Farm Bureau rebate combined with Ford Private offer.

[JoeTime]

I'm from Indiana but buying my Maverick in KY. I am a 22 to 23 rollover expecting my truck in March 23. I do have the $2750 Private offer certificate. I was thinking on signing up with Farm Bureau and getting the $500 rebate I heard about. I heard from some that Ford dealers would only allow the Private Offer or the Farm Bureau rebate, but not both. Is there anyone with experience with this situation?

"Hi YB98, did you ever get confirmation if the FB certificate can be combined with the Transition Private offer."

I can confirm that yes indeed, the Transition Private Offer and the Farm Bureau certificate can be combined. My dealership (Ruxer Ford, Jasper, IN) included both in my XLT ECO AWD purchase for a net $2250 off MSRP.

One caveat: If you are purchasing via A-X-Z plans, then you cannot have the Farm Bureau discount with those plans. Nothing should deter from the Private Offer, however.

Thanks. I'll go to FB and buy a membership.

Smart decision! I am also expecting my Maverick the first week of March and just purchased my $20 membership yesterday since you need to have the membership for 30 days before you can get the $500 certificate.

I just hope my dealer accepts it. I read that its ultimately up to the dealer. It's like a $32 gamble here in IN but the payoff would be worth it.

I just did the Illinois farm Bureau (bought membership) for 20$.. I signed up on 1/17
And it said membership started on 1/1
So I did the ford link in the Illinois farm Bureau website and asked for username and membership # but kept telling me it wasn't able to pull it up.... So it had a link to email the ford rep in charge of the program so I emailed them about not being able to access it.. And this was the response



Hello,

Per our records you have been a Farm Bureau member since 1/1/23.
The Farm Bureau Advantage requires customers to be a member for at least 1 month.
You will be able to access your Farm Bureau Advantage on 2/1/23



Keep in ming I singed up and paid on 1/17... So I'm assuming it rolls back to the start of the month u joined and can access it by the 1st of the next month then to be able to get what you need to bring to dealership for the $500
My Ford email says estimated time of delivery January 29th to February 4th. I'm assuming it'll be after the 4th so I'll be able to use it but knowing my luck before it's been late on everything and hopefully this is the one time it's early but as soon as my truck arrives at the dealership I'm having them get it sprayed in bed liner put in in the front driver and passenger windows tinted to match the back so if it does come on the 29th hopefully the bed liner and the window tint will push it back past February 1st for purchase so I can use the $500 I can get the X plan but my salesman said they won't do it for in-demand vehicles said that includes Maverick and bronco and he also said the F-350 I'm assuming because that one are so much more expensive but he said if I purchased any other Ford vehicle they would have allowed me to use it

Membership to Illinois farm Bureau has been growing with Maverick owners over the past year.

Not sure if it will work. I believe it has to be for the year you ordered the car. Since I'm assuming you ordered last year, I think you had to sign up last year even if it was December. You can try though.

I figured worst thing is I'm out 20$
I'd assume u have to be a active member to be able to use it.. And as tomorrow will be 1 year from my initial order on 1/22 . Then that would of forced to pay for another year.. That why I waited till it started production... I had a build week of 12/19 but got pushed emails twice one for 1/3 then to 1/9. But the truck says it started production on the 4th bit I think that was just getting into the lineup for week 1/9.. Got built email 1/12 and it's shipped out email on 1/14 and private offer didn't show up in system till some time after 1/14

It doesn't necessarily need to be the same year as the vehicle was ordered but that does mean it can't be combined with incentives that were available at time of ordering like protected finance rates. The rollover private offer technically is one such although as long as Ford keeps extending when it expires it should be combinable.

Closed my Hybrid Bob Thomas Ford Ft Wayne, IN. 1/20/23 Combined PO and 500 FB for a total of 3250. I paid the 32.00 in Indiana to support Indiana. Got the big C from my Doctor 1/19/23 wouldn't you know it

The Farm Bureau offer is a rebate. The dealer sends it in to Ford. Then Ford will send you a check for the $500. If does not come off the purchased price.

Incorrect. It is typically applied same as customer cash at time of sale.
