Hi guys, as I get more serious about trying to order a Tremor, I have a few questions about the process.
Firstly, as I understand it, you negotiate the deal before submitting the order, is that right?
If so, how does a trade-in work...will they write up the deal with a hard number for your trade, which you're then still driving for 8+ weeks or more?
how does the rate work with ford...assuming you finance with them, do they give you a locked in rate at the time of order (as that would be a 60-90 day rate lock I'd think depending on delivery times)..., or do you have to finalize financing at the time of delivery? Obviously I'd probably rate shop anyway but just curious how in house financing works on a special ordered vehicle.
Anyone know what Ford Credit rates looks like for a mid 700s score? last score hard-pull in June was 750 transunion and not much has changed since then.
My realistic order time is end of the year but maybe I should pop into the local dealership sooner just to get a conversation going and get some answers to my generic questions.
My planned build, for shits and giggles is: F350 Platinum 6.7, either iconic silver or magnetic (kind of leaning toward silver), tremor package, moon roof, supplemental cab heater, block heater, spray in bed liner, spray in wheel well liners, roof marker lights, uplifter switches, 5th wheel prep package.
another question...anyone know the actual roof height of these beasts? My work garage clearance could be an issue which would wreck the whole plan. The entrance I use now is only 6'5" but the other entrance has higher (but not sure exactly what) as well as a truck entrance with super high clearances...I'd have to confirm with the parking office if my spot can be moved over there.
thx in advance
