#354 of 632 timeframes for receiving 09 orders by finallyanewcar May 13, 2008 (3:11 pm)
Hi there,   I want to order a '09 FEH and am wondering if the dealership where you place an order would make any difference in the time when you receive the vehicle, e.g., if you place an order with a smaller dealership might it be a longer wait than if you placed it with a huge dealership. I would like to support a smaller dealership if the wait would be the same. Any insight???
#355 of 632 Details of 2009 Escape available as PDF by fmorriso May 14, 2008 (6:12 am)
I have scanned in and converted to PDF the 11-page document I received from my dealer back in April called "2009 Escape & Escape Hybrid Major Product Changes, 4/17/08" and will gladly email it to anyone who requests it. Just send me an email at fpmorrison "at" verizon "dot" net. The file size is 430K. It tells you all the "codes" for ordering along with what has changed from 2008 to 2009 on the FE (XLS, XLT, Limited) and FEH (Regular, Limited). The "Limited" is new for both the FE and FEH. Sections in the document: 1. Major Product Changes 2. Major Product Summary 3. Standard Equipment 4. Functional Equipment (shows pictures of wheels) 5. Optional Equipment 6. Color & Trim Availability 7. Package Options/Emissions 8. Powertrain/Dimensions - note: fuel economy is set to "TBD", so don't get your hopes up.

the dealership i have been working with anticipates arrival dates in Aug/Sept and does not know anything about a delay.

Replying to: burnsva (May 11, 2008 1:58 pm) That is correct. I ordered mine this morning and was told 4-6 months. One bad thing is no high end stereo/speakers on the 2009 Hybrid.
#358 of 632 Good article by bjcarter May 15, 2008 (7:02 pm)
Might not be the correct thread but still a good article: http://www.autobloggreen.com/2008/05/15/abg-first-drive-2009-ford-escape-hybrid/-
#359 of 632 Is this a good deal? by neuroboy002 May 16, 2008 (5:22 pm)
I just received a quote for the Ford Escape Hybrid Limited - $30,000 + tax (CA) and license. Is this an average deal? Replies to this message: burnsva (May 16, 2008 7:08 pm) neuroboy002 (May 17, 2008 8:05 pm) burnsva (May 18, 2008 5:00 am)
#360 of 632 2009 Production Information by fmorriso May 16, 2008 (6:02 pm)
I spoke to my dealer. My April 20 order for a FEHL is the first for that particular dealer. As for the debate about when scheduling will start (May 15 vs. mid-Septermber) and when production will start (June 23 vs. October), here's what my dealer told me today:   The order of production is: 1. Retail orders 2. Dealer stock 3. Fleet sales   My order shows in the Ford computer as "Clean" but not yet scheduled as of May 14. If it was scheduled on May 15, then it might not post into the computer system until Saturday. He said he'll come in on Saturday, check the computer and get back to me.   Anybody else heard same/different from their dealer? Replies to this message: bjcarter (May 16, 2008 6:52 pm)

Replying to: fmorriso (May 16, 2008 6:02 pm) that's great news. Is there a publicly accessible link to this sort of thing?
#362 of 632 Re: Is this a good deal? [neuroboy002] by burnsva May 16, 2008 (7:08 pm)
Replying to: neuroboy002 (May 16, 2008 5:22 pm) The MSRP for the 2009 FEH FWD Limited (no options) is $30,635 plus destination/delivery charge of $695 and of course tax, tags, processing fees. I had my dealer write out exactly what cost what (no hidden surprises). I got my delear to agree to $875 below MSRP plus a $500 rebate at delivery - but anything below MSRP is a good deal.
