I was one of the fortunate few who put my order in a very long time ago, was guaranteed production & delivery for 2022 model, and then the delays hit. I was very glad to hear that Ford was going to give me a 2023 model and honor the 2022 price. The problem is I still have not heard anything about Direct offer/rebates to offset pricing increase. I’m supposed to take ownership of the truck sometime next week and have not gotten anything official from Ford and my dealer said I need a letter from Ford with the “certificate numbers”? Does anybody know more about this process?

Call Ford and make sure you have a private offer attached to your account; then make sure that is reflected when you close with the dealer.

The private offer is attached to the VIN and your name. When they pull up Smart Vincent it’ll be there. At first I was freaking out because the sales rep had no idea what I was talking about. I think I was their first 2022 to 2023 private offer customer. Asked me if I had an email about it and nope I didn’t (I only had a vague screenshot and info from online forums). I called Ford from the dealer and they assured me I had it. Then gave me a certificate number which the sales rep was able to pull up. But I think if I was patience enough to wait till the finance guy it would have eventually showed up.
