Default Re: '08 FEH Federal Tax Credit Question

I understand that the first 60,000 hybrid vehicles from a manufacturer qualify (tiered amounts apply at different levels). How do I know the production number of my '08 FEH after I get it - does Ford let you know this?
Here's a link with some useful info on the FEH and vehicles sold:
http://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/tax_hybrid.shtml

It has a link to the IRS form you'll need to file. As of Dec 06, Ford had sold 22,156 qualifying Escapes.

You should also look into state incentives for alternative fuel cars to see if you're entitled to something:
