PNW Lightning deals (What did you pay?)

[pkh540]

Hey everyone, I’m in the Seattle area and looking to purchase a Flash version. For anyone in the area, what sort of discounts were you able to negotiate? So far I’m getting $4,000 in incentives, about $2,000 discount + the $7,500 tax credit (then add on tax, title, license). But it looks like there may be more room for negotiation. Thanks!

I’m not in PNW, but I’m seeing $8500 in incentives (all ford money) and if you qualify for X-plan through an employer or membership there is some more off MSRP.

I ‘m wondering if the incentives on 2024‘s will get better in January if they expect the tax credit to go away.

I purchased my Pro trim at Kendall Ford in Marysville, WA at the end of Sept. It was mostly an online transaction so not much "negotiating", but there were some Ford incentives, the $7500 federal and $5000 WA state incentive. You also save a little in sales tax vs the Seattle area too. The WA state incentive has ended, but may come back again. At the time, they did have a few Flash trims available. The internet sales team was great to work with and the final transaction was very smooth. The dealer is massive and has a huge inventory, I would check them out if you're still looking.

I would also check out Mullinax Ford in Olympia. Their internet sales team was also super easy to work with, they just didn't have the option combo I was looking for. They post their incentives on each vehicle on the website with the no-haggle price. You click a button, answer some questions, and they send you the "out the door" price.

I live in Michigan but you would get the same deal anywhere else in the country. I just got a 2024 F150 Lightning Lariat with the following rebates,tax credits, etc.

• $7500 - Federal Tax Credit
• $1000 - EV Holiday Bonus Cash
• $1000 - EV Retail Bonus Cash
• $2000 - Bonus Cash
• $3121 - X-plan Rebate
• $6000 - X-plan Bonus
• ~ $2500 - Free Ford Charger Station Pro and free installation
• 0% financing for 72 months
• My utility company gives me $500 rebate plus $10/month for 12 months
• Also, federal tax credits for charger installation of 30% of cost

I'm not a Ford employee but if you're military and you join WeSalute+, Ford will give you the employee pricing ($3121 + $6000). It only cost $59.95 to join WeSalute+. It's a great deal. I saved a bunch of money. All told, I figure around $23,121+. Not bad!

Basically similar numbers to what I’m seeing in MA. There are a bunch of ways to get X plan, most of the membership ones supposedly have a 90 day waiting period.

I looked into the ”free” charger and specifically reviews of the install company and think I will be taking the $1000 credit to avoid the headache. I wouldn’t mind a second charger, but reviews on other forums and Reddit suggest the company tries to nickel and dime the end user for “non standard” installation.

I already have a Tesla charger, maybe I’ll swap that for a newer one with the adapter built on for $550. The base plate should be the same so I can just swap it myself. If I needed to charge both EV’s I could plug in the travel charger to the 50 amp welder plug (Wired with 6/3 and a Hubble receptacle). Between the 30% federal tax credit and a $700 credit from my utility allowing them to turn off the charger at peak times my entire install net cost was $385 for the 60 amp circuit ($1000) and the charger itself ($550).

What was MSRP on your Lariat? I almost pulled the trigger on a Flash a month ago for 65k w taxes, but waited one week and had a Lariat lined up for $67k incl. taxes (no ProPower 9.6kw, but probably more comfy). However, a friend bought a Rivian the same day and offered us their SUV for an awesome price instead of trading it in. We're still going to need a second car probably (wife will be returning to office next year for unknown # of days/wk), but I figured I can wait into Q1 2025 and get a better deal...

Sticker was $79,590. The deal was only on 2024 models. I don't know what they'll be offering if you wait until next year. Also, the MSRP has to be below $80,000 to get the federal tax credit.
