I don't know what your thinking. A n Z plan is below invoice they are employee and retiree discounts. In these situations Ford pays the dealership. That's the profit the dealership makes unless the sell aftermarket equipment (stripes, rust proof etc.), warranty, lah ha (credit insurance) and a fees from a bank if they send paper to them (finance).I'm pretty sure that 3% under invoice is always better than .4% under plus $275.
Also, the $500 discounts can tack on, too. It will cost me $20 to join the Nevada Farm bureau . . .
Now, the catch with Granger is that you either have to pick it up in Iowa, or have it shipped. But they meet you at the airport.
Majority of profit for a dealership is above invoice. There is money charged above A plan fin cost and withholding which then adds up to the invoice. If a dealership sells vehicles before I think 90 days they get the fin cost back at the end of the year for that vehicle. The withholding they only get that back if they meet Ford quotas for the year. These moneys are not guaranteed and are paid at the end of the year if these criteria are met. Unless they have changed things in 40 years and possibly they could have.
The 4 percent I referred to was above A or Z plant is X plan. The customer pays 4 percent Ford Motor Company pays the rest to the Dealership for profit. That's why in many cases Ford will not allow X plan with certain discounts or incentives they offer. They are already paying $$$ to offset the price for the consumer to get X plan.
