So my question is:@Ford Motor Company
An opinion, offering, option on this would be GREATLY appreciated.
You have THOUSANDS of prospective customers that are concerned about this. $7,500 is more than 10% of the MSRP purchase price of a Mustang Mach-E. We/They are worried that we/they may not be able to afford their Ford product if the purchase price suddenly increases 10-15% without this tax credit.
With Ford cutting off all 2022 model year orders early in the year, on April 15, and thousands of those orders potentially not being delivered in the 7.5 months between April 15, 2022 and December 31, 2022, this is a SIGNIFICANT concern. Many of these orders were placed with statements from dealers or Ford content stating a 5-6 month delivery intent.
- Is the “Binding Contract” clause an option that will allow your prospective customers to retain the $7,500 tax credit that they certainly considered (and counted on) when placing orders for your product(s)?
- Are orders placed online “Binding Contracts” according to this clause? If not, will Ford offer an option that WILL make these orders qualify for this clause?
- Are orders at Ford dealerships “Binding Contracts” according to this clause? If yes, what should we ask for as proof of this? If not, will Ford offer an option that WILL make these orders qualify for this clause?
Note: I asked “will” @Ford Motor Company offer an option. I did not ask “can”. If they can, but won’t, “can” is a useless question.
Will I be able to take the old $7500 credit if the MME is delivered by end of 2022 if my online order for the 2022 MME is from April ?
