GM has been doing it for quite a while. Don't know if Ford plans to follow.

Remember...there is no such thing as "0% APR Financing"...in each and every case you sacrifice a rebate to get that rate. For instance...I sold a Super Duty today...the customer had their choice of $7500 in rebates OR $2000 in rebates and 0% APR. To finance at 0% would cost the customer $5500 more!!! You just pay the finance charge all at once...if you pay off the loan early...you lose that amount of money.

It may work for you...do your due diligence...check it both ways!!!
