Does anyone know why the military 500 dollar discount from Ford for veterans is not for all veterans only veterans that have left military in the last 24 months. Seams vary unfair

I got it on 23Jan24. They gave me the discount and I’ve been retired for 25 years. I didn’t even know it was offered. Talk to your salesperson. Ford believes you desrve it or they would not offer it. By the way, thank you for your service!!!

I retired in 1994. I got the $500 discount on 1-12-24. At first my sales man said something about leaving the military in the last 24 months. Then he called someone at Ford (sorry, not sure who) and then he called ID me. After the two calls he was able to apply the $500 discount.

I was denied, got out in 2001.
I used the Illinois Farm Bureau $500 rebate, though it did cost $20.

Ironically, I don't live in Illinois.
Very dumb policy.

Sorry to hear that. I think it should be all veterans. I hope Ford listens to this website

Ford is flaky when honoring the military incentive. They usually have the separation within 2 years and then sometimes they open it up for all veterans. Since placing my original order in 2022 it's only opened up for me two or three times.

Go online to Ford Military Recognition Program and it will direct you to iDme then answer a few questions and you should get a certificate number good til Jan 2025. Easy Peasy if you have the right answers. But it's scary just how much of your personal information is out there via the internet and what you tell Ford and iDme just adds a little more. :unsure:

Since it has been almost 1.5 years since getting our Mav, I will look back to see if I got a discount (returned from 1.5 years in Vietnam at the end of 1970). If not I MAY see if Ford will give me the 500 since we paid off the Mav at delivery.

Yup. It worked for me as well. I retired in 2014. $500.00 is $500.00. Better than a sharp stick in the eye. Yur sales manager (or Finance Manager) will apply it. The code is good from Jan through Dec.

I asked my salesman about the military discount. He didn't ask for any verification, just added $500 to my private offer.
