Comparing Ford Rebates in 6 Cities

Car incentives can vary a lot depending on which region you live in. Due to local supply/demand situations, manufacturers are sometimes forced to offer better deals to move inventory in certain regions. This week, I'm trying something new with my data analysis - I wanted to see which regions offer the best cash-back rebates.

I took a deep dive with Ford incentives, compiling current cash back rebates on all 2017 and 2016 models in six different cities: (Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Miami, New York, San Francisco, and Seattle).

Sorry if the tables below look overwhelming, I tried to simplify things by color-coding the "good" and "bad" deals. Basically, the green ones are regions where rebates are better-than-average (light green = at least $500 more than average, dark green = at least $750 better than average, opposite for light red, and dark red).

Some interesting highlights: If you live in the Seattle area, you're not getting as good of a deal on the 2017 F-150, with average rebates of $750 LESS than the rest of the country. However, if you live in the Chicago area, rebates on the 2016 F-150 are up to $2,000 more than other areas of the country.

As always, I recommend using TrueCar No Haggle and CarsDirect to see the lowest prices your local dealers are willing to offer on these vehicles.
