X-Plan information

[JOHN MARCHMAN]

Are there any restrictions when purchasing on the X-Plan. Are you allowed to trade in your vehicle?



Thanks for any info..

 

[Aaron Yarbough]

Yes, you are allowed to trade in your vehicle with an X-Plan purchase.

 

[Scott Tanner]

yes, but i would agree on a trade in value before i would reveal that you have an x-plan to use... JMO

 

[Tom Schindler]

If you are an X-Plan buyer, you are REQUIRED per the plan rules and regulations, to identify yourself an an X-Plan buyer.



Without doing so will disqualify yourself from buying X-Plan on the spot, per Ford rules and regulations.

you are correct , tom... however i've found that most dealers, at least around me, are not up of the minute details on the plan. In fact, they look at it as moving a car off their lot, which most of them are hurting to do so...



in fact, you are probably better off selling the car outright for the best $$$ value, if you can wait...

 

[Tom Schindler]

STanner,



You are correct. Most dealers wouldn't say anything, but there is always that chance.



You are always better off selling your old vehicle outright, but there is a dealer near me uses KBB for trade in value and on top of that, they give everyone a bonus $1000.00 on every deal...including A/X/Z deals.

geez, half the fun is to watch these sales dudes squirm when you know more than they do about the vehicles, programs, rebates, options, etc... i always go to the 'green' sales dude... i don't abuse them, but i do enough research and i enter the dealership knowing what i am going to spend... we just leased a 2007 milan I4 auto, sign and drive, tax and everything rolled in, drive it home for under 250/mo, 15k /year... sure gets better milage than the trac....:lol:

When I car shop, I play the salesmen. I let them talk, I then correct them when they are wrong. They sometimes try to argue. I then tell them not to argue because I know more about the vehicle then they do.



Some get pissed. I laugh and leave.

If anybody wants an X plan pin, I still have a couple left.



Have a good one
