[JTBros]

May have mis-remembered but does granger handle the sales tax? Going to be registering in NY and just wondering if I’ll need to set aside that or not.

I haven’t asked in 3 years but last I remember no. You settle up with your dmv when you register. But I’m sure someone that has bought can chime in.

For those of y’all that have picked up your bronco’s, how soon after you were notified and completed the online stuff was your Bronco available to be picked up. Brooke emailed me tonight and I’ve already completed the financing application online. I’m hoping to get it this Saturday.

Do you know the hours they are open? I was told they are open 9-12 on Saturdays. Just a warning.

I’ll be there at 8:59 if they let me pick it up!

You have to purchase a temporary tag for ~45.00 if you are picking it up from out of state. I don’t know about it if you are shipping. You settle up with your local DMV. Keep all your receipts. My local DMV did not believe I got my Sport at such a low price. I had to provide the actual sales documents. They sent me a letter stating the price I indicated I paid did not come within the normal distribution for my vehicle. I told them that “I got it at Granger!” That went over their heads and request actual proof! Just had to provide a copy of the purchase contract.

Awesome thanks for the heads up. May even see if I can get a temp tag from the state and have the ball rolling before pickup.

“If you purchase a vehicle in another state, you will need to go through that state's DMV office to get a temporary plate and registration to transport the vehicle to New York.”

Granger will give you a temp tag to get you back to NY, not sure how many days it's valid but that's the $45 fee.

Figured that was the case, just was looking to save a few bucks as the NY one is $12.50 but that’s just if you’re driving within the state or taking the car out of the state.

I think it was good for 30-45 days.

Back in the day, Albert talked to me about including sales tax for my local county into my financing. He stated it was possible for them to do, but it involved them cutting you a check after the deal was completed, so you'd handle the payment on your own when you returned home. The way it sounded, they weren't going to be handling the tax payment to your local DMV/county tax collector, that is on the out of state buyer.

How are folks getting transport to Granger from the airport? Cab? Uber? Bus? Shuttle? Other??

I had to Uber because it was on a Saturday and they don't have the staff to run a shuttle. About $45 plus tip.

Do you know the hours they are open? I was told they are open 9-12 on Saturdays. Just a warning.

I think it was 9-1 to catch Samantha but I was able to pick it up closer to 3 due to flight delays. The dealership is open until 5 on Saturday.

The process was seamless. Ford even allowed the $2500 order modification rebate on top of the $3645 price protection rebate even though I never modified the order. After all this, I'll take all the credits Ford cares to apply!

Got at F150 Tremor from them last October since my DD was dying. Granger provides a transit tag. Once you have the title (?) you can register at DMV. At that point you your local state and county taxes.

Heads up if you are in CA: you will need to weigh your vehicle and do a smog check. Generally, these are both done/provided by your dealership directly to the DMV. Both are needed before the DMV does the inspection that is mostly CARB based. From what the DMV person said, despite most vehicles being 50 state compliant, that is not always the case. Also, be prepared to pay with a check, otherwise the credit card fees are tacked on to the taxes.

As a side note, I had surprisingly nice interactions with the DMV. Due to the different steps required, I had to go in/out of the DMV 3 times in the same day. Despite that, doing the weigh station, and getting a smog check done, the whole process was only 4 hours. This time I will get the weight cert and smog done before I go in and should be done in a straight shot.

I've moved on from Indiana and am somewhere in my home state, Missouri. I have no clue what the town name is. That robo-voice is hard to decipher. Been handed off to BNSF. Assuming Omaha is the next stop, but maybe the backup has forced a different route.

Kansas City, Kansas is probably next. That is where my railcar is currently sitting.

I started marking all the cities on the route, and it is a pretty straight shot from Chicago (Gibson Railyard in Hammond, IN) to KC.

And then I guess we then go north to Omaha.
