Can someone explain dealer holdback on commercial ford f150 2024?
so, i was at the dealership last week looking at a 2024 F150 for my biz. the sales guy mentioned dealer holdback like it’s some secret sauce but i was kinda lost, you know? i mean, what does that even mean? they said it’s money that the manufacturer gives to the dealer after the sale. it’s like a rebate but for them, i guess, kinda fishy if you ask me.
but then i started thinkin, is that why they can negotiate so much? like, if they get that cash back, do they really lose money selling low? and how does that even impact the price we see, right? i just wanna make sure i’m not gettin played or somethin.
and honestly, if holdback is a thing, does that mean i can ask for more discounts? i’m all for a good deal. if someone could break this down
I remember when I bought my F150 last year in California. The dealer mentioned something about holdback but didn’t explain much. It’s like a secret stash they get after the sale right? I’ve heard it can be a couple thousand bucks. Kinda makes you wonder how much wiggle room there really is on pricing. Dealerships are sneaky sometimes. But hey if you negotiate well maybe it won’t matter.
so I bought a 2022 f150 in Michigan and dealer holdback is kinda confusing like it sounds like magic money for dealers I’ve heard they get a percentage back from Ford after the sale so they can play with prices but why not tell us upfront right? I’ve been in this loop too long.
I remember when I bought my F150 in Ohio dealer holdback was super confusing at first but I found out its just some cash the dealer gets back after selling the truck so they can negotiate.
But honestly it felt kind of sneaky when I was negotiating like they had this secret stash of money I didn’t know about. Just something to keep in mind for anyone looking to buy
I ve been down this road in Texas trying to figure out the dealer holdback stuff for the F150. Its like a secret handshake and dealers won’t spill the beans on it. Just feels like a hidden cost making it all complicated.
i’ve heard dealer holdback can be like hidden money for dealers to play with I got my F150 in Texas and they were pretty hush hush about it seems like a sneaky way to keep prices up but what do I know lol
I remember when I got my first F150 in Texas dealer holdback was a bit confusing then but it basically helps dealers make money on sales. It’s like a cushion for them to keep prices down.
I’ve been eyeing the 2024 F150 for a while now living in Ohio and dealer holdback is kind of a mystery. I thought it was just some secret fund for dealers to play with. Turns out it’s basically a way for them to stay afloat when sales are tough. Makes me wonder how much wiggle room we really have when negotiating. It’s a wild game in the car world these days.
I’ve always been curious about dealer holdback. Some say it’s just a hidden profit for dealers.
I remember when I bought my F150 in Texas last year and the dealer was super vague about it. It felt a bit sketchy to me honestly.
But hey if it helps them with inventory costs or whatever that’s cool I guess. Just wish they were more upfront you know.
I’ve been checking into dealer holdback for the F150 since I live in Ontario last summer I thought it was just a sneaky way to boost profits but it seems there’s more to it. Gotta love the complexities.
I’ve been diving into F150s lately in Texas and dealer holdback feels like a secret code among dealers. It’s that hidden cash they get back after selling a truck which seems so unfair sometimes. Like wait why are they keeping extra money when we just spent ours. It’s such a wild concept in the car buying world.
The whole dealer holdback thing is wild I remember buying my F150 last year in Michigan and feeling confused about all the hidden costs.
Had no clue they get a chunk back from Ford after selling it like some secret gift.
It’s kinda shady if you ask me but at the same time that’s the game. Just wish it was more transparent ya know
