X-plan prices are 1.5 percent below invoice. And, no negotiation is required, the dealer is locked in to a price provided by Ford that the buyer can see.. Also, all other rebates still apply. Re: the Mountaineers behind the gate. Sometimes, the last few digits of the VIN are hand-written in large letters on the windshield or rear window.

Replying to: lateralg (Jun 19, 2005 6:14 am) Does anyone know how to access the "Ordering Guide" from that link from another person. When I open it there is some text followed by a blank screen. All other cars/ suvs work, but not the Explorer. If not, could someone e-mail me the file as an attachment. jjcollom |

"no negotiation"...the X-plan price is printed directly on the dealer's paperwork, so they know it when they receive the vehicle... But, if you are related to a Ford employee, you can receive A-plan, which is cheaper than X-plan, as Ford employees and the relatives can recive a greater discount...but you must be related... X-plan not only gives you a unnegotiable discount, but all rebates still apply...may also give you a disocunt on extended warranty, another high-profit item for the dealer...

laterag: how did you order a 2006 Mountaineer. I can not find any ordering guides. I stopped at a dealer yesterday and they told me that they do not have any of the ordering information. Maybe they don't, maybe the people I spoke with did not know, or maybe they just want to sell the 2005 models on their lot. I will try some other dealers when I have the time, but maybe you have a better idea. IF I can find the ordering guide, I will also place an order. The link several posts ago no longer works. It appears that they have gotten ride of the Explorer ordering guide. I wonder if Ford is making some last minute changes? |

Replying to: lateralg (Jun 18, 2005 6:41 pm) I wish I could get another new car, but I bought a new car already. (had I not bought my I35, I'd probably be staring at a Saab in my driveway instead of an Infiniti)

| Not true. | |
| I wouldn't call it a "kickback" Ford provides employees and retirees a very modest reward for each vehicle purchased as a result of PINs issued. | |

I don't know what's up with your dealer, but I've found that some aren't very ambitious. I have "VEHICLE ORDER CONFIRMATION" dated 05/26/05. Since then I received the VIN. |
