Dealer markup?

[79Bronco-iowa]

IMO- if Ford allows dealers to markup the shit out of their Broncos they are no better than Jeep.

Fair pricing is what will let this new generation of Broncos thrive.

You should sure be able to do that. The reservation system has changed the game on dealers, it'll take some longer than others to catch up.

I can confirm. State of Iowa has a state regulated $180 documentation fee. That's all and I've purchased cars from Granger before no tint, etching, other nonsense.

Granger just replied and confirmed the $180 fee. He also said "Yes we plan to honor X plan on top of this". Not sure what that means exactly as Im new to Ford but I signed up for the Mustang Club to have X Plan...

For those who live in the Bay Area, CA:

I reached out to the GM of Serramonte Ford and he confirmed that the First Edition's will most likely get ADM.

HOWEVER the other models will not.

What is stopping a dealership from saying no ADM, then doing a 180 as you try to drive it off the lot (Especially for FE reservations)? What can be done to mitigate this now? Even if you had it in writing via email, what can you do if they don’t honor it? Can’t switch dealers when it is delivered.

Are dealers 100% barred from charging ADM on A/Z plans? I reserved a 2 door FE for a close family member under A plan pricing, and am worried the dealer will try and weasel as much money as possible.

I believe they will get in a world of hurt for doing that. The Plan rules are spelled out really clear for both parties. The Doc fee is limited to $99 I believe or it was when I X Plan Ordered my '15 Mustang.

Folks should keep in mind that the X-plan doesn't necessarily apply to all vehicles. Ford states in the x-plan letter that some limited run vehicles aren't eligible. Have to imagine this will apply to the FE Bronco

HOWEVER the other models will not. I'm purposely not blocking his number so that there's proof if he goes back on his word (which I'd imagine he won't).

Also I'm not 100% confident so I have a second reservation with @Bronco Dealer

Sounds like he won't be selling many FE's. I have a reservation on a FE and I'm willing to bet I can find a dealer that that won't charge over MSRP. Being able to switch dealers with a reservation is key to stopping A-holes like him from gouging the consumer. We should start a black list and put him first.

I called my local Ford dealer in San Diego, Kearny Mesa Ford and they said MSRP and X-Plan is ok.

Buy the time the Bronco is delivered, I think F will be twice what it is today. New F-150 and new Bronco will drive sales big time. At least I don't think you will lose anything so it is an easy way to ge the X-plan (hold the shares at least 6 months).

@eBronco, any idea which interior that is in your image? Is that cloth, vinyl, or leather?

I am almost positive it is the Marine Vinyl, which is what I will be getting.

I.
I'm waiting on confirmation with Swanson farhney ford in Selma, to see if they're gonna mark them up or not. They kinda scared me when they said they'll contact me when they have them in stock. Told them I reserved one for a reason and want to order one. They said they'll let me know when that is.

The dealers appear to be clueless. Ask your rep at Swanson Fahrney if they accept X-Plan pricing which is a slight discount plus Admin Fee and let me know. I will do likewise w/Future Ford back to you. Go join the Mustang club at Mustang.org for a $25 membership and you will be eligible for X-Plan pricing. No need to get jumpy yet as ordering won’t occur until Dec.

MCA is probably wondering why they have 100K new members... LOL

Wow, me too. Love that white interior.

Very clean, it is the bomb. Nicest interior I have seen in a long time. I have a boat, so I am stoked about Marine VInyl. It should last forever.

Added most recent dealer information here to the master list thread. Please let me know if I missed your post

So another update Galphin Ford Van Nuys, CA is doing MSRP and X plan but he assured me nothing below MSRP.
