Can the Ford production delay money be used for a warn winch or an Antimatter Blue Wrap since Ford black balled us?

All of that program depends on your dealership. Nothing in that program forces them to do anything. This is BS, and they should just give you more reward points SoYOU can USE vs something that leaves it up to the dealership

It's just a publicity stunt to get some good press and the customer will ultimately be left out . All Ford is doing is helping their customer , which are the dealers not us . Many dealers will keep most if not all of the money for themselves .

I checked with my dealer and they don't know anything yet about the supposed cash incentive program to help waiting customers feel better . . .

Well, from what I read, the dealership dont get the money first, they have to use it and then fill out a form with proof, IE receipts, photos, etc

The money is discretionary for each dealer up to $1k. You could apply that money toward either of those items, but you'd have to discuss it with your dealer.

They let us know about the program, more details on how to move forward with it in October. We can't start using it until then.
