Has anyone used Ford Flex Buy for their MME ?

2022 MME for the wife on order from April 2022 but probably won't see it till end of the year. No movement - no build date - just order confirmation.

I wanted to know more about Ford Flex Buy (other than Ford Options or standard financing) and what advantages it may have.

Another strong reason to ask is because the Ford Lightning F150 are being delivered starting today to customers:
https://www.f150lightningforum.com/...ghtning-delivery-to-retail-customer-me.10488/

The first Lightning buyer said there were no incentives for using Ford Options so he opted to use his own bank's financing.

And now I got alerted that my 2022 F150 is being scheduled for production next month (6/13/22).

I'd like to know if the Flex Buy is an option worth asking about...

Here are my 2 EVs on order:

I personally don't know why anyone would do a FlexBuy. But here you go.

pointless, especially since you live in an area with the 2k/2.5k options incentive

Don't you not get the full fed rebate with this? Definitely do Ford Options or traditional financing if you don't want the turn in capability of Options and there are no Options rebates for either car. If not options, you can probably get better financing with your bank or a credit union than what Ford has been offering.

Yes, we are eligible for $7500 tax credit each of us (my F150L and her MME).

Plus we are eligible for state & utility rebates around $5000.

The question I posed was without incentives on the F150L would the Flex Buy be advantageous over traditional financing ?

I am looking at flipping my F150L in a year and didn't want a huge outlay for down payment or cap cost reduction as I really wanted a lower trim (XLT).

What would be the best finance route to take if I wanted the least initial outlay ?

Other than leasing which is advantageous not to pay for the full sales tax - which is best for lower payments?
