Not being disrespectful - I sympathize with everything you say and agree Ford has conducted itself as a complete shitbag company. However, your post also points out why Ford just doesn't care...you will bail on the reservation they can't/won't fill anyhow but then come back to papa Ford in a few...
Does anyone have experience with Brandon Ford? MSRP or ADM for Broncos? Communication? Particular salesperson?
It is my understanding we will be able to switch dealers now that we have to reorder for MY22 so considering my options.
Thanks in advance!
100% THIS! The "free market" references all over this board are absurd. Free market would likely result in most Broncos for the first few years being exported to the middle east.
Not saying dealers don’t do it or a lot of other shady stuff. Seems counter to the program for a dealer with a demo to refuse test drives on a vehicle intended for test drives. Whatever, enjoy your Bronco.
I’d love to see the automotive press pick up on this - “Ford pulls bait and switch on Bronco reservation holders” - because that’s really what Ford did here. That BS about Ford cracking down on dealer shenanigans is likely just Ford’s marketing attempt to avoid negative press over sleazy dealers...
Waiting for the know-it-all where’s your signed, notarized, hermetically sealed purchase agreement folks to chime in and say people are stupid for not knowing your Bronco order Is more dependent on the number of Fusions the dealer sold 2 years ago and Escapes this year than your reservation time...
Ok, so submit your comments to Ford’s proofreading department. In the meantime, you can infer from the absence of special editions…they are also summer 2022 offerings
Makes sense Ford didn’t increase MSRP much. Already have 2+ years worth of production backlogged with “price protection”...well except for protection from unscrupulous dealers.
Thanks for the pics! I'm getting both and hadn't seen them together before. Can't wait to see the Rivian in person. I'll probably get my Rivian in 2023 since I held out for the max pack 400+ range.
As for the Bronco, early reservation but...2022? 2023? Who knows
