CALLING ALL GRANGTOBER ORDER PLACERS

[Lainez]

Finally had my Bronco picked up by the transport yesterday. It should arrive tomorrow of Friday! Right at the end of this week's scheduling nightmare and the start of my wife's summer vacation.

FYI, I also received an email form Offroadeo with my credit for purchasing a Bronco. This was automatic and required no additional tasks on my end.

Holy Crap!

And it turns out the driver had a trainee with so they are driving non-stop from Granger. I should have this afternoon! Sweet!

Got the call and worked the numbers. Ford played games with my MY transition, so I have to wait for the exception process to get the full amount.

If I buy another car, it'll probably be from Granger; but definitely not Ford.

Nice! What was your final price? My final ended up being $1200 to Redwood City which was higher than the initial quotes but not terrible. Mine was finally picked up today with an estimated Friday or Saturday delivery. So close

Waiting on our flight to pick up today! Last few hours might be the worst part.

Final price dropped to $50 bucks to $1450.

Also, FYI, Received doc packet from Granger via UPS for registration and it included the check for the DMV.

It was fun picking up the kids at school and watching their reaction. Wife was excited as well and loves the color. Per popular demand, we tried hitting up the local SVRA, but they close on Wednesdays. Still found a local dirt road with massive washouts, so fun was had.

I see you’re based in Cali. I thought Granger was mailing the state tax checks straight to the DMV instead of the buyer. Maybe you completed your purchase before Granger implemented that approach (I think it was around May 15)? Or did they change again?

How long did y'all have to wait after finishing pre-financing?

It was 27 days for me. Though the Bronco was still in transit for half of that time.

Thanks. My Bronco has been there since May 25th and Samantha reached out and I finished the pre-financing May 31st. So I guess I still have a couple weeks to wait.

I obviously can't speak with any authority, but I'm pretty sure they are right around 2 weeks from landing to final paperwork now (that was my experience). I think the pre-work schedule is pretty random. Prepare for longer, sure, but there's hope for you this week; in my uneducated opinion.

I appreciate the insight my friend, I am two weeks today.

Thank you!

Wow, it looks great! Congrats, and welcome to the Bronco family!

I was told the same thing; granted I completed my paperwork the 1st/2nd day that started the new process. So, I don't know how it will shake out for everyone.

I never updated, been too busy enjoying my Bronco and getting back to work. Granger was fantastic, I will absolutely do any Ford/Chrysler business through them in the future! It's exactly 999 miles home for me and well worth it. I detoured a bit sightseeing. Not only the money savings, but the whole experience won me over.

My initial estimates of travel costs increased a lot due to Memorial Day weekend timing. I could've shipped for just a little more money, but I really wanted to attach the trip to my Bronco's story. Besides, I work in towing/automotive repair so I'm naturally very picky about others handling my vehicle as little as possible haha

Road tripping far far away to retrieve new toys and Starbucks Been There mugs has become a favorite past time for me! This time it wasn't a high mileage VW/Audi from eBay so the stakes were much lower

Way to go Granger team!! Thank you

PS: Zombie Burger in Des Moines was pretty fun! I need one here in central GA asap!

Congrats on getting your Bronco, we hope you love it!
