I'm hoping to see Ford offer dealer cash, which could get passed on to the buyer.

Bottom line, is losing this car worth the possibly of saving another $500?

Yes, that is the big question... What will Ford do on June 1st......... I have a feeling the car will still be there... But, will the rebates go up, stay the same, or go down.....

What a coincidence. I am looking at an extremely similar car here locally. I have access to A Plan and after that and rebates the price was 27,951. The one I was looking at had the comfort package too though. I was hoping to find one a little less optioned to make the deal closer to $26k myself. Sounds like you worked a pretty good price considering you don't have A Plan or anything. They are working close to invoice.

Be sure to drive a 2011 v6 and compare. My friend thought the v6 pulled better up top.

The sound between the two is great, for sure! I would say that is probably the biggest difference. Of course, the steering is quite different in the 11 too.

I cannot see them taking any money off the table, especially in regions that have a lot of stock.

To your point from a different response, they always seem more flexible on the last day of the month, so maybe you can get the price where you want it today.
