Cash Back?

Is this only for on-the-lot cars or can it be applied to factory-ordered
cars? If factory-ordered does it apply to when the car is ordered or
delivered (with th chance that the cash back has been revoked)?

TIA,
Dan

Usually, to get the cash, you have to take delivery by a certain date. Go
the automaker's website and read about the cash back details there or ask
the dealer. If you ask the dealer, and you decide to buy, make sure you get
the details in writing, and read the details (in case the sales person
accidently leaves out important information).

Actually, you need to have a signed order by a certain date. That's how
it's been for the last 2 I did. Both of mine were factory orders, which
are cheaper than picking something that's been on the lot for more than a
few days - plus you get the cash back.

Depends on the auto maker. For Ford, you have to take delivery.

That is why the text which you deleted (without indicating that deleted it--
which is a no-no in my book) about getting and reading the fine print is so
important.

Generally it applies to in stock vehicles, or those abstained by
one dealer from another. Retail orders ARE included IF delivered
before the rebate period expires.

Then someone should tell the 2 different FORD dealers I bought through,
because I did it. Twice.

Ordered. Not delivered. Been there, done that.

You should write to the Ford webmaster. The website clearly states take
delivery.

Depends on the details of the plan. Ford specifies delivered. Other auto
makers specify ordered. Read the fine print.
