Well, that’s going to be awkward when I go to the local dealer for a test drive and I tell them that I went 1500 miles away to avoid buying from them. ?
Assume you did it for a better deal. If they give you slack, just ask them "can you match it?"

Thanks for sharing. Not clear to me how this benefits reservation holders before the order window closes.

seems like this is simply way to drive walk in retail traffic for 2022 orders.

they should have had these delivered well in advance of the ordering window.
They have soooooooo many reservations that even if they only get 50 percent conversion, they're set for the year. So other than delivering on the product, they really don't need to satisfy or cater to us. Their focus is on attracting future reservations now

Just the ways of business

Can't find um grind um LOL
Rev to 5000rpm and dump the clutch. You won't have any tire tread left but at least you won't stall!

Ford: You will now be charged an extra $1,600 for the auto tranny.

Me: Damnit Ford!! What the hell? I have half a mind to cancel my reservation here and now!!!

Ford: Look, a mannequin.

Me: Oooh!.....Where do I sign?

Lol...I already asked my local dealer this at the off road show. I told him my Granger deal and he laughed and said "stay where you are". Almost every dealer around here are msrp + so he thought he could get me to switch by charging msrp.

In all seriousness, some of the most important aspects of driving a manual is clutch and shift feel. This is a brand new transmission. I don't even have an option to test it in another vehicle. It would be nice to at least drive it before I sign on the dotted line.
I’d like to know if it has a soft/inconsistent engagement point like my 2018 mustang gt had. I replaced the factory clutch pedal spring and perch with a Steeda spring/perch and it was a huge improvement.

I'm concerned about this too. It's a main reason I haven't hounded any local dealers to see AMB on an F150 yet. "Oh you want me to spend my time to show you a vehicle you aren't going to buy?"
Just use fords site see who has one and go drive the lot on Sunday that's what I did last weekend. It was great having nobody bother me got to look at it as long as I wanted. I mean for the AMB

I wonder if these Broncos we have been seeing built recently are the ones going to the dealers?
I hope not. It is a sure fire way to kill OBX orders by shipping a Roast seating with Navy Pier dash and vice versa. Also, not it for the Soul Glo Edition.

I’ve been down to my dealership three times now, looking at paint colors and the Sport. Always seems to be a different salesman ??‍♂
