Must have missed that in the 227 pages of this thread, I tried searching for price protection but didn't see anything specific to this situation.

When I asked for one showing the x plan price, that's when he sent me the "Keep in mind pricing is subjected to change based on cost of parts. Will have a definite price once the truck gets in." statement. Yeah, you have price protection. You will also know the MSRP once your window sticker gets printed. Take a screenshot of that for your record and a copy of the letter on this thread guaranteeing price increases don't effect old orders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, I printed copies of the letter so I have it handy when the truck gets built and delivered. This waiting thing is hard, I know many have waited much longer and I hope they get scheduled soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muggerzh Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Does Ford update incentives every month? Any changes on that front in February? I think January had zero interest for 150s but nothing for 250s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just kept checking the tracking site and it finally changed today. How are you able to check the tracker? I got one email saying that my order was received but nothing else. The tracker is asking for a order number. There was not one in the email. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems there are way too many dealers out there that are pleading ignorance when it comes to the price protection. It's going to be interesting to see what my dealer does when it comes time to do the paperwork. So far they have been pretty straight up with me and haven't mentioned any MSRP price increase from back in December, so I'm hoping for the best. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to my previous “order” (not confident it was ever actually properly ordered) being effed up, I may have pissed him off after he spent too much time trying to locate an order that didn’t exist. So after two months I decided to take my business elsewhere and place a new order. I just want to make sure it’s properly ordered as unscheduled- clean. As long as you are getting updates from Ford, I wouldn't bother cyberdman until at least the time your truck is scheduled for production and you have received your VIN. After that, then you know things are getting serious. But perhaps he may forgive you and let you bug him again if you send him a box of cookies 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the communications I've had with the dealer I'm guessing it will be an issue when the time comes but thanks to all you guys, others who have posted helpful info/advice, and this great forum I should be able to put up a good defense.

Beefmaster Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 22 hours ago, Rcpd34 said: If I were you, I'd not cancel. Drive your Chevy until it comes in. Don't think for a minute that your dealer cancelled the order; they will still take delivery and sell it on the lot for well over MSRP. At this point it's the principle of it. My order is bumped by orders placed months after it was placed. I know it's a business decision but so is me not buying a Ford. And to be honest, I was nervous buying a truck I could not test drive. So, I'm going to predict in two years the truck market will be near where it was in 2018-19 and that dealer lots will be full, and prices low compared to today. I will add a flatbed to whatever I buy, so I'm kicking around the idea of finding a buildable wreck with rear end/bed damage at a discount.

typski Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 From our dealer on notification that our truck was built and waiting for shipment info: "I’ll provide an updated quote once I get that information." I hope he doesn't think he's changing the price. We ordered late September and haven't changed anything (which wouldn't matter anyway from what I understand.) I have the order build sheet with the Xplan price, so I'm holding them to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beefmaster Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 21 hours ago, Rangers09 said: It's unfortunate your truck didn't get scheduled. Not sure about 1/2, as I got exactly what I paid for a 2016 from 6 yrs ago. Dealer also has a used 2020 F-450 on the lot for more than it cost new. The prices you mention are why I was ordering new and selling my 2001 Chevy for more than I paid for it. With the fleet discount I would save a lot. But the longer it takes and the more I read on this group I'm betting my truck will never be built because it is a cheap fleet order. So, 1/2 price is a little low, but I do think the truck market will return to pre-covid conditions in two years or so. With new brakes and some steering components my old Chevy will last till then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After you've made 15 posts to the BOF site, you can request tracking at the Vehicle Locator by Ford Employees forum by providing your Order Number and Dealer Code. Read the rules prior to posting your request as the rules are strictly enforced. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
