3-4 inquiries won't be an issue for you as inquiries don't have that much impact compared to delinquent or late payments.
I have A LOT of inquiries on my report because I am an active CC churner, yet my credit score is in the 830-835 range depending on the day. Inquiries have a fairly minimal impact on credit score. I doubt this is really going to effect someone with high debt/income ratio and a high credit score.

Tim, when I ordered, There were options for 0% for 3 years, or there was also an option for leasing. To you knowledge, is that still available? is that what this info is about?
sorry if this is a repeat question, dealer called and told me my April 18 is now May 9… bummed
This is a special finance approval incentive that allows you to get bumped up one tier and get a tier better rate if you are approved. It has nothing to do with the rates available when you order your vehicle. 0% for 36 months was available when you order your vehicle and as long as the dealer uses the protect date instead of the sale date you should get those rates.

I wish my dealer didn't screw up and actually looked into this for me.

Wow, can you tell me more about how many inquires you had and how it affected your tier? My credit rating is above 800, but I do have 3-4 hard inquires in the last couple years. I wonder what that will mean?
You should be fine. Credit inquiries fall off your report in something like 30 or 60 days.

Can the protected date interest rate of 0%/36 be combined with the farmers bureau $500 rebate?

I was thinking of getting a Ford credit card and use that for down payment to get some Pass Points. I wonder if that will work with this offer. I've got the cash for the dp, but figure I may as well get some "free" points.

My credit card churning days are coming to an end. After 28 credit cards in 6 years I’m burned out. I actively use 8-10 cards and average ~4.2 percent cash back. That doesn’t include the thousands in bonuses or the value in points.

Top cards in my wallet
Citi Double cash
Chase Freedom
Discover It
Wells Fargo Propel (discontinued)
Capitol One savor (grandfathered in without $95 fee)
Ford Visa
American Express Blue Cash everyday - specifically for the offers section.
US Bank Cash Plus
BOA Customized Cash Rewards

Credit score usually 820-830 out of 850 depending on where it’s pulled. Auto credit scores for me are usually 850 out of 900.

They have or had 0% for 36 months. If you can swing the larger payment, that's free money. I guess inflation might make that a less attractive offer if it continues past 3 years.

That is so awesome of Ford. Extending special rates on a vehicle you can’t get.
