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

[AZ_Liberty]

At this point I need to see where I'm at on the Granger list. If I'm under maybe 75, I might roll the dice on BD Sas because I loved sasquatch at Moab. If I'm not I probably should just drop sasquatch, get the $2500 and buy wheels/tires with it.

Everyone loves the stock black steelies. You can sell your stock BD wheels and buy some Sasquatch take-offs and only be out around $800 out of that $2500.

Plus you get the $6080 from dropping the Sasquatch in addition to the $2500 incentive. (unless you are ordering an automagic for some reason, in which case it's $1600 less)

Totally agree, and I'm definitely not trying to beat them up (hope it doesn't come across that way!). I'm sure they're as frustrated as anyone while attempting to navigate these murky waters for hundreds of potentially emotional buyers.

And, I certainly understand them not putting out any kind of "official" statement without somehow verifying fully first. They're obviously at the mercy of @Ford Motor Company and their complete ineptitude at clear and concise communication...

Yeah, i just wanted address how Granger is basically in the same boat as all of us yesterday/today. What a shitty thing for Ford to do. They have departments built to understand all of this before putting these statement out to the public. And we’ve seen time after time their massaging has failed. Ford mothership should get roasted along with their shady dealers gouging customers.

Thanks for not taking my post the wrong way. I Just wanted to go to bat for Samantha. She’s doing the best she can with the shit sandwich that has been made for them.

Agree - the math is coming together that I'm going to just go with dropping sas and buying a wheel setup that works for me. Would have liked it all to be neat and tidy from the factory, but for $6k it just doesn't pencil out.

Man who would have thought in 2020 we'd be here in 2023 stressing about our builds still...

In case it helps anyone, I asked Samantha: Does price protection hold if I change from Black Diamond to Badlands or does that go away?

"Price protection does, but the additional $2500 with the information gathered today , may disqualify you from receiving that."

@Zach@Granger mentioned previously your PP is an amount based on your order at they time. So no matter the trim, you get that dollar value in PP.

Side note: every dealer I called in Houston today has 10k-20k ADM now, so really glad I can save that $2,500 by cancelling.

My biggest issue is being handcuffed with an original BaseSquatch order. The online build tool literally cannot/will not allow one to remove SAS and manually add back in full-time 4WD and rear lockers. Infuriating. I don't mind as much going aftermarket for a leveling kit and wheels/tires (if I could leverage the $2,500 rebate), but the other stuff seems to be a lot more expensive and complex to cobble together. Okay, I'm done complaining for today.

I'm curious as to why you would recommend the BD over the BL. Can your elaborate? I'm interested in your opinion especially since you own a BL.

I typed that assuming that switching to Badlands doesn’t qualify for the $2500 rebate. Not worth it. Take the rebate. The times I will absolutely need front lockers and sta-bar disconnect will be rare.
I bought the Badlands because I wanted MGV, washout floors, manual transmission and mid package. Having the rest of the Badlands goodies was just a bonus.

Thank you, I agree with you. If he's already in the BD and could keep the $2500 by staying on the BD but lose it on the BL, that makes sense. I'd probably even forgo the mid-package. One thing you can get, of course, with BL, in addition to the Sway Bar disconnect are the cameras on the high package. But, if he had BD before, he wasn't going to get those anyway. I'm not personally a fan of the BD black wheels, but, for $2500, you can get something nice there.

I'm just so glad Ford made everything perfectly clear last Tuesday.

And clarified any confusion this Tuesday....right?

Here's some f'd up news, according to Long McArthur's YouTube show, when order banks open up - up to 20% WildTrak orders, 55% Sasquatch, and 59% hard top orders will be allocated to them at that time.

If that extends to all dealers, that's a big F U to reservation holders AGAIN.

So, thanks @Ford Motor Company.

What? @Ford Motor Company is going to keep ignoring early reservation holders like they've been doing all along? Who could see that coming?

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.

Yes, you should be pissed. FORD should be ashamed. They have dishonored all of us. There is no other spin on this point. It was purposeful. FORD is lying. And you will see plenty of walk-ins get nicely appointed builds this summer.

I wonder if this latest fire drill has amped up demand for dealer stock even more. As people are calling dealers like you just did. Given how the 24 allocations are being pulled into 23 for some dealers, the Bronco market may not normalize until at least 2025.

Good news is that your trim, you can just drop packages while retaining your agreed price. However, my WT order, the price will be at whatever 2023 price is since I have to cancel the WT to get OB, BL, BD, etc. I now have to paid retain and rebate just covers increased cost and not getting what i ordered that had all 4 restraints. All 4 that i placed an order (WT-SAS,LUX,MIC) will now be removed.
