I have been emailing with the online consultant at Ford Country in Henderson, NV (Las Vegas Valley). Initially, she indicated that Ford Country will be sticking with their current meet or beat policy that they use at the dealership. There are 3 dealers around me, and she was the first to, initially, indicate that they wouldn't do ADM's or addendums. The remaining dealers did not know at the time, pre-reservation opening, what pricing they would use. I decided to put my reservation in with Ford Country, for my FE, 4 door based on the limited information I had.

We have now had 2 more email exchanges, the first one indicated that they do not know exact pricing, but would not be adding any markups or addendums. She also said that they will have a $29 titling fee, and $499 doc fee. That sounded pretty good to me, until about 2 hours later with the follow up email.

She wrote back and said "Quick followup to my initial response: It looks like the Bronco pricing will not be blanket, so I can't comment as of yet how our dealership is planning on handling it."
then,
"Apologies"

I would say, for now, Ford Country, Henderson, NV, is uncertain, but leaning towards the potential of marking up their sales/deliveries of the Bronco. She also will not comment on X-plan pricing. The management is still trying to figure out pricing.

I know there is a lot of confusion and uncertainty at dealers right now, but it is usually within the initial moments of confusion where an individual or groups true spirits show. I don't think I will be basing my business with a company that initially goes straight to gouging a client base, who they probably have the potential to make more money off of accessories and servicing than on the initial sale of the Bronco.

Edited for forgetting about X plan

Could I afford a $10k markup? Sure. Would I ever pay it? Not under any circumstances. There are other options out there, and I would consider that a considerable insult for a dealer to think I am a sucker for him to make an *extra* $10,000 off of. No way. Not to mention, it sets a bad precedent for dealers to think they can do that.
Thank you for your opinion. So you do not see the first edition as being a collectors item down the road where it will sell for more even if you pay the ADM?

You can’t move your reservation. If you want to change dealers you must cancel your reservation per Ford. I have already called and did a follow up call just to make sure. Can’t change dealer.
I believe someone on another thread has already moved their reservation. Not sure if customer service is up to date. I would try calling back next week for a update. The dealers near me both said they would have alot more information in the coming week. My fingers crossed we can move reservations as it's the only way to prevent the shady dealers from taking advantage of the loyal folks that have given $100 to Ford in good faith.

We were told by Ford that customers WILL be able to change their dealership.

This is what I am hoping for, as I think I made my reservation with a dealer that I will not be keeping, if we can transfer.

I would guess mostly through volume. Plus, they likely get incentives from Ford when they hit certain sales goals. This dealer shows a 3.7 out of 5 rating, so a good but not great reputation.
Where are you getting our reputation score from?

You will be able to change dealers on the order.

That would be great, don’t see how that will happen. If you have a thread where this happened or an example please let me know.

200k orders or 200k RSVP? How many of those will convert into orders?
With the number of members reserving more than one as a safety net, you could probably knock at least 5% off that total. Then another 10% for whatever reason they change their minds. I placed a reservation for an Outer Banks and it starts about $40k. I know by the time I build it, the price will exceed $50k. That fact may change a lot of minds.

That would be great. You work at Granger? I was told by Ford customer service I won’t be able to.

Dealers usually have long established policies in place for things like this. If they hesitate, it suggests they want to try and screw the customer if they can.

Ford sent out communication today that they will allow reservation switching among dealers.
