If you are a veteran, you could sign up for Veterans Advantage, have the membership for at least 90 days and be eligible for X pricing from Ford. Although pricing turns out to be just above invoice cost, one of the biggest advantages is that X pricing limits document fees to $100 . . . and they vary vastly.
Yup, a lot of options can be put on after you receive your Maverick. You may decide you don’t want them anyway. Only option I am getting on my XL hybrid is a drop in bedliner.
Just make sure to order the Tow Hitch Receiver weather or not you plan to tow anything or not for a $100.00 it's a no Brainer, If not and you change your mind later it will cost you more like $800.00 to get one installed after the fact
If I had mine to do over, I would work it up online again but take the spec sheet to three dealers before picking the dealer to deliver to. I would get my best price in writing - or no deal. No BS like I had to through with "well it depends on that the incentives are when it arrives...yada, yada". Keep checking the FORD site or this forum and you will see when the '23's are ready to be ordered. One thing that I have learned from this 11 month ordeal (and counting) is 'Trust but Verify'.
Some folks asked if they could get a "10" Priority Code. Our dealership automatically had us a a 10, but I understand the number could go up to 19. (Our Maverick took 4 1/2 months from order to delivery.) I really don't know if the code is a factor or not, but why not ask?
Doesn't really matter unless the dealer actively uses it. From what I gather, most dealers just set everyone to 10, which means all of their buyers are equally prioritized. The same would happen if they set everyone to 19. It only matters if they actually set buyers at different values. If you do ask, I'm sure they'll set it to 10 for you, but it won't likely matter a whole lot.
