Was your car an order or did you buy it off the lot? As of a few weeks ago they had close to 10 cars on the lot and I was wondering if they were charging ADM on those.
I ordered the car on the day of the reveal. My salesperson Bill told me that they are not charging ADM on their cars.

I talked to a lot of SoCal dealers and the best I found were

Ford of Montebello
Tuttle Click
South Bay Ford
Star For

north Hollywood tried ADM but called back the next day offering it without
Alhambra also pulled ADM but it went away after I had walked for a few days

But I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Montebello. Did everything via text. I went in to pick the car up on Wednesday and was in and out in 45 minutes with the only “upsell” being the maintenance program and that conversation lasted 40 seconds. Car was clean and fully charged. Took X-Plan and offered the full 4100 rebate (options, early adopter, clean fuel)

My MME Premium LR-RD is scheduled to arrive at Theodore Robins Ford in Costa Mesa on 5 Apr. This is my second EV (2013 Focus Electric in 2013) purchased from this dealer and highly recommend them. No ADM, and they accept X-Plan pricing.
One additional comment I'll make is that I initially contacted Huntington Beach Ford because they're within walking distance of my home. They wanted a steep ADM, wouldn't accept X-Plan pricing, and had very little knowledge of or apparent interest in the Mach-E despite having three on their lot. Unfortunately, this is a dealership to avoid.

I just saw this thread, I had a very good experience with Sean Butts at Sunrise Ford in North Hollywood. I can PM contact info if anyone would like. They took x-plan, no ADM (though mine was an order), and participate with the California $1,500 fuel reward program.

In case anyone else is looking:

Jason, Fiesta Ford in Indio. X-plan accepted. No ADM for Mache's that are ordered. My reservation was kicked over to an order very quickly.

I will note that the single Mach-e Premium they had on their lot they did have ADM. About $2K IIRC. However, salesperson said no ADM on my order.

The process, so far, has been painless. Allowed me to drive the vehicle for a short bit and was fairly knowledgeable of the vehicle and process.

Brandon Jacobson at Tuttle-Click Irvine has been great. X-Plan and no ADM on an ordered car. Might be some ADM and no X-Plan on a car on the lot that someone cancelled on.

Just had an amazing experience at Kearny Mesa Ford. Was able to drive away with a Premium EXT Range w/ AWD. They honored my X-Plan PIN and were just awesome to work with. Wesley was my guy but the entire sales staff there was super helpful.

I'll need to work with the dealership that I have the reservation with to get my initial deposit back. Production day is scheduled for 5/24.

I think I talked to them about this vehicle. It had $2600 in add ons, some security system and paint protection. Did it have that?

I did not have a good experience with Airport Maria Ford. They tried to upsell me on exterior and interior protection programs, and didn't initially offer the $1500 or $100 rebate. I eventually got it straightened out but it was a hassle. I bought mine in February so maybe they have gotten their act together now. If you do buy through them, be on you toes.

I test drove the Mach-E at Airport Marina- also in Feb. My gut feeling was to exit that dealer as quickly as possible, and so I did!

I highly recommend calling Rick at Theodore Robins Ford in Costa Mesa he was super helpful and there was no adm and they took plan pricing on a stock vehicle.

WARNING to those who are planning on buying a vehicle off a lot (either because it’s stock or someone cancelled) A LOT of dealers say they won’t accept plan pricing and/or they add ADM onto a vehicle that you aren’t custom ordering, so even if you see they take plan pricing/dont charge adm here or else where I highly suggest to call because a lot of the dealers change their tune when it’s a vehicle out of their stock…

I missed out on a vehicle here by 30 min, but because they don’t charge ADM, I went ahead and ordered one through them, so if they do get one in that I want and I get it, they have my order for a future sale.

Gah hope it wasn’t me! You’ll love it once it comes in though, totally worth the wait!
