Both are rebates. Rebates/incentives/PCOs are usually claimed through the dealer and paid to the dealer, who passes it along to you at time of delivery. Meaning it gets applied to your OTD purchase/lease price.
Stay positive and drive it like you stole it .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
Mine was not, I received a check from Ford a few months later. The dealer said taking that off the price wasn't an option, as they had to submit it to Ford for it to be approved.
That's why I said typically. IIRC you joined in 2022 when you had ordered in 2021. So if you used 2021 financing rates it wouldn't have jived with the 2022 FB certificate in Smart Vincent.
You are correct on the 2021 financing rates and me joining the Farm Bureau in 2022. Luckily it was approved by Ford after they filed an exemption. Though I'm still not sure what financing rates had to do with me using an approved Farm Bureau rebate, other than the Smart Vincent system just not liking it.
Because preserving the financing rates requires selecting Smart Vincent benefits by order date. As that would then be before the 2022 Farm Bureau rebate started they wouldn't be compatible as far as Smart Vincent is concerned.
