Sorry, I think I responded to the wrong post. :)
Chip is the guy I was directed to at Granger Ford. Chip said dealers do not know how many reservations they will receive nor what your place in line is. I have messaged Albert to see if this is correct.
I asked Granger earlier today, in fact. Chip said they had no idea, and that dealers do not know. He said that only Ford knows this info. Yes, I know that conflicts with what some others are saying. I am just relaying what Granger told me today.
"Nirvana" is a strong term, from my perspective. There's also no EV or hybrid model at this time and no power top on any models. I still love the Bronco, but remember... it's still just a vehicle.
Looks like a bad dealer to me. Don't reward the vultures in this industry. Reward the ones that are giving discounts. If I really had to pay $10k over MSRP, then the Bronco isn't the vehicle for me.
Selling price "dictated by Ford." I wonder if that's going to turn out to be accurate. If all the prices are actually the same, that'll negate the nice deals that Granger and Laura Ford are offering.
