Ford isn't going to do anything to hurt the retailer / franchisee of his opportunity to upsell and make a profit.

Another valid point.

lol.

I would like to pick mine up too.

Before signing my sales order I noticed the cost for "vin etching" and asked about it. He said it is policy that they do all new vehicles. I just said thanks, but your policy doesn't dictate what money I spend, so if it is your policy and my money, thanks for putting it on. They did not charge me, took the cost off the order.

Not a big deal but enough for me to say no way!
