If it isnât signed by both parties, it is not binding. Whether they will honor the price quoted or not, I donât know - but if you donât have a copy with their signed acceptance of offer, you have no leg to stand on should you need to contest anything down the road.
Given Fordâs track record on keeping promises, coupled with how dire the situation is⊠draw your own conclusions.
In the end, MSRP is just that / Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price. There are a lot of charges that get piled on top of MSRP when it comes to sale price, not all of them from the...
I am involved in the production and sales of Industrial Equipment. That is in fact what I have been doing for 22 years now. 2021 has been a roller coaster like no other: with prices of steel and copper and aluminum and freight and electronics jumping in price monthly. This is absolutely...
You are absolutely rightâŠ. And I will one up you:
I donât think their thicker plastic layer and rolled seams are going to fix their hard top problems. Not the rattles and not the wear and not the shedding headliner. They have an engineering problem. They were so stuck on fixing a âJeep...
Just an update of sorts; my new Jeep Wrangler Unlimited was delivered tonight by the dealer! They drove it three hours to my house (thatâs one way), no charge! Filled âer up and got me everything I need to get out there. It has been an Awesome experience, and I canât recommend the dealer...
Well, we certainly know there are more than âcosmetic issuesâ with the hard tops. Cosmetics donât cause squeaks, rattles, holes, wear to the seals and shedding headliners.
By all the published metrics, Ford was âhit worstâ by the semiconductor chip shortage. I put âhit worstâ in quotation marks because this wording implies there is a random factor involved here in exactly how each automaker has had their production impactedâŠ. But all automakers around the world...
Ford owns this. There is a rumour that Ford demanded cost cutting be done on their roof design. Per said rumour Webasto was told to take 30% of the plastics out of the build, against their advice.
Cost cutting screws the customer; you always get what you pay for.
I hear you on that. I actually asked my salesman if he could find me a used Wrangler or work with a Jeep dealer so he could still get a sale. He was extremely discouraged with Ford, and he has been in sales there for many years⊠and is waiting on his own Badlands.
I work in Sales myself, and making a sale requires a relationship built on integrity and trust. Bottom line, a person who doesnât trust you will NOT give you their hard earned money. The impacts of this roll out failure can impact every model under the Blue Oval. Is FoMoCo listening?
I heard Ford announced buyouts for senior production staff, aiming for more of their infamous âcost cuttingâ. You would think theyâd have slaked their thirst for that by now, given the CF this âroll outâ has been to date.
Sorry, this was a prediction at the time (based on the MIC issues). I didnât follow MY22 updates yesterday, all I know is there are a couple of new colors (another red and a green).
I cancelled my order this week and was promptly refunded my deposit. I received my VIN in April and was delayed 5x already from June to July to August to September to âf#%âŹin as soon as we feel like itâ.
Honestly, as emotionally invested as I was in the Bronco, I checked Jeep dealers...
Having had my build delayed 5x, and without any particular end to delays in sight, I went ahead and bought a 2021 Wrangler JL Islander. Consequently I have up for grabs some gorgeous steel custom-made chrome and enamel finished â55th Anniversary Editionâ Bronco badges. If you are one of the...
My advice to all, for what it is worth: with the shortages, prices are only going up - as are finance rates. If you need a vehicle or a price, buy now. Donât wait.
