Update on University Ford in Durham, NC: Just went and met with a sales manager named Dan. Told him I am X Plan eligible and he says they "are not accepting that initially."
Just fyi, the X-plan caps the fees at $100 and you can tell them not to do the extra dealer installed things. I'm still up in the air. I'm originally from WV so I'm tempted to go up there, drive another 2 hours north to visit family then back. I'll have to wait until the official pricing...
Rumor has it that Velocity Blue is a late availability color. Does this mean that it can be ordered in December, just late delivery or will we have to wait to order? Either way, how much of a delay?

Just copied and pasted from the Ford Partner site:
Document Fees
Dealers will be permitted to assess up to $100 in documentary fees on each delivery to an eligible purchaser under the terms of the Plan, unless otherwise provided by state or local laws or regulation. Each dealer is responsible...
Agree 100%. I have no problem giving a refundable deposit for a vehicle I have seen and driven. At this point, I'm skeptical if we'll even see the paint colors in real life before ordering opens.
Look for the Maryland Volume Buyers Group thread. There are a few of us from NC in there. We are trying to get dealerships to work with us on a similar deal. There's a finance person from one in MD that's about 4 1/2 hours from Raleigh that's in the group and working on something. I'd do...
