Tread Lightly PSA

[Raptor2RHO]

Got the call today from MD that my truck arrived today. Submitted my Tread Lightly AR Code and email to get the extra $750 off. I joined back in January, so I knew I was good with the 30 day minimum membership to get the discount. However, I was informed that if I used the Tread Lightly code, I would lose my other rebates I locked in when I ordered in December. I was under the impression that this was stackable with my other rebates, but I misunderstood.

@rhinonow explains it clearly below in his post. Just wanted to give a heads up so someone else didn’t make the same dumb mistake I did.

MD and the other dealerships here have stressed that it’s sort of a two bucket system, and that we can only pull from one of the two. Either the rebates at the time of order, or the rebates at the time of pickup.

What rebates did you lock in back in December? Asking as some of the rebates would be the same. The holiday bonus cash was $1000 which has been rebranded to like the start something new $1000 so still the same deal. If you had the conquest from Ford, that would be difficult since they got rid of that one and replaced it with a newer one.

Yes, I’m aware of all of that, but the AR code from Tread Lightly is supposed to be stackable. I am locked on the $2000 Ford Conquest and the two additional $1000 rebates from RAM (pop up and holiday bonus cash).

I’m not complaining at all. I’m happy as hell to be getting $14,000 off my truck. I just hadn’t seen anyone else that’s run into this, and wanted to put it out there. I thought the only stipulation was the membership for 30 days. I didn’t know you couldn’t take advantage of it if you joined after you had placed your order. That’s all.

I thought for sure Anthony and others have said those pop up ones do not work. He said you can inject RHO into the area where they have TRX and it’s excluded.

You can take advantage of it if you joined after, that is what I’ve taken from the dealerships posts. I myself joined after. And in that case it does stack as well, but it’ll stack with the rebates available during pickup, not the ones that were available during ordering. They say you can’t combine rebates from the 2 buckets. It’s strictly one or the other.

That makes sense as you explained it. I’m obviously not going to give up $4000 in rebates that I have locked in. I still can’t really believe what a smoking deal these trucks are with the huge discount and the rebates. I come from the Raptor world, so these kinds of discounts are foreign to me.

Sounds like this is all understood well & good at this point - and this is what is great about forums!

Strange seeing a post stay on topic and not derail into a hot mess dumpster fire.

What I was talking about is the pop up coupons with different codes on them. Those are not available for use for the RHO or TRX. If I understood Anthony correctly. After all, he does see this from the dealership end and knows if they do/don’t work. If it’s different now then great. I’ve got 2 on my desk waiting for my truck in a week or 2.

Damn, looks like I overlooked that too. I applied and received my Tread Lightly affiliate, but like you I won't apply it since it will remove my other locked in rebates, conquest and bonus cash.

They did work for the RHO once upon a time. Codes generated before February. So if you locked in the code from back then when you ordered, it’ll take $1000 off your order.
