The Plan & Offer - Stephens Auto Center's Mid Atlantic Bronco Connection

[T|K]

Mine says "base" on the Stephens website, but it's a Big Bend. You should be fine.

On 4/18 I got the email from Ford saying my delivery window has changed to 4/18-4/24. Then on 4/19 I got the email from John that my bronco was on the lot and ready for pick up the next business day.

I have been working with Joe and Jeremy on setting up trade in and financing, and will be picking up on Saturday. Jeremy did note that I was "lucky" and all of my price protection rebates were showing in the system and would be applied at purchase. So it sounds like there is still some uncertainty around that process for some.

Same situation with ours. Says its a base but its a obx.

We might run into a few bronco owners on saturday it sounds like! He said we were lucky the price protection shows on ours also.

Mine shows as a Badlands... but we have an OBX as well.


Update- as of now (12:30pm CST) Ford Tracker is showing delivered!

Jennifer was super nice! but no gift card

As of yesterday the tracker shows a status reset to Order Confirmed. Looks like I should be already shipped or shipping soon based on what others have posted.

Do you have any info on the recent price change and how that impacts us? I noted the sticker price from Ford is higher than my DORA.

I’ll be making the 5 hour drive to pick mine up today. If you send me some VIN’s and they don’t mind I’ll take some pics.

Dude...if you could look out for an Azure Gray BL 4dr soft top with last 8 characters of VIN being PLB38753 I'd appreciate it a freaking ton. You're a gentleman and a scholar, sir.

What number are you calling at ford to get your certificate info?

The difference between DORA (MSRP) and the Windows Sticker (MSRP) is the 2023 mid-year price increases. You will get the difference rebated in 30-90 days after you take delivery. You will be billed at the invoice of your window sticker (minus any private offers, plus the Stephens $1250 under invoice).

Dealers have to pay for the price increases up front, because it may end up being bought by someone else that doesn't qualify for the mid-year price protection. Only after it is purchased, does Ford send a check once they have verified it was purchased by someone who was price protected.

I hope that helps.

This may be even simpler. All price protection and mid year increases is being rebated to me at time of purchase. I see you were delivered a few weeks ago, Crowza, and were in that group that were kind of in purgatory for the mid year price change. They may have this all figured out now, but this is Ford and it could be a case by case basis.

Jeremy just sent me my purchase agreement and it looks like all of my private offer and additional price protection is coming off at time of purchase

 

[Faust]

That’s excellent news . Should be a lot less painful for both sides if that’s true.

Had a gracious offer to check deeper into my status by a member here on the forum and while checking for my vin saw this which must have been updated in the last hour or so. Getting closer by the minute! The forum member confirmed that my Bronco landed at Stephens today at 1:55pm.

Just spoke with SAC service department. For those wondering, the Zone 1” level kit (front only) and front end alignment is $410.00 for the labor and you purchase the kit which is like $60.00. Not sure if that’s a good deal or not.

This is the route I am going. $410 for the install and alignment. I think that is very fair to pull 4 coil overs, install the spacer, reinstall the coil overs then alignment.
