Hmm, I would question what your dealer is telling you. Mine has already confirmed my price protection in writing and offered me the Ford Credit rates from 11/10/21 when I ordered. 36m 0%, 48m 0.9%, 60m 1.9% and 72m 3.9%. He called it my incentive protection rates.

You are right. My dealer was probably just trying to dupe me. I found this video that gave me a bunch of information about the price protection process, what I'm eligible for, and what to do:

Thanks.

Good to hear. That’s what this forum is for, to help each other out. Good luck!

Have you guys known the Ford Options rates and incentives for the protection date? I asked my dealer to send me the pages from smart Vincent by email, but he didn't. Not sure if I can get it before the car arrives at the dealer.

Your dealer has to give you that information since it depends on when you ordered and your region. You didn't mention either of those things here, so our help would be limited.

For us, in the Midwest region, ordered 11/11/2021, we were price protected for:

Options - 36 Months - 2.7% interest - $1000 rebate
Options - 48 Months - 2.7% Interest - $500 rebate (I think... maybe it was $1000 also, I forgot to write this one down)
Finance - 60 Months - 1.9% Interest - No Rebate

I have gone back and forth on what to do. The 60 months seems the best, as the almost 1% interest seems to eat up the rebate with options pretty quickly. Plus you don't have to worry about mileage at all. I know previously it was recommended to take options for the rebate then refinance, but good luck finding anyone financing a new car for 1.9% right now. My dealer looked up what we would be offered today for 60 months and it was 3.9% if I recall correctly. I looked at the common credit unions and banks that people recommend for auto finance, and the best I was finding was 2.74%.

Thank you for your reply.
I'm in WA, 98029. Ordered Select with tech/comfort on Feb 18, confirmed Feb 19.
Yes, I was also worried about this kind of situation, and may not make the right decision at the time of purchase.
Also I'm anxious about it, I hope my dealer will not play some kind of game, because the order waiting time is so long, I lost the leverage of walking away.

I didn't get the "order sheet" from the dealer, I hope the details listed on reservation at ford.com serves the same...

It is probably even MORE advantageous to the dealer for you to walk away. There are plenty of buyers willing to pay above MSRP not to wait on an order as long as we have.
