WELCOME TO THE FORD X-PLAN?
Everyone loves the feeling of getting into a brand new car and driving off the lot, but a lot of people don't want to go through the pricing issues. With so much information about pricing on the internet, from so many different sources, it can be overwhelming to try to understand what is a fair price and what is not. Fortunately, for employees of select partners of Ford Motor Company, this process is made simple through the Ford X-Plan partner recognition program. At Coggin Deland Ford, we often find that employees of these select partner companies are not aware of the pricing benefits that they are entitled to based on their employment with a Ford Motor Company Partner. Throughout this article, we will briefly explore X-Plan pricing, eligibility and benefits.
What is Ford X-Plan?
X-Plan is preferred (invitation only) new vehicle pricing that is offered to select employees business partners of Ford Motor Company. X-Plan pricing is valid towards the purchase or lease of most new Ford vehicles.

What companies get X Plan pricing?
Currently, there are nearly 3,400 partner companies that qualify for employee X-Plan pricing. This list is constantly changing based on new and dissolved relationships between Ford Motor Company and their partners. Because of the changing nature of these relationships, there is no central list that you can access to check your eligibility, so it is best to contact your dealer to have them check for you. At Coggin Deland Ford, we often assist employees of the following companies (currently or previously eligible) with X-Plan pricing: Bose, Raytheon, IBM, Cisco, Monster.com, EMC, Boston Scientific, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), State Street Financial, Fresenius Medical, Liberty Mutual, Saint Gobain, The Math Works and many other large local employers. If you aren't sure if your company qualifies, your HR benefits coordinator may also have some information on this program.
How much is X-Plan going to save me on a new vehicle purchase?
X-Plan savings vary from vehicle to vehicle, however they generally remain constant as percentage of the vehicle cost. To help illustrate this point, lets take a look at an example. Below is a image that shows the dealer invoice for a Ford F-150. Because X-Plan buyers often qualify for rebates in addition to their X-Plan pricing, we have included rebates in our example for this truck. As you can see below, the X Plan price is very close to dealer invoice. With the application of rebates, this particular example saved nearly $8,000 off MSRP and only $141 more than dealer invoice. To be transparent, due to the high level of rebates and the discount package on the MSRP, this is one of the better savings available through X-Plan. However, on average, X plan buyers will receive significant savings from MSRP.
