Looks like Ford ended the retail cash rebates for 2023 MY. They had been marked to end Jul 8, 2024, but they are no longer showing on any dealer websites.

I know, it sucks. They also ended the 4th quarter retail cash rebates last year early that were supposed to go to 1/2/24. i got a $7,500 rebate applied in October in addition to a $2,500 dealer discount and $7,500 tax credit that I filed for 2023 tax year. Sometime in November 2023 they discontinued it early.

Right now the cash rebate incentive was replaced with a 1.9% interest rate for 72 months.

Funny thing, I've never seen a sales person so delayed and/or not interested in trying to sell a vehicle... I inquired about a 2023 Lariat ER and got a bunch of automated emails over a week or so, I replied to the last one and then the sales person just didn't want to answer any of my questions.

With the rebates gone I am no longer interested.

I'm willing to bet that the actual price you could get one for is the same as with the rebate, some of these have been on the lot for months. You can get an SR for around $50K in the Midwest, I have an SR and it is an awesome truck. I just got back from a 1,500 mile trip to the Southern Oregon Coast (all the way from near Canada to California) and it was no problem at all. The only hard part was the nearly stopped traffic on I-5 on the way back, I'd rather have been sitting at a charger!

My dealer in New Mexico confirmed the rebate is gone and now the dealer is discount only 5% vs the 10% when I bought it. So a difference $7,500 + 3,300 = $10,800 - glad I bought when I did.

Wild I have had that exact experience as well. Mine were better about a few questions but then …. Nothing.

I went ahead and pulled the trigger in March and bought my Lightning XLT. I was going to wait to see if they marked them down even more but went ahead and I'm glad I did. By the way, if you want to save some $$$ - get the XLT and then have leather seats put on. My dealer added the leather for $1500.00. This saves you from having to get a lariat or Platinum unless there is something else on those you really want.

Anyone know if Ford was doing good interest rates (<4%) in combination with the $7500 rebate before it ended?

I got 1.9% on 36 months. But also purchased Lariat so the rebate was only $5,000. Same dealership is now offering 0.0% AOC on Lariats.

2023 F150 Lightning XLT ER
I got the 1.9% for 36 months with $7500 rebate on an XLT ER in April. I spoke to a lot of local dealers in Washington and they weren’t willing to negotiate more than about $2k off, so I bought in Ohio with a $10k dealer discount and had it shipped. There are still so many 2023 MY sitting on lots. With dealers not willing to take a loss and Ford removing the rebate I expect they’ll be sitting for a long time.

Yeah, same here: XLT ER in March, free mobile charger, free super charger pro and free spray in bed liner, $7,500 rebate, $7,500 fed gov, and $7,300 (10% off sticker) dealer discount with 3.9% interest.
