It's a dealership in Washington, you can find the deal he's referencing under the "Incentives" tab, then about 1/2 down the page.
Dude, you're on it! I googled "Ford $750 Amazon Card" and didn't get anything. I wonder if location is a factor.

Yeah, I just got it from a dealer's website like you did. It is legit. I've already entered the info into Amazon's website and the money is there. Hummm, now what to spend it on?????

I just bought my truck last week and they didn't say anything about this gift card. Maybe I'll call my salesman later this week.

I was able to get $4250 in rebates. $3000 was the regular rebate, $500 was the Auto Show bonus rebate, and $750 was some kind of owner's loyalty rebate I qualified for. He looked up my name and address in their system and found that I qualified for that $750 rebate.

Edit: Based on that dealer website posted above, it looks like my $750 was the Targeted Direct Mail bonus cash, I remember getting a $750 coupon rebate in the mail a few weeks back but I threw it away because I didn't think I was buying then. But how quickly I changed my mind!

LOL, same here. But mine was still in the trash, just had to fish for it. And then I got another one about a week ago in the mail. The first one had my mother's name on it for some reason(I've lived here for almost 20 years and she has NEVER lived here, so no idea how that happened), this one had my name, but dealer didn't care either way.

What is the Auto Show Bonus? Is this for everyone or a targeted few? I do have the $750 coupon plus the 3K. An extra $500 would be nice. And the Amazon card, of course!

They had the new car auto show going on in the Pittsburgh convention center, so Ford kept advertising on our local TV about an extra $500 auto show bonus through the end of February I think. Maybe they did this when the auto show went through other major cities too, I don't know?

well, of course my salesman knew nothing about this gift card. So I guess I have to wait and see if one shows up in my mail.

Oh, I'm sure I'll get the "deer in the headlight look". They didn't seem to happy when I gave them my X-Plan PIN. Granted it's only a hundred or so off invoice, but one stipulation is they can't charge you anything extra, other than a max of $75 doc fee.

for those who already got a gift card, can you go to this website and select 2009 F150 and enter your zip code and see if the gift card offer is listed:

http://www.fordvehicles.com/incentives/offers/


I emailed Ford about the gift card offer and they told me to check that website to see what offers apply to my area. Well, when I enter my zip code, nothing comes up about the gift card.

Yeah, ^ that's the first place I checked, and nothing. I also entered in the zip code of the dealership in Washington where I found the info online, and it didn't come up for that zip either. Also, I saw that 04xtlsc is in Columbus, OH, and I tried a zip from there also to no avail. (sorry dude, not trying to be a stalker, just trying to figure out how to get 750 bones )

So don't lose hope, I'm pretty sure whatever deal this is is NOT on the Ford's public website incentives page. Anybody have the time/motivation to call that dealership in Washington to try and figure out what the deal is? Their # is: 877-326-8280

I just called Ford and they stated I was "selected" to receive the Amazon offer. Did you know about this offer while purchasing your truck? Should I call my dealer and ask when I will be receiving mine? I bout my truck on 2/25/09.

Thanks

^did you call Ford corporate customer service or what? What number did you call and/or the extension? Did you have to provide your VIN number or were they able to look up your info just by your name?

I called 800-392-3673 and asked if I qualified. They just used my name and address. I am a little worried that this should have been brought up during the purchase of the truck. However, they did say to call my dealership. I will let you know how it goes...

^I just tried that number but they are closed for today, I'll call tomorrow.

as I stated a few posts above, I did call my dealer/salesman and they knew nothing about it.
