Ironically I used to be a paramedic 😋. But I was a Marine first and absolute honesty and cursing come before most everything else. Lol
Thank you and I hope you fare well. Given the situation with your dealer, it seems [prophetically] poison iv[y] would be something he deserves.

Did you sign the papers?

If you did, then "This bas#@$d" won.

This bas#@$d TACKED on a “tire warranty for 399$ a theft protection program” for 300$ and used a credit union rebate to pay for it and called it FREE!

I got price protection with them not knowing about it. I informed the dealer that my July price was protected and they claimed they didn't mark anything up. I said "I know you didn't mark it up, Ford raised MSRP in December, the price I ordered on is several hundered cheaper". They checked with Ford and came back with the old MSRP I didn't even have to get my signed purchase agreement out of the car, that was the end of it, we moved on to the financing. To be honest this is the least fucked I've ever felt after a vehicle purchase. I will only be ordering vehicles from now on.

Trying to purchase my special order. From November. Should be price protected per ford memo. They are making me pay the price increase from December.
After you placed your Maverick order in November, did you contact your dealer and make any changes to your order ? If you made changes you would only be price protected from the date of edit, not the initial order.

Notice to dealerships said protection was automatic. They already have the money/never paid it to ford. They're playing dumb to try and steal from their customers.

I'm hoping I won't need these but added them to my contacts on my iPhone. Now all I need is for my truck to get built.

Print out the memo Ford sent to the dealers about the price protection and when sitting down to sign the papers show it to them.

Some dealers are real SCUM BAG A-HOLES, we as consumers need to report these SCUM BAGS to ford, If Ford gets enough complaints then maybe they will do somethimg about these SCUM BAGS

I told them we were gonna just let the 110$ roll off us because In the larger scheme that’s not a lot and my son needed a truck before prom and he’s been patient for 7 months waiting. Didn’t have the heart to turn it down over measly amount. But he got belligerent when I asked him to help me figure out why he didn’t know how to do price protection. Less than two minute conversation and we were told to leave. I begged him to sit down and talk to my husband while I left. Funnily enough, later after school was out our son said he wishes we would have told him to stick it too. But they then would have earned even more since they could have resold it for more if we refused it. I politely pointed out that he couldn’t sell it to anyone else if we didn’t turn it down. He yelled that he’d rather it rot on his lot than sell it to us. At which point he tried to leave the room and take his toys with him like the toddler he was.

Y’all I’m gonna call the bank and ask if the interest rate that the sales manager and gm told me was a personal gift is actually the rate on the dang bank website, hint it is. Gotta call and confirm. I will record the conversation and maybe even post it on here. 😁

There was a specific cutoff noted in the communications. Did you actually fall outside that cutoff?
