Private cash offer (PCO)

[RDH]

Tried it. Didn’t work for me. I did receive two emails. One with my trade in info and the other one was from my local dealer with their info. I am in North Carolina. Maybe it depends on your location.

Tried it in central FL and it did not work. Also still searching for a Florida dealer who will offer invoice less $1,000 as Granger has. If someone is out there within 300mi that is looking to make a deal on a 2021 Platinum 701a I‘m ready to give a deposit.

Has anyone received a PCO recently? If so, how did you receive?

I’ve been trying to obtain one for some time now without luck. Wife says if we can get a $2,500 PCO and get the 2021 for at invoice or below to put it on order.

If anyone has an idle offer they are not planning on using, send me a PM, would love to pay it forward in the future following our purchase.

I've tried everything to get a PCO from doing B&P, searching adds, and calling Ford Marketing. I came across your trick and I got a PCO for $1500. Thank you.

My dealer here in Bama did mine for 1,000 below invoice, will be further than 300 miles though. He has locked my PCO also.

I may do the same. There are a lot of XLTs coming that fit the bill for me if I can get a deal now (qualify for Xplan). I think if I ordered the XLT the chance of getting a better rebate/financing for March delivery is higher. I rarely see much of a Lariat rebate in TX though. Typically the best I have seen is the low interest deals, because there is not much of a rebate to give up on the higher trim levels anyway.

You right, the biggest incentive target area has always been the XLT series.

Every dealer is doing it a different way. One dealer has me $2,220 below invoice but cannot lock the PCO. Another dealer has me $129.90 below invoice (guess how much their doc fee is?), but they will lock my $2,500 PCO. It's all a numbers game...

That's kind of where I'm at. If neither dealer will give me my $2k PCO, then I will next ask if they can just bump up my trade instead. As of now, I think I can get $30k minimum private sale but they are only offering $25k from dealership. They would sell it for low 30's anyway off their lot and still make profit.

The trade allowance is a whole different ball game. Taxes on a $66,0000 truck, in Arkansas, would be $4,290 without the trade and $2,145 with the trade (at KBB Trade value of $33k). I would have to get an additional $2,145 or $35, 145 to make up the difference.

It is such a shell game!

But we're in CA, one of only like 12 states where the trade in does not reduce your taxable sale price...

So to the dealer its the same funny money. If Ford corporate won't honor the PCO to the dealer, the dealer is eating it in good faith by letting me use it past expiration. Dropping $2k off the top or adding it into trade is the same to them as far as I know (it doesn't reduce the sale price for tax purposes).

Wait, Arkansas? Why have I been thinking you were in NoCal this whole time?

Well, I can't seem to get my truck delivered but I can get PCO sent to me. This is my second one and is $500 less than my first ($2500 exp 4Jan). Good thing my dealer locked in my first one, came in the mail today.

Getting your email and signing up for updates is all I did, and it seemed to work.

Rail yard said my truck was being loaded to ship out this evening, should be there tomorrow. Guess we will see.

Sorry, all information seems to indicate they are regional to boost sales in certain area's.

When you sign up, use your name but different addresses, use family and friends addresses. Click the mail info box and leave email blank. Let them know what you are doing so it don't end up in the trash.

Just an idea

I thought it was tied to your last name and zip code?? If you send it elsewhere, it wouldn't work, right?
