Another Question for Dealers
Would be great to get an answer from the dealers we have here (Jeff, Brian, KC, Paul, etc).
I got my deal on my 5.0 for Invoice (w/holdback). Now, it occurs to me that I could still use my x-plan and it would only be about $200 more than this. Why would I do this you say?
Well I figure if I do X-plan the dealer will make more money (since Ford pays them for X-plan, someone correct me if I'm wrong) and maybe the dealer will throw an extra in with the deal for free like an ESP, wheels, or some accessories...
What do you guys think?

Huge no-no according to Ford. Ford says we aren't allowed to vary the pricing at all including throwing in freebies. If we get caught doing it we can get in all kinds of trouble including chargebacks on the plans commision, but more importantly you don't want to be on their bad side. Definately not worth it from the dealer side.
