Malouf Ford ? Wonder if they are related to former Rutgers Basketball player Janet Malouf?

Dashboard rattle at certain speeds, I'm busy rn will get it checked later this month. electric motor whining is noticeable when no music or AC, was told by the dealer it's normal. interior of XL, maybe even others can get dirty real fast. Damn that engine sounds like it's revving all the time it's on (except very low speeds). These are just negatives. The MPG is very sensitive to driving style, not forgiving (between 37-42 in mav display).

Overall it's amazing, the hybrid is great.

Other issues, accessories.ford.com is the worst, placed order 6 weeks back no email nothing, started multiple IT tickets with 5 days reported resolution but nothing. Insane how they are in business.


My dealer is Malouf Ford and the sales experience is 8/10, I give the last 1-2 points to going the extra mile. They did not try and sell anything extra like an extended warranty or paint protection, they did offer it. No market adjustment and received student rebate.

Dealer installed option and other items ford shipped to the dealer to be given with vehicle during delivery were forgotten, still fighting with them to get the tailgate lock installed that is dealer installed. The after-sales experience is 2/10, the tailgate lock is a big reason, they also will not install the keyless keypad which is a ford accessory. They sent me between sales, parts, and services to find what happened to my tailgate lock that should have been installed when the vehicle was delivered. None of them knew what that part is.

I’ve see we have quite a few NJ members on the forum.
I’m just outside of Philly in Riverton. Originally from Bergen County.

Where in NJ are you and do you think a future meet up would be fun?
I'm here in Columbus (Mansfield Twp.) NJ. I Ordered my Oxford White Hybrid XLT, with the lux pkg, moon roof, rear window, soft tonneau & bed mat from Lucas Ford on Aug. 3rd and have a scheduled build week of Jan 31. Ford has even given me the VIN number. This whole experience has been an exercise in patience so far..

Funny you say Ford Accessories is terrible. I agree. I ordered a Bed Extender, Soft Tonneau Roll Up and Tailgate Assist on 11-16-21 and still arguing with them over it. Numerous IT tickets. Crazy that we have to put up with this s!!t. Thank you for your facts about the Hybrid it has been very helpful.

I'm from Columbus!! Currently living by Toms River. Ordered at All American Ford in Pt. Pleasant. I have a build date of 1/31. I'm crossing my fingers they do not have any surprises up their sleeve.

I purchased my Lariat from them . Ordered on 6/16 and delivered 10/16. No markup, of course no discount either. They were a pleasure to deal with.

Fellow New Jerseyans, if you don’t know, you can get a $500 rebate from Ford by joining Farm Bureau for only $20. Every state has a Farm Bureau, but in New Jersey you have to pay $150 to become a full member. You can only get the $500 discount on Ford trucks if you are a full member and you have to be a farmer to be a full member. I joined the one in Illinois for only $ 20. You do not have to be an Illinois resident, a farmer, or own farmland. Phone number is 309-663-6497.
