It is up to Volvo to name it. So they named pull ahead a “koala”, but it is a Volvo incentive (bear)
No one has a friggin clue what your point is or was.
A conquest is a conquest is a conquest. Doesn’t matter what name the marketing dept pulls out of their behind.
Ok, let me explain to you.
- The “pull ahead” for other brands was from $0 to $4,500, based on the lease payments left. Conquest is ALWAYS a set amount.
- The “pull ahead” was for ANY (I think) lease, while “conquest” is for a few specified brands.
Get it now? So again, you can call it whatever your want, but these are two different programs that Volvo had/has. Both are “bear”, but different kind.
Pull ahead from a competitor, yes.
No, you just made that up. Conquest can be under any terms the captive wants it to be … for any amount or any brand
I’m talking exclusively about Volvo here. You felt the need to chime in with some generic stuff? I guess Volvo had a reason to call it “pull ahead” to separate it from regular conquest, but one can consider it a conquest if they want to.
To fool people who didn’t know better?
No idea how is offering a program that is way better than standard conquest is fooling people. But anyway, I only responded to and corrected the statement below to which @jeisensc responded with conquest = “pull ahead”
Sometimes they do, that’s all
BTW, conquest doesn’t require a current lease (can be financed car), but pull ahead specifically required current lease.

I stand corrected. On behalf of both Volvo of America’s Marketing Department and myself, we are pleased to offer you this opportunity to be right today.

I don’t remember the specific program you mentioned, so I apologize. I did some searching on search engines and WBM, and every reference I found with Volvo and Pull Ahead Only mentions current Volvo leases. Pull Ahead and Conquest (both phrases together) mention a specific list of brands you must be leasing to be eligible. I see them for S60s and S90s. I looked at other brands and could not find a pull-ahead lease program that was a true pull-ahead and crossed manufacturers. Maybe I’m not looking for the right thing?

I will do better to carve out all exceptions and make fewer generalizations going forward.

All this for my gentle correction and underlining the point that you were mostly correct in your post? ![]()
Do some searching here, around 2017, the fall, I think lol
Or maybe not, since you may find something that totally contradicts me ![]()
I had checked there too.
Twice. And your point was about completeness as much as correctness so you got both.
And since you keep tabs on me I was right here, with you, giving you what you wanted most:
You can be right @ursus even when you’re wrong.
Guys/gals. It’s the quarantine. Let’s just agree to disagree.
Huh? We all love each other here.
Interspecies love, even.
Bats and bears working together for the good of tightwads everywhere.

Don’t forget us kind-hearted robots 

Pull ahead is available only for leases? Like, what if I’m trying to get out of a finance
Then you have to sell your car.
A manufacturer is not just going to buy your car. If you have negative equity in the car, you can either settle that with the bank you financed from or negotiate with the dealer to get that rolled into a new car. Be careful with this, as you should know the deal on the new car and your car before inquiring.
