Ford Options...Ugh

[tomking29]

So my dealer just called me and said that Ford Options (which he is calling Ford Flex Buy) is showing 4.9% as the rate. I even sent him a screen grab from Ford.com that is showing it as 2.25%. Does anyone have any links that they could share that shows any more information on the Ford Options plan? Apparently I need help the finance manager out.


Thanks!!

Mine told me 0.9% ?‍ Now I have doubts.

That‘s the rate for regular financing.

You should have doubts. That's not an Options rate.

All the paperwork has been signed and I'm on my way to the dealership now!! Thanks again @hybrid2bev!!! ?

Did you get the 2.25% APR? Another member ran into the same issue of the higher rate so I suspect it's something confusing on the Ford side.

Yep! After all said and done, the rate for 36 month options was 2.25%.

I’ve got a Blockbuster card?! My reward is seeing photos of Mach-Es at their new homes.

Would love to post pictures but it has to leave Mexico and show up here first. It must be like me and can't walk away from the chips and salsa bar.

We're waiting for the live stream...

Glad it worked out for you. Just in time for the weekend so you can read the manual between replays!

Or photos of signed Ford Credit contracts perhaps?

The finance manager has called and everything has been figured out!!! Thank you again @hybrid2bev! I asked the finance manager if someone from Ford Credit contacted him and he said no but I'm not sure if I believe him.

So I'm in the process of signing all of the paperwork via email and will hopefully have the vehicle yet tonight!!

AMAZING! Looking fwd to pics today! Glad it was "figured out" finally

Where is the Xpel place? I'm supposed to get my car between Feb 28th and Mar 6th so maybe I can help?

Just visited my friendly neighborhood Xpel installer this morning. Based on my initial query, they just talked to the Xpel mother ship and expect the MME template to be scanned in and available on 2/16.

Xpel guys seem to be just as excited as I am about the car......

I finally decided to buy the MME rather than options. Trading my car in for 12,500, plus the 7500 fed and still hoping for $5K from NJ. Not sure how options would work with all that upfront money. Plus, I can't plan my milage. Pre-covid I was 23K a year. Not sure how much I will be able to stay home, no days, maybe once a week, twice? But, now Ford drops this Google bombshell and I don't know why they can't say they will support the MME with it. Just saying we will support apple car play doesn't cut it. I have been driving with an outdated operating system for many years, and I was looking forward to a modern and upgradable system. Is there anyway to make options work with my situation? Car coming in 2 ½ weeks.

Options will lower the price of the car by any incentives, and you can still get the tax break. That has been discussed several times now.

Thanks!!

I am in UK and it shows 4.9% on Ford Options also. After credit check somehow I get the feeling it will be even more, even I have an excellent credit score. I am wondering if we can negotiate the car price with the dealer or something to haggle about. It's my 1st finance on a car to be honest and I really don't know how it works. I would love to hear other opinions about this. Thank you

Congrats on getting it done. Wish we had access to the options here in Nevada.
