$2500 Order Incentive, 2023 Allocation & More News - Granger Ford

[Cleveland-Native]

Can anyone tell me how to check my priority code? Is that a Ford thing or a dealer thing?

@Zach@Granger first off, thanks for the communication. Much appreciated. Do you know if the tow package is still a constraint? I took that off of my order but would like to add it back in when I revise to remove sas and lux, if it won't have any impact on my scheduling.

Granger can tell you. Email Samantha and she will let you know.

Any thoughts as a 2DR BL with SAS sitting at #21 (or higher? I don't what the latest list looks like)? I have papers from Samantha removing the SAS but I don't really want to sign if I don't have to. The $2500 is nice but I would rather just get the truck I wanted. You or anyone want to nudge me? I'm open to it because, quite frankly, I'm exhausted from all this.

Appreciate your post from Friday giving us the low-down. Appreciate your patience with me as mine is wearing thin with FoMoCo.

Hope to get a truck from your shop.

Sincerely,

Your least favorite customer.

Drop SAS, get your truck asap, put a lift and bigger tires on it and you save a ton of cash

Agreed. But that only came about later after the big dealers that avoided customers realized how much business they had lost. Broncos were supposed to be built in order of timestamp regardless of allocation...and lets not forget the original allocation formulas, which were much different than what they are now for the Bronco.

Allocation has always been part of the equation from day one. I switched my reservations early (fall of 2020) to Granger before production started. I had multiple conversations with Albert and he was very up front about the allocation issue and that Granger would have less monthly allocations than larger dealers. Granger was honest about the situation, Ford was vague (lied) in their communication to reservation holders after they realized they would have difficulty building trucks in a timely manner.

There are a lot of Wildtrack Hard Top Lux and Raptors available as dealer stock within 100 miles of Chicago. No one can order one. Anyone can buy one off the lot.

Totally agreed. They have been up front every step of the way.

I have my new order papers (removing SAS) from Samantha. I have not signed it yet but I am at ledge holding the exact thought (your logic is correct in my opinion). I am waiting for Zach's new list on Monday (why I need to see this I don't know- probably because I am so near the top of the list) and I see myself signing this week.

I’ve been anticipating the new list all day!

@Zach@Granger did I miss the updated list today?

Do tell, how did Ford all by themselves, screw this up so badly? SMH

Many months ago, FORD would receive orders that FORD can fulfil and ship them. Orders that FORD can fulfil were on hold. Anyone could put in an order and get their bronco shipped as long as parts were available. So many WT trims and 3 packages were skipped. I think this is where FORD did a bad job. Skipping orders for years that FORD can't produce but offered and offering 3 additional trims that FORD is stating they can't offer but is included in Hertirage trims and Raptor is also another problem. Telling customers what's wrong then its ok for Heritage and Raptor is the problem as well.

It's just kinda hard to stomach removing "constraints" again for the 3rd time, when every stealership I go to has loaded broncos available with dealer ordered window stickers next to a ADM sticker... I feel like only the old retail orders are subject to these "constraints". Oh well, first world problems I guess. Good luck to all, and I sincerely hope we get our Broncos!

This is what really PO's me and fuels my anger towards Ford. I'm told that I have to drop things I really want and have waited two + years for just so they can provide those desirable items to dealers and people walking in off the street.

i have zero desire to accept a bronco without sasquatch and hard top and still pay 50k plus.

I cancelled my Granger order this week. Sucks as I have patiently waited since my 7/17/20 reservation.

So i am on the hunt for dealer stock and have accepted the fact that i will be paying ADM.

2 Door or 4 Door? Skip @ [email protected]

I cancelled a 4 door badlands and purchased a raptor from a different dealer

There are WT's available on lots, if you desire to pay a ridicolous ADM and be upside down on your bronco. Financially it simply doesn't make sense. Especially the ones that are $10,000 or more ADM.

@Zach@Granger

Ford has released new information that (other than Wildtrak orders) we cannot get the $2500 offer if we switch trim levels. As a 2-door BaseManSquatch order, I cannot remove the Sasquatch and still have a rear locker without changing trim levels. So I won't qualify for the $2500 and have some questions that might help me decide if it's worth changing to a non-sas Black Diamond even though I've already waited two years for my BaseManSquatch...

1.) Does your ability to "pull forward" allocation apply to this coming month only? Or will Ford be letting you pull forward throughout 2023?

2.) Will Ford only let you pull forward allocation for orders with no constraints? Or are all 475 orders fair game?

3.) If we don't get a VIN during this big February push, does that mean we won't get one in 2023?

4.) Have you been noticing any other items (besides the big three constraints) on your customer's orders that seem to make Ford skip over them?

Thanks again, Zach, for being transparent and keeping all of us in the loop.
