Replying to: nightfly1 (Aug 31, 2007 8:55 am) All this stuff has me so put off so much that I decided to keep my 4 cylinder KIA.It probably gets better highway mileage than the Escape Hybrid anyway.Thats the problem with Ford and the rest of Detroit...they build the wrong cars.They just dont read the market.
#171 of 705 2008 Hybrid:Delays and Shortage by jamesmartymart Sep 10, 2007 (10:08 am)
I have the same problem. I am looking to buy a 2008 Escape Hybrid but can't seem to find one here in Edmonton, AB, Canada. The dealer says there is a 4 month delay!   ps.If anyone knows where I can find one matching the following options please send me a message:   Options wanted: 2008 Ford Escape Hybrid FWD Black Pearl Leather Chrome Navigation System Replies to this message: sksuh (Sep 10, 2007 8:36 pm)

Replying to: jamesmartymart (Sep 10, 2007 10:08 am) Best of luck. I'm actually quite surprised that my 2008 FEH arrived at all given the dismal delivery stories I've seen online.   Even more surprised given that Bow Valley Ford in Canmore, AB likely isn't a major seller compared to the big city dealers across Canada and the United States.   Stephen

Replying to: mickeyrom (Aug 16, 2007 9:22 am) Guess I feel lucky about getting my FEH.. Checked the local dealers here in the KC area and was told that 10 weeks is the average order time and of course no one had any. Did a std internet inquiry and a dealer 25 miles away responded that he had a 4wd black slate one coming in the next day and wondered if I would be interested. Went up to the dealer, gave him my Xplan pin and showed him my trade in and drove away 2 hours later. Window showed 31,105 with Xplan and $500 rebate - out the door at $28766 Not sure if I could have done better, but I was satisfied. (trade in was also fair and reduced the cost another $3000). Has not of the options except NAV. Would of likes to have the hybrid screens but don't need the GPS side.. The Escape was built 2 weeks before I bought it.

Replying to: kc_rusty (Sep 14, 2007 4:57 am) I'm so jealous. Ordered mine 6/21 and still waiting in Florida.
#175 of 705 numbers by cloftus Sep 14, 2007 (1:53 pm)
oh, does anyone know how the sales numbers are going? By the time I get my car,if ever, I hope I still qualify for a tax deduction. And where'd the $500 rebate come from?
#176 of 705 RE: KC Rusty entry # 173 by rnarg Sep 14, 2007 (2:04 pm)
TO: kc rusty   Wasn't aware the FEH came equiped with Navigation as an independent stand alone option. Everything I have observed indicates if you have Navigation in the Hybrid it is coupled with the Energy Flow Monitor (hybrid screen)you mention you wish you had, and also the audiophile am/fm 6CD stero option. As I understand it, the only one of these 3 you can get alone is the audiophile system.   If you actually have Navigation, are you sure you don't have the other 2? (If you have Navigation alone maybe it was installed as an accessory?)
#177 of 705 non-refundable deposit by 3screwsloose Sep 15, 2007 (7:44 am)
Replying to: rnarg (Sep 09, 2007 7:02 pm) Concerning the non-refundable deposit. Guess what - that is B.S. You are playing their game and being sucked in. If they cannot deliver the product as promised and continue to string you along then you can either let them or take a hike ( with your money ). A car salesman will tell you ANYTHING! Unfortunately, it is not always their fault. They can be misled too. Most are just dumb puppets. I know more about the cars they sell that they do.
#178 of 705 RE: Rebate Question by cloftus entry #175 by rnarg Sep 15, 2007 (6:04 pm)
The $500 is a Cash Incentive to purchase. If you go to the Kelly Blue Book site (www.kbb.com) and select New Car pricing and then price the 2008 Escape Hybrid with options, you should see one of the selections you can make refers to the $500 incentive.   Also, buyers who qualify for x plan pricing are offered this $500 incentive in certificate form.   Only problem is, this incentive ends on 10/01/2007, and the date that is used to qualify is the date the vehicle is delivered to you, the buyer. So us poor souls who may have the $500 incentive but are still waiting on FORD to deliver the vehicle will most likely be out of luck since I doubt we "waiters" will receive our vehicles by 10/01/2007.   On the other hand, if after 10/01/07 for some strange reason FORD provides another incentive (more than or less than the $500 one) we "waiters" will qualify for whatever rebates etc are applicable on the date of delivery. ( I know this is true for X plan buyers, so I would imagine the same procedure would apply to all buyers.   rnarg
#179 of 705 Found (2) in Florida by cloftus Sep 17, 2007 (5:28 pm)
Just returned from Tallahassee, Florida. If anyone's interested there are two 2008 FEH's at All American Ford. One is a 4x4. Didn't fit my order, so I'm still waiting.
