I was told that they can not lock in the rebates. I was told that you have to take delivery of the vehicle within that time period. It is because they are trying to get vehicles off of the lots so those are the ones the incentives are for. I asked my dealer if I could pay for the thing 2 days before it showed up just to lock in the incentives and he said we couldn't do that. Anyway, I might be able to get it cheaper from the super high pressure dealerships near by that have been hounding me, but they would have to locate one with the options I want and do a dealer trade. I think I would rather spend $500 more for the one that will only be driven by us and to work with this salesman who puts 0 pressure on us and keeps ordering the configuration we want without requiring anything from us. He has been great, so I guess I'll just have to be okay with paying a little more. Besides, the high pressure guys that claimed they would match the price I could have gotten on the one in June when incentives were better are probably full of crap and will have some extra fee on it when it shows up. I also have to commit to buy for them to do the dealer trade.
