Show proof you own your own business (DBA, federal tax ID, copies of tax returns with a Schedule C, or liability insurance policy) and you get $300. Add $1200 in equipment you need for your business (snow plow, lettering, cap, tool boxes- almost anything), and Ford increases that $300 to $1000.

Wow, I didnt even know this rebate existed.

Do, you have to register anywhere or do you just show the dealership that you own a business?? Also this is nation wide....Correct??

Thanks.

It's nationwide, and you don't have to register- just show proof you own your own business. Unfortunately, most dealers don't even know the program exists.

Oh one more thing, if I use this rebate. Will the vehicle need to be registered as a company vehicle?

Sorry to ask so many questions. Your help is sincerely appreciated!! Thanks.

No, you can register it in your own name. The only advantage to registering it in the comapny name is that you don't have to provide proof of business ownership.

You can buy the accessories form anyone- they don't have to come from Ford. You just have to get receipts for $1200 or more to your dealer so he can claim the rebate.

I have used both commercial and AQHA together in the past, but Ford has been changing some of these around lately. Your dealer can check compatability on his SmartVINCENT system.
