I've never been much of a gambler.... my brain sorta freezes up when it comes to warrant-less speculation! For starters... trim levels matter. But one the "cheaper" trucks generally 3-5k is the high spot until you get into the true leftover status. Ford has been pushing more of a regional rebate program so it could easily be different around the country. These rebates are based on where you register the truck, not where you buy it.
I was thinking a loaded XLT CCSB 4x4 gas. When will the 2018MY start hitting the lots?

They start building them mid-November. If you get in right away, it will be ordered in Mid-September. There will be a backlog, so plan on at least 3 months, as it is two months without a backlog.
Look for Mid-March 2018 for a retail customer to get a 2018 truck. That is why I went with a 2017. Prices probably 2% less for a 2018, plus better rebates now.
Is it possible to get a AQHA rebate, and a brochure rebate? And the $750 Ford financing rebate? I will be getting X-plan pricing.
I have read that the AQHA cannot be used with X-Plan pricing. Any ideas? Or anyone use it already?

If you want to post a link to the truck you see advertised I'll let you know if I see any funny business from my perspective.
Not sure "stackable" means that AQHA can be combined with the brochure coupon/rebate or not (not clear).
What I am relatively positive about is that if you finance with FMCC that you get the $750 Ford financing rebate. Nothing else seems to affect it. Either you finance with FMCC or you don't.
This is where my understanding is......... clear as mud!!!

I just searched and read everything I could find here on AQHA/Brochure/etc........ and....the question is never directly answered that I can find.
But yes, I think AQHA can be used with brochure rebate. It just cannot be combined with other "Private Offers" (i.e.--from non-Ford entities.... Military discount.....Farm Bureau discount...... etc.).
Therefore IMO:
Ford Rebates + Ford Financing Rebate + Brochure Coupon +AQHA Coupon = Total Discounts
This is my understanding based on everything I read. I'm sure if I am wrong....... someone will clear it up.
I picked my truck up today and got customer cash, the FMCC financing rebate and AQHA rebate. Those three worked together for a total of $3500 in my ZIP. I ordered a brochure but it did not arrive by the time I was ready to pick my truck up, so I'm not yet sure if it would have had the coupon, and/or if it would have worked with AQHA.
That is great news!! I joined AQHA today, and sent for my brochure a few days ago.
Senator ......
In all my searching and reading today on AQHA, I read in a thread that someone was able to go into the AQHA system and get their certificate after 30-40 days....... I know their promo info says 60 days.
Anyway...... after a month or so you might be able to log it and try it. Hope this helps!!
I requested a brochure... just got it yesterday... no coupon.
Not sure your time frame...... but....... you can order another brochure. You do not have it in hand to get the coupon discount (if a coupon is issued). If it's been issued the dealer can look it up using your name/address. If one has been issued it will be in the system.
I think I read (on the internet) where you can order 3/year. But, you will want to order on a different model (i.e. - F150, Explorer, etc.) the coupon issued is not model specific. It is a Ford coupon/rebate and if issued can be used on any Ford model.

Thank you, I'll give it a shot. The truck is about a month out.

Look for Mid-March 2018 for a retail customer to get a 2018 truck. That is why I went with a 2017. Prices probably 2% less for a 2018, plus better rebates now.
2018s will be out on the lots by the end of 2017, not mid March of 18. It is not an all new model so the 5 day build requirement shouldn't be extended which means customer orders get built on day 6. Once built, they should start shipping shortly after. If anyone is within truck delivery distance, they should have them by beginning of December.
If orders are placed when order banks open, one will get in line pretty quickly to get it built.

Are you saying that a customer ordering a truck when the order banks open will get a truck delivered within 3 -4 weeks? The Production start up is 11/20/17. If customer orders get built on day 6, that is 11/26/17. There are a few holidays in that time frame too (11/23 & 11/24), so that may delay it. Of course, any delay from Ford will delay the entire lineup.
I know that it is probably only 2-3 days on the assembly line (20 hours I have heard), but there is a lot of logistics that go into the process, and it depends on how many shifts are working.
I am guessing that other higher priority customers will be built first, like larger commercial accounts. Dealers will need some for their own lots. I have been hearing a minimum of 6 weeks from order to delivery, for 2017s ordered now, when there is no backlog. If it has to go by rail, even longer. There are even stories of 3+ months.
When did the first people get to drive their 2017s? I have no clue as to the Ford process, but I am guessing that the a 2018 truck at beginning of December for the average person is a pipe dream.
