You can just apply yourself. The Feb change didn't remove the Mach-E, they lowered income limits (so you might not qualify anymore), but the MME still qualifies.

CVRP only cares about the base model (the Select).
It was the income limits that did it. Yeah, I know, that means I'm still doing OK so 1st world problems.

Your dealer lied to you. Or was unwilling to call Ford and get guidance on how to provide price protection. My dealer was able to figure it out. I was ready to lose X-plan and keep price protection if they couldnā€™t figure out how to stack them.

You have my sympathies about losing the CVRP rebate. I also missed out on the CVRP for similar reasons. I think I wouldā€™ve been excluded no matter what because I wanted carpool stickers and thereā€™s an income threshold that applies to that as well. I donā€™t know if they are the same.

One thing my dealer initially forgot to do was include the Clean Fuel Vehicle Point of Sale rebate. I noticed it after we got the car home. Once I pointed it out to them, they redid the contract and included the rebate and my financed amount went down.
More unwilling than lying. I was admittedly worn down at that point. Thus decided later to take it up with Ford. We'll see if anything happens.

Income threshold on the HOV stickers applies for renewal (after 3 full calendar years) but not for first issue.

Yeah, that's fine then. Bottom line is the dealer doesn't care about the CVRP, they're not involved at all. In CA, 200k for dual income folks isn't that much relative to the rest of the world when the median home is 1 mil already in some parts (San Diego).

As for the sticker, I'll probably not even bother anymore since I don't commute much to that part and I hear it's all going away in 2025? or was it 2024?

There's no renewal on carpool stickers. 3 years (plus the year in which you applied/were issued the sticker) and you are done for that car.

Emphasis: it was more positive than negative. Dealer held to no dealer markup on customer order, they honored X-Plan, they found financing for me that was better than what I found on my own (48 months at 1.99% from San Diego County Credit Union vs. 2.74% at my credit union) AND they keep customer order vehicles unavailable for test driving before the original customer has an opportunity to complete the purchase.. Also, I think that the price difference would have been pushed back to Ford. If true, dealer gets same amount either way. Fullerton Ford of Orange County (formerly McCoy Mills Ford), in Fullerton, CA.
guess a good mix on it, but I wouldn't be happy if price protection wasn't honor when they would get a kick back from it. That just means they came up 2k.

My dealer is doing the same thing. He said he will honor x-plan and $750 off but won't honor price protection. He said that there's no guarantee that they will get the $2000 back. That's fine. I will, however, leave them bad feedback when the time comes.

take that back. No sooner did I post this that me dealer called me back and said that I get price protection. For those of you not getting it, itā€™s listed in the x-plan that price protection is included.

Ordered 8-6-2021
Delivered to dealer 5-9-2022
Papers signed ALL MINE 5-16-2022

Bill Colwell Ford was great to deal with. Paperwork was made difficult by Ford as they changed the order type when they converted it from a ā€˜21 to a ā€˜22. Sales manager, Jeff, and salesman, Jordan, worked everything out to my satisfaction. Honored X-Plan, price protection, $750 conversion credit, as well as retro finance rate. Couldnā€™t ask for more (suppose I could, butā€¦ā€¦ā€¦.)

Enjoy doing business with pleasant people!
