Anyone Get 0%-36mo Financing AND the Farm Bureau $500 Discount?

[M-C Maverick]

Anyone with an order date of last year and delivery date this year get both of these? I’m trying to get my expectations set before going into the dealer to sign in the next week.

Not yet, hoping for delivery next week from late June order. I have Ford price protection documentation and 2021 Farm Bureau certificate.

I got 0% for 36 months today. But I don't have the farm bureau. fordvideoguy told me to show this picture to the dealer and it worked. Hope you have good luck.

I wanted to confirm that I did get the incentive financing (I chose 0.9% for 48-months AND used the $500 Farm Bureau cash incentive. Note, the $500 Farm Bureau counts as cash for your down payment and isn't a discount on the price so you still pay sales tax on that $500 in pricing.

I brought $13,200 cashier's check + $500 initial reservation + $500 Farm Bureau cash for a total down payment of $14,200 and financed the remaining $14,169 at 0.9% for 48 months.

It's a manufacturer rebate, so it follows the applicable sales tax laws in your state. Some states may make it non-taxable. Can be passed through the dealer and either applied to the purchase of the vehicle or provided to the consumer.

No. My dealer had me sign forms for the 0% Financing for 36 months And the Farm Bureau $500 Rebate, and said Ford would send the $500 check. My salesman even mentioned he hadn't seen 2 rebates on a new vehicle before. I ordered July 14th and bought the truck March 30th.

Called last week and was told Ford is denying the Farm Bureau rebate as it is not compatible with the 0% Financing from last year? I talked to the GM who said he would call the Ford Rep. I haven't heard back. I plan on telling them that they need to write the $500 check if Ford won't as it was part of the Deal I signed for the Truck. Not getting my hopes up, but will follow up.

Update on my particular situation.

I joined the Farm Bureau in January of this year before I purchased my Maverick.
I got the price protected MSRP from when I ordered last year 7/14/2021.

I am being told that I can't get the Price protected MSRP and use the Farm Bureau certificate that was issued this year. Even Tim on the forum confirmed this. I am not sure why that matters. So if your getting Price protected MSRP from last year, you have to have been a Farm Bureau Member Last year. Not sure if you had to be a member Before you ordered or not.

I got the protected price, financing and farm bureau rebate from my original June 2021 order. Thanks to Ford Video Guy, Tim Bartz.

If you choose the protection date your need to have a farm bureau membership at least 30 days prior to that date. If you choose the sale date the membership needs to be at least 30 consecutive days prior to purchase, lease or take delivery date.

Here's the fine print on additional offer 3 of 4:

Ask the dealer to put claim number 38326 in the SmartVINCENT to see the details.

Right. It says be a member 30 days prior to Purchase. Which I was.

Why does getting the Price available at order date affect using the Farm Bureau rebate when purchasing?

Last month, I used my 2021 farm bureau certificate which expired on 1/3/2022 on my June 2021 order but did not get the certificate until August 2021. So my dealer accepted it without any issues. I guess it depends on your dealer for protected date and incentives.

I got the Farm Bureau rebate this past Thursday. I had the certificate but my dealership just made a copy of my Farm Bureau membership card. Very inconsistent

Well, I got the $500 check from Ford today for the Farm Bureau Incentive. Nice Surprise as I assumed I wouldn't since I wasn't a member last year.

Got a call (and text) from my dealership yesterday asking me for my Farm Bureau rebate certificate code again, more than a month after I took possession of my Mav.
They didn't state why they needed it again, but I have a feeling it did not work and they are going to ask me to pay back the $500... It's already in my signed contract, so no matter what I'm going to refuse to pay them anything or update my contract.
