Fleet discount
Hello, new to the forum. We are looking to purchase a 2019 F-250. I just found out a couple years ago that I can get a fleet discount on Fords from a manufacturer (non auto) we buy a lot of product from. The discount on Superduty pickups is $5000. Last year I purchased a Transit which had a $4500 fleet discount available but didn't use it as they told me the rebates and such added up to more than $4500 and I could use only one or the other. Is anybody familiar with how these Fleet discounts work? Our local dealer is a real joy to work with but they are also a customer for us so we try. The transit van took me 7 months to buy from them, finally had to go get a deal from Woodhouse, and ask if they would match it,(hate having to do that) and they did. They try to sale off MSRP. My question is, does the Fleet discount HAVE to come off MSPP? Is it just rebates that are one or the other? Does the Fleet program Give the dealer the $5000 or is the dealer covering part of it? Just want the best deal I can get, Thank's, Mike

You could also join EAA and get the same offer. But you must be a member for many months before you are eligible. EAA partner code is EAA01
I just ordered a 2019 F350. The MSRP was $74,015 an the Partner price was $69,628. Then you are also eligible for most any rebates and incentives available at the time.

What you are describing is X-Plan. You get a Partner Code from your employer and go to www.fordpartner.com and price the truck/car. Dealer fees are also caped to max of $100.

Thank's for the reply. I went to www.fordpartner.com, thank's for the link. I tried the 2 numbers I have, 1 is a fleet ID number the other says option code, and I get :The following errors have occurred:
- 170-SUPPLIER NOT ON FILE, PLEASE TRY AGAIN.

Best to speak with the Fleet Manager at the dealership.

Go to fleet.ford.com
First you need to apply for a fleet ID number (FIN). here is a link that explains the fleet incentives
https://www.fleet.ford.com/orders/incentives/
fleet incentives are off of invoice.

My deal was X-Plan, not Fleet as I just learned.
With X-plan rebates can be used. I used the standard $500 rebate for F350s plus the $3000 private cash offer I found on this forum. The PCO expired on 7/9.
Here is my dealers work sheet. You can see the MSRP, X-Plan price and where they applied $3500 in rebates.

I think I have the fleet number already. Lennox keeps it up so we can print it whenever we need it. They just haven't updated, still listing 2017/2018 model years. When you say (fleet incentives are off of invoice) that's not the same as MSRP, which is the only number my dealer seems to understand....trying to figure out how get him to give me invoice, and go down from there. Sorry if these are dumb questions....Thank's

You can calculate MSRP and INVOICE at NADA site. NADA
it has 2019 numbers.

Keep at it...many dealers will try to talk around those corporate incentives...I know from experience. They will give you a thousand reasons why the truck you have a price on can't be sold to you at that price...just broaden you search area until you find a dealer that will work with you.

Thank's all for the info!
Is it correct that no other rebates or incentives can be used with fleet? Invoice -fleet $ only----- If you can't, it may make no sense to end up with last years model, like I usually end up doing.

Blwnsmoke, Fleet incentives are not a flat 3500 off X Plan, nor are they regional. There are several different fleet incentive programs, such as the CFIP, and CFAP which.are openly disclosed incentives, and for the largest customers, the CPA (Competitive Price Allowance). They all have different incentive prices. based on vehicle model. I see the term "rebates", so I don't think we are talking about the same thing.

Lets take a step back. Is this vehicle being purchased/Leased by Lennox for corporate use, or by you personally? If it is personally than we are talking about something else. You can't technically use a fleet FIN & fleet incentive unless it is going to be registered in the company or government name.
