Awesome update thanks!

Awesome feedback everyone thanks. And kmaluo this is my exact fear with leaving the car at a 40% charge. I have a pregnant wife God forbid I wasn't able to get to her in an emergency because I was purposefully trying to maintain a low charge level. Also, I get the "It's hot outside plug your...

Sorry for the marketing lead in, I don't have any, I'm hoping the bright folks on this forum will chime in. I'm 2 weeks into my '14 FFE ownership and loving it. I live in Phoenix, nuff said. It's very hot, day and night for 4 months out of the year. The thermal management system (TMS) is one...

Does anyone know how to get just the LED 'eyebrow' strip to come on whenever the car is 'on'? Like the newer Ford Escapes do for example?

The Ford site shows that the 11k rebate on leases ends July 7, really curious what kind of incentives/deals will be available post July 7 especially once the '15s start hitting the lot. Either way glad I got mine already.

I know I'm not paying registration (that line items read N/A). As for CA taxes, they said they used my Zip to calc taxes. Question for you all - what about title fees which are $296 on this contract. Would I also be responsible for that in AZ, or do they need those fees because they are...

Hybridbear, It's North County Ford in Vista, CA. I will tell you this, I was dealing with a salesperson that was helpful, honest and quick to respond - William. We started talking on a Thursday and by Saturday he informed me that he would be leaving the dealership to go to another (He went back...

YES. Hate dealing with dealers because even when you have the "wow I got one of the GOOD sales guys, honest, trying to get me the best deal" etc there's always that thing in the back of your head telling you there's a catch and it's just waiting to show its ugly head. In any case yes that is...

This is supposed to be a "$0 down" lease. Am I missing something? So 47% is reasonable for a 10,500mi lease, what is ideal residual for a 12k mi lease? On the fence as I currently drive about 9500 mi/year.

Awesome deal Max! When you can get it for that a purchase does make sense. Congrats! Sorry to beat this horse but I have few more questions that I'd really appreciate some feedback on. Firs time leasing, anyone see anything in the attached worth questioning? Once I give the green light they...

No reg since I'll be doing that in AZ. License fees are $296 but appear to be in the itemized breakdown for rebate (like they're paying it). I'll post contract screenshot tonight. Yes az tax included. 0 down AND they're paying first payment.

Thanks v_traveller! So after replies from this board and talking to a current FFE leasee/friend, I'm doin it. Ice Storm Blue with leather. I told them if they add tint I'll do the deal today, they said deal. I will have to arrange transport via a shipping company which looks like it will cost...

Thanks! SoCal dealer still telling me that I'd have to come in and sign docs. I have no desire to go to CA just for this. Anyone done this before?

Updated deal! - - - - 2014 Ford Focus 5 Door Hatch Electric with Leather MSRP = $37050.00 Sell price $1000 under invoice with Costco Program Monthly = $267 per month (tax included) Zero Down (sounds like we are making your 1st payment - you will leave owing only 35 payments) Residual = $15,931...

I'm in Phoenix AZ and there are zero FFE in the state, so I looked at SoCal which has an abundance and started considering the possibilities. One dealer there is working with me, a certified Costco program dealer, and is honoring the Costco auto program deal which is $1000k under invoice. So the...
