  1. $12,500 tax credit possible?

    I don’t want to belabor this, but I am so confused by this statement. You get the tax credit (theoretically) just because you have the tax liability to be offset by the $7,500 credit. If you are not a net tax payer, you do not get the credit. This is really no different from saying that if you...
  2. $12,500 tax credit possible?

    The Lifeline program (or more recently called "Obamaphone") began in 1985 under Reagan. But hey, if you don't want the credit, you are certainly free to reject it, just like a free phone.
  3. $12,500 tax credit possible?

    This thread has taken a bit of an interesting turn to a debate about the efficacy and equality of the potential $12,500 tax incentive as opposed to its possibility. When it comes to the allocation of repair costs, I would consider utility vs actual impact, meaning that there is more untility of...
  4. Are reservation holders required to pay MSRP + markup?

    I finally received my welcome call from my local dealer today. They said they did not have any information on the vehicle more than what Ford has announced at this time, but that they would be in contact once orders begin to open. I responded that my only questions were whether they will...
  5. $12,500 tax credit possible?

    I totally agree with your logic and the inevitability of the bill passing. What I am less confident in is that the additional $5,000 of incentives will be included. I think an expansion of the credit to 500 or 600 thousand units is much more probable, and perhaps even the additional $2,500 for...
  6. $12,500 tax credit possible?

    Possible, but I wouldn’t say probable. Seems like we can’t get people to agree in which day it is, let alone passing any proposed bills. That said, I am pulling for this hard. Having the ability to get 12.5k in credits makes this truck a no brainer for me.
  7. X-plan for Lightning reservation holders?

    Thanks for the info. I may switch to them. I don’t love the amount of robo emails I am getting currently, asking me the same thing over and over regardless of my reply.
  8. Digesting the 70% price gap between the XLT and Platinum Lightning.

    My guess is that the Lariat will clock in about $68,000 before delivery and with few options but with extended range. If the tax credit is in effect, I think this is where I would buy. Without the credit, I think this would be tough to swallow for a truck that is somehow more impractical to...
  9. X-plan for Lightning reservation holders?

    Which dealer did you use? My last special order was with Metro and it was not an experience I would care to repeat. I went with kendall this time, but I did not feel confident. I was thinking of switching to Sawgrass or Plantation.
  10. Limited Lightning Tow Range

    Newbie here, but a long time Ford sufferer owner. I have followed along with the discussion here and I have appreciated all of the information. I could see this truck working on a "work level" for local landscapers towing a trailer, or the weekend warrior towing a race car or motorcycle to...
