(she is bummed because she wanted light blue, like the old frosted glass color, but she doesn't like ice storm as she says it's too green). 

 

I think that the "ice storm" is an awesome color!  It is a woman's color, but it looks the best in my opinion.  That is my sexist comment for the day.  

 

2013 incentives are great right now!  I pick up my FFE on Friday with the following incentives:

 

-2500 Ford rebate

-1000 competitive lease

-500 facebook coupon

-4000 federal tax incentive (recoverable in 2014)

-2500 Ford X-plan discount (friends and family of Ford employees)

 

Even if you can't get the X-Plan, you will be able to work them down on the MSRP.  Also the facebook cash may no longer be available this week.  Hope this helps.  Good luck.

Thanks APM, I'm just about sold now on the practicality of the FFE for our needs.  Just ready to pull the trigger and get a decent deal on a '13. 

Hi EnergiCCAATS,

 

Here is my yesterday's driving as reported by MyFord Mobile. A total of 13.1 miles and 2.6Kwh used and 49% battery remaining at the end of the day.

 

In terms of actual cost, I calculated that it cost me about $0.42 to drive the 13.1 miles, or about $0.032/mile (2.6Kwh x 1.4 charge waste x $0.1172 electricity rate / 13.1 miles)

 

As a comparison, if driving in Hybrid mode, the cost per mile is about $0.08 (using the EPA range of 43MPG and $3.50 per gallon).

 

Regards,

APM

X-Plan works with most other rebates and incentives (I combined X-Plan, $750 coupon, and $500 Ford incentive without an issue).  The only thing it doesn't usually jive with is any additional "dealer cash" or other dealership-level discounts.

 

Where are you finding 100 shares of Ford stock for $174??

 

Another (less expensive) option is to join the Mustang Club of America - membership is something like $50/year and members qualify for the X-Plan discount.

 

Also, since the MSRP reduction, the X-Plan is closer to "only" $2k off of the base MSRP on the two FFE models.
