Whats the hold back on the mache?

Now that's a good question.

This is from my invoice. Premium 4X +$400 Rapid Red + $240 Interior Protection. If you do plan pricing the dealer is supposed to show you the invoice and it has the plan pricing right on the bottom.

There is no holdback...we are paid in an advertising fund as long as we are compliant

If this is an inappropriate question please forgive me and simply ignore it: how do you and your fellow dealership employees feel about electrification and its implied impact on your revenue, particularly service revenue?

I'm not asking to get inside dirt; I am genuinely concerned that Ford is disincentivizing dealerships with respect to fully electric cars. I honestly believe that BEVs are absolutely necessary, but Ford seems to be squeezing dealerships even further with the Mach-E - which is exactly the opposite of what they should do.

Newby question here. What does it take to invoke X Plan pricing? Is that a conversation with my dealer? Is there somewhere you opt-in to that pricing? Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere.

You can join Mustang Club of America and receive Xplan PIN. There is also a list of Corporations who's employees receive Xplan pricing.

If you hold at least 100 shares of Ford stock in your name, you will also qualify. I believe you must have owned it for at least a year - not sure the exact time, but there is a minimum.

Before you place a reservation with a dealer, ask if they will honor xplan...if they wont, contact the next dealer and keep going until you find one

If you back out the 275, you have 55311.2. 55311.2 is 98% of 56,440. So it looks like they are taking 2% off the destination as well.

Here is a site listing hundreds of companies who are "partners". If you work for one of them, you should be able to get info from HR on how to generate the X-Plan PIN to use at a dealer who commits to selling the car at X-Plan pricing.
No idea whether this list is accurate/comprehensive, but my employer is listed and I was able to get the required info via my company benefits site.

The sales may go down, but the expense may follow...at a domestic dealer, paying "A" or "B" techs $25+/hour, plus the filter, plus the oil, $39.95 and under oil changes are a loss...we also have lost productivity hours on just oil changes with the tech getting the car from a parking space, waiting for parts (oil/filter), parking it back...we would be better served to have them handling warranty work for customers...and that's just the tip of the iceberg...

We will just need to adapt...concentrate on our employees and customers...the manufacturer will do what they need to do...we have adapted for years with changes

Hi everyone! I have scrolled thru the last 2 weeks of threads and couldn't find any input from any dealers...if the forum is looking for a supportive dealer, please let me know...

My name is Tom & im an active member over at the Bronco6g forum...one of the members there, said he was a member here, so I figured I would offer my help...

If any members are looking for A/Z/X plan pricing...just DM me your build, and Ill send back a copy of the Ford DORA (dealer order receipt acknowledgement) showing those pricing plans...

Also, anyone is welcome to include me in any Ford or dealer questions and ill get the answer for you...

Im sure the Ford Ad Covenant has been discusses previously here, so I can only cite an offer once a member has engaged in one-on-one negotiations directly with the me via phone, e-mail, or other direct communications...feel free to DM me anytime and we can start a conversion...

If this has been already brought up in the forum, i apologize...thank you!

Very good to have you here.

As a recent order (accepted by my dealer o the 4th) do you have any insight into the length of time it will take Ford to schedule new orders for production? I am my dealerships first MachE order so they seem to be a bit in the dark.
