Ford Power Promise Program - Will Ford include the Fathom?

Thoughts??

No idea at this stage, but that was an incentive added to get you to buy an EV as the market softened. If they get a ton of early orders, then why bother?

If Ford does the volume they are hoping to I could see them backpedaling on this. I hope the program is available if / when I buy mine

When you want 100,000 orders, incentives in a tight market for retail sales may make a difference.

This would be a good incentive. Current EV owners likely need to upgrade their charger to NACS to avoid using an adapter, and non-EV owners will need one anyway

When I leased my Lightning, they offered $500 credit or the Power Promise. I took the $500 off my lease total and bought an Emporia refurbished charger for $372 and wired it in myself. Money ahead. But I prefer DIY methods.

Do some research on the third party that Ford used for this and some of the quotes and shortfalls that arose from this program.

I've had my Emporium EVSE for about 4 years. It has worked flawlessly.
I doubt I would replace it just to avoid using an adapter.

Admittedly I'm influenced that way because the next EVSE I buy will likely cost more than what the Emporium cost me. About double, in fact.
