KeyWestLes Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share Posted August 3, 2014 The TC is ready (with graphics installed yesterday) for pick-up on Tuesday. I will not forget about this turmoil. I will be wiser next time, hopefully a long time from now. My brother is driving the TC here and we hope to see it no later than Thursday!

KeyWestLes Posted August 18, 2014 Author Share Posted August 18, 2014 Last post to follow up on this saga. I finally took delivery (my brother drove it from the dealer in PA to our home) less than 2 weeks ago. I ordered this thing in mid-February, receiving it at the dealer 5 1/2 months later. Short version... after waiting way too long, and having a ridiculous time with my dealer.... I LOVE the TC! It's a great minivan: runs great, gets lots of looks, has cool features. I have no regrets in ordering the TC, excessive waiting aside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeyWestLes Posted August 18, 2014 Author Share Posted August 18, 2014 I was given 2 choices. I opted for a lower rebate amount and a super low APR for my financing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnyguy Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Thats very good i mean after this long wait we kind of deserve some kind of compensation at least i can dream rigth lol, May ask what was the two options? I been waiting for my tc since April I was wondering if I would get the cash back I have not call my dealer yet. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeyWestLes Posted August 18, 2014 Author Share Posted August 18, 2014 I can't address what your dealer will do, or the timing of any incentives when you finally take delivery. When I paid my deposit for the order in Feb, I was offered a $500 rebate, which was locked in at that time. When I took delivery, the rebates in total actually racked up to $2500! The APR that was offered by Ford Credit was not pretty, and then the dealer said that he found an APR offer of 0.09%, but the rebates would be less. The total dollar amount favored the lower APR over the cash back amount that was withdrawn. At least you know that there may be additional incentives upon delivery than what was offered originally. It's worth the energy to squeeze the dealer for all available choices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like your new avatar but your vehicle is no longer an "Awaiting" TC curious, what watersports do you like to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeyWestLes Posted August 18, 2014 Author Share Posted August 18, 2014 I update my info, thx. I work too much to have a single water-related passion. We hit the beach when we can, I snorkel and SCUBA when I have the time (and $$), and we usually only go fishing when guests come to visit.
