I have never had a problem using an extra rebate from the EAA with a Ford rebate. What they won't let you do is stack rebates from the EAA and some other place

Ok so i joined the Mustang Club in June for $25 to get X-Plan. Joined AQHA hoping to get the $500. After printing it out does not work with X-Plan (oh well). Now I joined EAA for $40 got X-Plan pin and $750 (maybe truck going to be here within two weeks). Seems like I'm backing up. Is any of this going to work? Does anyone have any more advice time is getting close?

I just got the cert. for the $750 for free and sent it to my dealer. You do have to use the X-plan to get it. So, it will still save me about $500 off the invoice. You will need your PIN, site says need 60days, but you can print instantly and up to your dealer if they will be picky. Worth the $40 to try

Did you have the 750.00 Experimental Aircraft Association X-Plan Program Direct Offer Confirmation Print out to give to the Dealer? you will also need your X-Plan Pin number and your membership card.

The debate remains do I use the X plan plus $750 or stick with the dealers initial offer of invoice less $800. I did get the Xplan etc just for backup but the dealer should hold to his word. Hate to waste the X plan but would rather stay on the right side of the dealer who said right away many many months ago that he would always beat the x plan and would rather have the credit for the sale in house rather than a corporate program. Guess there is no real debate, just musing about the possibilities.

Ask him why he doesn't want the X plan. Only reason I can think of is that Ford limits the amount that they can charge you for documentary fees with it. Are they charging you a huge documentary fee?

My dealer now sells most cars at invoice because of TrueCar. When I told him I could get a X Plan pin he said great. He made an extra $300 on the deal by using X plan. Based on this the dealer would be way better off taking the x plan and Ford giving you the $750 off than him giving you his holdback money.

I think you will be better off with your dealer's deal. X-plan ends up being a few dollars more than invoice on a typical Super Duty so X-plan-$750 is not as good a deal as Invoice-$800. Plus if your dealer's starting price is lower than X-plan, that is what you'll pay sales tax on. In NY you get charged the tax on the full purchase price and the rebates are taken after so ole Andy makes sure to maximize his cut. That's why it makes sense to trade if they will give you a good $$ amount for your trade-in. I'd have to get $2440 more for my trade on a personal sale to just break even.

X plan is always cheaper than invoice, doesn't matter if it's a SD or not.
X plan is .4% less than invoice. On a 70k truck that is $280. Add the 750 and you are at $1030. Plus fees are limited to $100
