Hybrider Report post Posted March 1, 2014 I just wanted to warn people about my experience with my dealer yesterday upon delivery of my new FFH SE, that in my mind was less than scrupulous. So now I think I understand why it is a very good idea to work out the OTD (out-the-door) price from the get go, upon the placing the initial order. I have ordered many cars from the factory before, both Fords and Chevys, but I have never had an experience with a dealership before like the one I just had, upon delivery of my new 2014 FFH SE. What the dealer did was add on options before delivery that were invasive options and would not be very easy to undo, like adding tinted windows (even if it is expected in a super hot SW desert climate) and wiring in a active alarm system in my dash. I did not want any "Protection" packages, and I definitely did not want the tinted windows because I consider it to be a safety hazard, impacting my outside visibility, and since Ford already installs the factory tint on the windows already. So apparently I should have worked out the OTD pricing at the very beginning to eliminate the possibility of the dealer adding on options I did not want, and ones which I definitely did not expect to have to pay for. On the tinted windows, I did manage to talk them down from $1000 to $250, but I shouldn't have even had to pay that since I did not order that. And on the alarm system, I told the finance guy I would rather pay the $300 for the alarm system than have his team put their grubby paws on my precious car again for them to rip it out from under the dash. Just had to rant, and hopefully help out anyone else that will be placing a factory order in the future. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
