They sold new hail-damaged 2011 Explorers (unrepaired) and got more than we were retailing an undamaged unit for. Sometimes the units are repaired via paintless dent removal. Full disclosure is made in the auction program and also by the ring auctioneer. The windshields also clearly state that the unit was hail-damaged. In the "old" days, dealers were invoiced and considered the owner as soon as the unit was gate-released; currently, we are not considered the owner until the date of actual delivery. Also, I believe Ford was self-insured with regards to in-transit and storage vehicle damage.

As you suggested, it is up on the Ford Social page: http://social.ford.c...31m3n0p20110119I'm kind of hoping Ford posts something on their website. I don't think they'd do it in the same way as Apple did with Steve Jobs but maybe on one of the social pages or the Mustang Cobra page or something.

NLPRacing -- My family has a very small Ford dealership in SE South Dakota. I lived in the Twin Cities for a number of years including 4 in St Paul (Summit Ave/Chatsworth St for 2 years and then Grand Ave/Dale St for the next 2 years). Tousley is the largest Ford dealer in the Twin Cities region and is now an AutoNation store. The Vikings should simply concede this season and claim the Andrew Luck sweepstakes and rebuild around him (maybe he will turn out to be as good as Rodgers or Stafford). Don't get me started on the Twins or Timberwolves.

That is correct; you'll simply need to provide your dealer with the PIN and the last 4 digits of your social security number so they can validate and lock in the PIN. Enjoy your new 2012 F150; our dealership is located in the upper Midwest (Twin Cities region) and interest in the 2011/2012 F150's has been great.

Your dealer simply needs to know which X-Plan program you qualify under and receive proof of eligibility:

Any one of the following: a pay stub, company ID badge, healthcare card or W-2, print out from www.theworknumber.com or a valid member card (30-day membership requirement for EAA members). Household - driver's license as verification of the same household as the sponsor, plus proof of sponsor employment or membership as noted above.

(2) Friends & Neighbors - no proof of eligibility required. Business - Proof of Business Ownership as noted below.

Okay, this may be a thread to ask this question I've been wanting to for the last few weeks but didn't want to start an allocated thread.
Can anybody direct me to where I can find a double-sided Ford Blue Oval flag for my home flag pole? I've scoured the net but to no avail. I can find one that says "Ford Racing" but I really just want the old Blue Oval on White in a 3X5.
Thanks for any pointers.
Gregg
The following company makes vertical single and double-sided Ford flags for dealerships and also makes custom horizontal flags. Since they have the Ford blue oval perhaps they can custom make a double-sided horizontal flag for your home use.

Free BBQ, cold sodas and 2012 Explorers. That is one special Ford dealership.

Received some more info from Ford on the availability of the active grille shutters:
AGS is not a feature or free-standing option. Later this year, Active Grille Shutter will be standard across the board on Focus, however it must ramp-up to that level first. Currently, AGS is included in conjunction with the models, series, and/or features below:
* All SE 4 door models
* All Titanium 4 & 5 door models
* All models with "Green State" Emissions
* All models with the optional Winter Package (available SE, SEL, Titanium)
* All models equipped with the optional Engine Block Heater
