Thank you. Very helpful information and appreciated. Hopefully it wont be necessary but it always better to be prepared before going into any agreement.

Thank you! That's what a lot of dealers want, to take as much money as possible! My sale person charged me a 10% sale tax when my state is 6.625% if I wouldn't had looked at the paper more carefully they will had pocketed the extra money. I also realized they added extra charges that came out of nowhere.

It is unlawful to collect a tax that the retailer does not pay on the transaction. If that happens to anyone, request the money back. And if they refuse, take the evidence and report them to the state treasurer/revenue office.

Thank you for this. Now that my vehicle is finally in production I will be armed should anything go wrong when I go into my dealership when it comes time to do the deal. I appreciate all the guidance you have provided!

Who is your dealer? You should go back to them and ask for a refund and turn them into the state division of taxation if they fail to give you a refund. Don't accept this and let Ford know as well.

My dealer is Fette Ford. They changed it on the form but when they dod, they increased the price of the vehicle.

So the tax was correct based upon the price increase? Look up the Price protection guidelines that the @fordvideoguy has talked about and you should be protected and be required to pay the original agreed upon price.

I actually sent them the video about price protection that Tim made, but nothing. They "fixed" the tax to represent the 6.625% instead of the 10% but when they did this, they added the increase in price that the vehicle had after December.

I told my dealer my order was price protected along with 0% financing. He had no idea, made some calls and I got it.

Some MTC poster will have to walk their dealership employess through the process. I see too many threads of blissfully ignorant Ford employees putting one over on perceived naive customers. It's the customer's money and you either care about getting the agreed upon deal with no additional concessions or let them take as much money out of your pocket as possible.

Your dealer deserves an Emmy for that acting performance.

Does this only apply to order before January? Ordered mine 1/12/2022.
