Traditionally, when buying through x-plan, the small print states the āvehicle must be purchased from existing dealer stock.ā
Maybe the definitions of words have changed.š¤·š»āāļø
Got a call from my dealer that the Eruption Green Black Diamond I ordered on 8/28/23 arrived today. Iām planning to take delivery on Monday. Considering the UAW strike, the holidays, the weather, and a thirteen day train ride, five months from order to delivery seems reasonable.
I am considering these tires, particularly a C-rated 285/75R17 when they become available. However, according to the size chart from Falkenās website, the C-rated tire weighs .5 pounds MORE than the equivalent E-rated. Am I looking at this correctly? Does this seem unusual?
Mine is also BD in Eruption Green with the same exact production week, build date and ship date as yours. Hopefully that train continues on to Florida and arrives in a few more days. š¤š»
A big shout out to Mullinax Ford in Vero Beach, Florida. I had to visit three dealerships in August ā23 before I was able to place an order successfully. They got it done in 20 minutes; 15 minutes later I received an order confirmation from Ford.
Last week on Friday I received notice the Bronco...
Iām probably mistaken but I thought I remembered a statement claiming these would be somewhat lighter in weight when released. Seems the entire line is noticeably heavier, at least in the 17ās.
8/28/2023 = Ordered
1/8/2024 = Production week
1/10/2024 = Blend
1/11/2024 = Built
1/12/2024 = Shipped
Looking forward to delivery at Mullinax Ford in Vero Beach, Florida.
I would definitely try another dealer. It took me three dealers before I was able to successfully place an order for a ā24 Black Diamond 2 door. Apparently it was due to allocation issues.
Yeah, kinda staggering. The Bronco base price has increased from $28,500 to $39,130 in 36 months, a $10,630 increase (+37%).
Funny, I remember my first new car purchase was a 1985 Honda CRX Si at $7900. I was 18 and had a ball in that fun to drive car. Oh how times have changed. Iām sure I...
That would be frustrating, especially when receiving no communication. Hopefully you will get some answers soon.
As an aside, during the ordering process for a ā24 I experienced an horrific lack of communication from two local dealerships before finding a third who seemingly has their stuff...
As of today chat says āorder is processing.ā
Ordered 8/28/23, confirmation 8/28/23, Black Diamond, EG, 2 door, 2.3L, mod bumper, auto, tow, roof rails.
Iāve been wondering about this as well. I recall from August a couple of commentators vaguely mentioned an improvement to the materials used in the interior for ā24, particularly the plastics. It certainly would not be a dealbreaker if not implemented, but Iām curious nonetheless.
