Kind of what I thought - the Mach E seems weird because of the "Tesla Like" Pricing. I did come across this in the fine print of the rebate which I think clears it up (hopefully).
Importantly, it says "manufacturer's MSRP", not "dealer's".

do they have to add the "manufacturer" in front of MSRP?
Not if they're being accurate (since MSRP is a manufacturer construct, not a dealer one). But this is a government qualification document, so redundancy in the wording is more reassuring that they won't screw it up. :cool:

They really want to emphasize it... Manufacturer's Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price.

Also in the category of redundant redundancy is Table Mesa Drive in Boulder, CO.

Just had a horrible thought: I have a Select with tech package on order and want to change to Route 1. Does my dealer have to cancel the original order or can he just change the part number? I reserved November 23rd and don't want to go all the way to the back of the line
I would guess that you'll retain your reservation number and reservation timestamp. But it's really not something that anyone here can assure you.

If I only had the Premium order like I'd originally planned, and they'd never tempted me with Mach Drop, I'd be 100% thrilled at a $3000 savings right now. ?

But they did suck me into an FE with Mach Drop, and now we're psychologically sold on getting an MME in late December (presumably). So cancelling the FE and falling back to the Premium would definitely feel a bit defeatist at this point. Very mixed emotions on this. ?

Talked it over with my partner and he's like "What's the decision? Of course we're getting the FE sooner!". Which is probably what we'll do. I'm the money guy, looking at value and smart purchasing decisions, while he's the "Hell, we have plenty of money, just spend it!" guy. It's just hard for me to turn off that frugal gene.

So I'll just try to ignore that they jacked up the FE option price at the same time they made the Premium a better value. Why is buying a car always a "two steps forward, one step back" ordeal?
This could have been written by my partner. Nearly Identical situation.

I have gotten nothing from Ford in ages. Now 4 emails in 2 days. 2 about the price drop -almost the same exact info just in a different format. Makes me feel like I am a test dummy. One about Sync 4, and other tech and one about a virtual tour of the Mach E. What gives? We have been banging on Ford about not giving us any info, now a huge mail dump? Very weird. Are they panicking? Are they getting their act together? Are they learning from reading this forum? Pull it together Ford!

let me get this straight. You’ve been complaining for months about a lack of information. Now that you’re finally getting emails, you’re complaining again? Come on.

[me]: "CAN'T WE ALL JUST GET ALONG?"

[forum]: "NO!"

[me]: "okay never mind"
"me" must be new to the internet
