#299 of 705 Re: Escape Hybrid FWD 08, $24,000+fee tax, good deal? [lee70] by bjcarter Mar 09, 2008 (3:36 pm)
Replying to: lee70 (Mar 08, 2008 6:59 pm) I wouldn't go higher... that's in CA that is. I was quoted 23.7k initially for a mazda tribute hybrid. I suppose it depends on the package

Replying to: lee70 (Mar 08, 2008 6:59 pm) Go to the dealer's website and you will be able to print out the invoice for the specific car you are interested in. It will show both dealer's cost (invoice) and suggested retail price (MSRP, or "list"). Or go thru www.forddirect.com   it's a decent deal, maybe a great deal depending on options. In CA, you can get them below dealer's invoice price (and way below MSRP) if there are factory incentives. I got mine $1080 below invoice ($2700 below MSRP) in December 07 in SF Bay Area.
#302 of 705 A full 8 months, but here it is! by drlarsen Mar 20, 2008 (8:31 am)
Well I finally received my FEH after a full 8 month wait. After driving it for a couple days I can see why everyone says they love them.   If only they could fix their production problems, they'd have a few more sales. I had some family in from out of town and they loved it as well. They're in the market for a new vehicle and said they just found what they were looking for -- until I pointed out the 8 month delay .
#303 of 705 Press Request by KarenS HOST Mar 21, 2008 (8:16 am)
A reporter hopes to speak with consumers who want to buy hybrid SUVs that are having a hard time finding them at dealerships and/or are frustrated by dealers marking up the prices on the hybrids. If you are a consumer looking to purchase a hybrid SUV, please respond to ctalatiedmunds.com with your daytime contact information no later than Tuesday, March 25, 2008.
#304 of 705 Re: Almost but not yet - Batteries (not) Included [cycook] by cycook Mar 28, 2008 (6:13 pm)
Replying to: cycook (Dec 26, 2007 5:01 pm) Batteries were finally included...  and I took delivery March 27th. Five months since I ordered my 2008 Lt. Ice Blue FEH. Haven't driven more than 45 miles yet but each mile has been a pleasure. Thank you all for your enthusiasm that helped me through the wait. I'll report again once I experience more of the joy of hybrid driving. Replies to this message: fmorriso (Mar 28, 2008 10:35 pm) jhorback (Mar 29, 2008 5:37 am)

Replying to: cycook (Mar 28, 2008 6:13 pm) Congratulations. So your 2008 really is a 2008 when measured by its actual delivery date. The DC auto show reports indicate that 2009’s will be available for ordering in May. If your experience is typical, that means that the 2009 I plan to order might not arrive until almost 2009, which is about what I have been estimating. Maybe after Ford sells off its interest in Jaguar and Land Rover to the nice folks over in India, they’ll be able to “focus” [pun intended] on how to ramp up production of FEH/MMH.

#306 of 705 2009 Production Start Up by jhorback Mar 29, 2008 (5:37 am)
Replying to: fmorriso (Mar 28, 2008 10:35 pm) A quote yesterday from a New Vehicle Inventory & Advertising Manager   "04/17/2008 2009 MY Escape Unscheduled Order Bank Opens 05/15/2008 2009 MY Scheduling Begins 06/23/2008 2009 MY Job #1 - Production Starts"   The Donlen dates are now different but they are a fleet management company. If Job 1 is end of June, and we know Ford has boosted overtime for the Escape/Mariner Hybrids, best case would be end of July beginning of September for the arrivals at the dealerships. Of course all is subject to change.
#307 of 705 Typical deposit by bjcarter Apr 05, 2008 (5:25 pm)
When ordering a new vehicle, what have people been offering as a typical deposit if any at all. A deposit seems reasonable although with the economy taking a dive perhaps the market will reflect otherwise...
