Ford of Ocala Green $$$ CRedit begins Phase Out...
WASHINGTON - The tax credit for hybrid passenger automobiles and light trucks manufactured by Ford Motor Company has begun to phase out for purchases made after March 31, 2009.
Taxpayers may claim the full amount of the credit only on purchases made before April 1, 2009, because the total number of vehicles sold reached the 60,000 vehicle threshold in the last quarter of 2008. The cumulative sales of qualified Ford hybrid vehicles sold from the period of Jan. 1, 2006, to Dec. 31, 2008 is 66,157.
For vehicles purchased for use or lease on or after April 1, 2009, and on or before Sept. 30, 2009, the credit is 50 percent of the full amount. For vehicles purchased for use or lease on or after Oct. 1, 2009, and on or before March 31, 2010, the credit is 25 percent of the full amount. For vehicles purchased for use or lease on or after April 1, 2010, no credit is allowable.
The full credit amount for vehicle purchases made prior to April 1, 2009 is:
2005, 2006, 2007 Ford Escape 2WD, $2,600;
2008, 2009 Ford Escape 2WD, $3,000;
2005, 2006, 2007, 2009 Ford Escape 4WD, $1,950;

Let Ford of Ocala increase your IRS refund!
 The Fusion and Milan Hybrids have been approved by the IRS for a full tax credit of $3,400. Customers who order or purchase a Fusion or Milan Hybrid by March 31, 2009, may be eligible to claim this full tax credit. The full line of Ford Motor Company 2009 hybrid vehicles are also eligible for tax incentives up to $3000 as well. Since it is an IRS incentive plan it can be difficult to locate or understand on the www.irs.gov website. I did find an easier to locate and read page on www.fueleconomy.gov . But the easiest way is to just give us a call at (352)732-4800 and we'll be happy to help you cut through all the red tape!

Ford's Newest Hybrid will Outperform Imports!!
Fighting the long-held perception that much of the technology in their company's first "full"-hybrid system for the Escape hybrid SUV was bought or licensed from Toyota, executives and engineers at Ford were crystal-clear during this week's media preview of the all-new hybrid architecture for the company's upcoming Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan hybrid sedans: Everything, they said, was designed by Ford in North America.The new hybrid system is "100 percent Ford technology; 100 percent Ford design, invented right here in North America," said Nancy Gioia, Ford Motor Co.'s director of sustainable mobility technologies and hybrids. She and other engineers say every major component was developed under Ford engineering.In detailing the key components, engineers said they stressed an interdisciplinary approach that helped optimize all components for maximum system efficiency. The process developed several intriguing new components and advances, they said.Labels: 2010 Fusion, Ford Hybrids, ford of ocala, green cars
