Total $1,000 off on X-Plan?
I just got word fom the E.R.L. that my vista blue automatic GT is locked in for production the week of 09-11-06 and will be delivered the week of 09-19-06. It was ordered on 07-25-06.Also,another dealer told me if it came in before 10-02-06 that I was elibible for the $500 dealer cash plus the $500 X-Plan Rebate,for a total of $1,000 off X-Plan price.Can anybody else on here verify this is true? Thanks.

Regarding the X-plan, I heard that the dealer is not allowed to add on Documenting Fees, etc. According to my quote they threw it on of course. I have an ETA of week of Sept 11th so when I go in there I'd like to have something in writing proving that.. Does anyone have a link to where Ford states this rule? Thanks

The dealership may also NOT charge separately for document preparation fees, vehicle preparation fees or any other administrative services incidental to the delivery of the vehicle.*These expenses are considered to be part of the dealer's normal cost of doing business for which the dealership is compensated by the commission paid.
* Each dealer is responsible for complying with applicable laws or regulations. Dealers may not charge different fees to participants in the New Vehicle Purchase Plans (AXZ-Plans).

11. Can I be charged a "document fee" (doc fee) by my dealer?
No. Fees for document preparation or similar administrative services are not allowed.* If the dealer charges you a documentary fee please call 1-800-348-7709 and report the issue.

The $500 X-plan cash is something the dealers only know about. You have to ask, or better yet, tell them you know about it. Otherwise they'll pocket the cash.
