Searched but couldn't find a thread, so apologies if there is a megathread to discuss deals.

MSRP on the Platinum is $90,740 and the best I've been able to get is $72,615 + TTL.

Breakdown below:

MSRP: 90,740
X-Plan Discount: 3,434
3-Yr. BlueCruise Bonus Customer Cash: 615
EV - Retail Bonus Cash: 5,000
AXZD-Plan Customer Cash: 5,000
AXZD Bonus Customer Cash: 1,000
EV Public Charging Credit: 1,000
Ford Private Offer: 2,000
Price: 72,615 + TTL

Good deal or shop around more?

Sadly going to be a call for you and what you are seeing regionally.

Then you would want to make sure you want the Platinum over a Lariat. To me if I could find a Lariat for a few grand cheaper I would go that way with the range hit the larger wheels give and not a huge amount of difference between the two. But I will preface that with I don’t care about the features in the Lariat and Platinum so I may be biased a little. Go XLTs and the Flash Gordon⚡

Can you get all those incentives if you lease and do an immediate buyout to get the $7,500 tax credit before it goes away? We just did that on our '25 R1S and were able to payoff the lease with Chase/Rivian a week after we took delivery. The $7,500 in savings was actually about $5,700 after deducting the lease acquisition fee and rent charge on the first lease payment due at signing.

Is this the breakdown your dealer gave you on paper that is ready for your signature ?

for instance the $615 for Bluecruise isn’t a rebate per se. It’s now just $615 less on the build sheet but still a $2000 option unless it’s a very old platinum that has been sitting on dealer lot that had the original $2600 bluecruise price.

my guess is some of those rebates you won’t be able to use - however you should easily get around $11000 off plus 0%72

if you can get anywhere near your figure and mine you need to do it today. There are hardly any 24s left and very small amount of platinums because many people have taken ford up on their deals the past few months.

This is based on the sheet from the dealer. I just listed out the $615 to itemize final amount from original MSRP. All the icentives have been validated by the dealer.

It's a dealer a few hours away, so pickup is scheduled for next Monday. Made a deposit so they hold the car until next week.

I would have him put it in an official deal through their system and if they all stick go for it.

a few of those might “not be able to use” My guess he sees all the deals that are available but hasn’t done a lightning deal so he wouldn’t know until it’s plugged in the system

If it ends up being correct you won’t find a better deal and if you do - you run the risk of someone else being ok with $15k off and beats you to it.

Definitely shop around if you have the time, I agree with what Oafy44 says . I have a good example of what you can get if you find the right vehicle you want and fight it out long enough..... I just picked up my 2023 fully loaded lariat new off the lot. It took about 2 months of arguing , i started watching this truck online at the dealership back in late December , They have 3 23s two platinum's and a lariat, I called and bugged them every Thursday for 5 weeks straight ....... long story short i ended up paying 58 and change + TT&L

That's been done already. I have the deal printout and even asked x-plan printout to make sure I wasn't missing anything. It's in line with what ford.com calculates for a rapid replenishment order where it pulls most of the incentives you qualify for and are stackable.

I got my 2023 platinum used with 12K miles for 66 K ( in Cali). I love the premium sound and the overall looks. I added AWE topper. Sounds like your deal is quite reasonable.
