Nice order! I was towards the top of their list but pushed to '22 due to my options. This will be my first time working with them. Sounds like they're fairly easy to deal with?
Not entirely sure why someone would want to buy Ford stock but I suppose it makes sense if you just want to own it to say you have a stake in the company or you're buying such a high volume that if it moves up to $20 you can sell and make a healthy profit. At $0.15/dividend you can find much...
Ha- My guess is it'd be $150-$200 per day. I've used Turo twice and had poor experiences. Both were several years ago but one instance had the car's battery dying mid-intersection and the other had expired plates which caused me to get pulled over on my way to the airport. Ever since then I...
I haven't had time to read through all the replies but if you're worried about going longer without a vehicle, have you looked at a subscription option? Volvo offers a few options for a monthly rate. https://www.volvocars.com/us/care-by-volvo/ I believe it includes all maintenance and...
Didn't Warren Buffet, for the longest time, own and drive a Honda? A lot of well-off individuals avoid new cars like the plague b/c there's zero financial sense to buying a new vehicle if your current one doesn't need replacing. If you're financially able to make the purchase without...
@Mr Smith Don't quote me but I think that disclaimer is just to let you know that you can only test-drive the Sport but the full-size Bronco will still be there to check out and sit in.
@rainman23 My pleasure! I was trying all different combinations to find an area dealer/location and never thought to try "PDX." When I registered this morning there still looked to be slots open for all of both days that they'll be at the Moda Center.
Re-posting for the group the PNW-specific Roadshow sites that @chownd was nice enough to put together. Here's the Portland and Seattle links below for registration. From what I've heard, if you plan on bringing a friend/partner/spouse then they have to register as well...
I just received a call from my dealer in Beaverton, OR. They're one of the larger dealers in the Portland area. He wasn't aware of the Roadshow. I did ask him about any test vehicles/mannequins and he confirmed they're expecting a 2DR Badlands (2.3L) and a 4DR Wildtrak (2.7L) some time in...
Wish they would make you enter your reservation number in order to schedule since the non-reservation holders likely won't be able to get one till '23. Nonetheless, thanks for sharing the tool!
I don't see anything around Portland, OR/Vancouver, WA yet but will keep checking throughout the...
Ford would do well to try and get as many Bronco “mannequins” in dealerships around the country to keep the level of excitement high. Perhaps more off-road, ride-along events as well. I don’t mind waiting another year as it means I can put down a 50-75% down payment but my wife will not be as...
Do you have an email that you can share? I haven't received anything (I'm also in Oregon). Just seems a bit odd that this is your first post. Although there are reports today ( https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/ford-mustang-mach-e-delay-customers/ ) of the Mach-E being delayed up to an...
I have leather in my current CX-5 and regularly tote around our 90lb dog. Once a year I buy a new dog cover (~$30) from Amazon and I've never had an issue with scratches or scrapes. He's always moving around, window-to-window, so it's not like he's stationary, either. I plan on OBX w/leather...
It's a valid point but I can't imagine a dealership would want to take the blow to their reputation and lose long-term customers for parts/service. I'm sure there will be some cases like this with behind-closed-doors deals being made with customers (that don't have a reservation) that approach...
To each their own but at least everything matched and looked cohesive. I know some don't care about the interior but if I'm spending $55-$60k on a car I don't want it to look like peyote-induced kindergartner designed it.
Been watching a few lengthy video reviews of the Mach-E (should've never been branded a Mustang) and they're actually quite positive. Only wish the same people that designed the interior of the Mach-E had a say in the Bronco. Still wish they'd release that Filson interior. I'd pay $2-$3k just...
4) I agree. I've read quite a bit about the telluride and there seems to be one common "complaint" with it not having enough power. I also want to see a full-digital instrument display.
5) Also agree. The whole interior needs a complete rehaul, too. It very much looks like it's age in every way.
I've got a handful the wife and I are considering:
1) 2022 Redesigned Grand Cherokee
2)Tesla Model Y or possibly the Cybertruck
3)Genesis GV70
4)Kia Telluride
5)If Toyota releases a heavily re-designed/updated 4runner then we may consider
If we go with a non-EV car this time I think it'll be...

Unless you're lucky enough to live near one of the Bronco events I think you'll be out of luck. My understanding is that all dealer allocation will go to owners and that there won't just be Broncos sitting around for people to drive, let alone just sit in. If your reservation is late...
