2021 Bronco NOT Eligible For X-Plan (Official Document Confirmation) [Update: Confirmed by Ford]

[Chief Keith]

I am glad I reserved a base, hopefully get base manual squatch. I am surprised how many peaple are thinking about spending Denali money on a beat around town fun truck. Disappointed about xplan but not surprised.

Just so you know your reservation means nothing. What ever you order is what you order you are not required to order what you reserved.

yeah probably no Bronco can be had for a $400 payment with only $5k down

His statement was fair gentlemen.

What trim and for how many months are you looking to pay? A base with Sasquatch will probably give 400 a month for 84 with $5000 down and thats with a apr under 3%.

Car salesman love when you tell them exactly how much you want to pay monthly...

Yeah, Base Mansquatch is the plan, and I know I'll be at my limit there. I make good money, but it hurts my conscience to finance a vehicle in the first place, so I need a smallish monthly payment.
I had a lot more for a down payment, but my dad passed away a few weeks ago, and had nothing saved to pay for a funeral, so it was on me. If they take the down payment at delivery instead of ordering, I can save back up and maybe only have to finance half of it or less, especially if I can sell a motorcycle or two...
84 months is horrible, but I can pay it off before then. It isn't that $400 is the most I can pay, it's the most I want to have to pay. In honesty, I'll likely pay $1k a month and knock it down as quickly as I can, but if something arises, such as a global pandemic and 3 months of unemployment, maybe I won't lose my dream vehicle if I only have to come up with $400 a month to keep it.

Yeah, that cracks me up when people go in and say that....

I cancelled my reservation. Not because of price, but on principal. I also put a sell on all my Ford Stock which was up a nice 62% since April). A Rubicon will do just fine in my driveway. For me, X-Plan has always been a way to get an honest and fair deal. I have never supported a dealer that didn’t support X-Plan, and I will no longer support Ford.

Does jeep have an equivalent x plan?

 

[GetWild]

Yeah, that cracks me up when people go in and say that....

you would be surprised how many people come in wanting a payment that is mathematically impossible though.

The vehicle becomes how you spec it. If you just want a beat around town fun truck then get a Base. If you want a sexy decked out thing, then its likely obx and up trims with some measure of high or lux interior

Sorry to hear about your dad. Hopefully the Bronco gives you some happiness whenever you get it.

Don’t let them pull the box method on you either. Another way to make you think your getting a deal but it’s all about math confusion. Simply ask for the out the door price, that’s all you want with invoice sticker to view. If they start giving you a song and dance walk out immediately and I guarantee the manager will be out to you quicker than shit on pigs. I help my friends buy cars all the time because they hate having to deal with dealers and I don’t really have a problem with it. I let my friends know up front they are probably not getting the car today and will walk away from quite a few dealers but expect some calls coming their way the next day of salesmen that want to deal because they have quotas and want to hit them so you just have to look at the long game.

Lol. Yeah, that sounds about right. What about when the salesman or the manager use the old “man you sure you don’t need a job? I think you’d do better than me here.” Trying to make you feel like you got the best deal in the history of auto sales. That stuff cracks me up. So I tell them, “I’m in the acquisition field so I buy stuff for a living dude.”

It seems crazy that the Bronco Sport is eligible for X-Plan, but the Bronco 2dr/4dr are not eligible. I just logged into my X-plan and verified Bronco Sport is on there.

Sorry for your loss. I hope you and your family are hanging in there. I lost my Dad in Feb, so I know it’s tough.
I definitely like the pay off quicker idea.

His statement was fair gentlemen.

You paying sales tax outright? Most people don't and it gets rolled into the cost. That's going to bump up the price, no?

 

[Blitzinger]

His statement was fair gentlemen.

surely you're not taking a car loan out with an 84 month term
