New email from Ford - Bronco reservation dealer can be changed until Oct 31

[Raptor911]

the $500 is the fee charged by the destination dealership. In your example, Granger will only charge you what was agreed upon which is 1000 below invoice.

So in this case, since $500 is cheaper than most shipping quotes, if someone's original reservation dealer is charging ADM--would it make sense to just go with Granger no matter what and select that courtesy option when ordering? Can the destination dealer add on any charges from this?

I see this $500 as money will spent to 1) no longer have to worry about a shady dealer and 2) still save a considerable amount below MSRP even when factoring in the $500 cost

But since it's being drop shipped direct from factory the destination fee is the only shipping cost correct?

Any more info on this program? I googled it I could only find info about courtesy (loaner) vehicles for sales and fleet sales

Thanks

There is a courtesy delivery, but I am sure with losing the Bronco sale I would highly doubt your delivery to be as courteous as we will do..

If say we had a GT supercars then I am sure they would love to assist the customer and us..

But my inbox at work has not had some of the kindest dealer responses to the pricing structure we use.

Oh well life goes on.

I bet those messages are probably just a hair snarky.

I haven’t seen anyone come close to what you guys are offering. Best i have seen is ‘a little under MSRP’.

 

[Raptor911]

Correct! You are not paying anything additional for shipping. Mother ford does not care if you are 10 miles from the plant or 2000 miles from the plant. I think the delivery fee is 1495.

The reason for the additional $500 fee is because you are asking the destination dealership to accept the vehicle In behalf of the selling dealership. This involves pre delivery inspection (pdi) and sitting down with you to do The paperwork.

But since it's being drop shipped direct from factory the destination fee is the only shipping cost correct?

I didn't get an email yet either and I had my reservation in 3 minutes after launch. I've received all previous Ford emails without issue as well.

Are most dealerships not just selling these at MSRP? I would think considering the demand and pre orders, there couldn't be that much negotiation room right? Maybe I'm wrong. Would appreciate any insight from people who know.

A lot are charging additional markup. The dealer I reserved at emailed me and flat out confirmed they're charging it.

I haven't seen this in this thread yet.

Many are saying it's a good idea to get pricing in writing by October 31st. I don't disagree with any of that.

I'm just wondering, a lot of us are planning to use X-Plan or some other pricing, if it's made available (I became a member of Mustang Club of America - thanks brongo6g forums!).

Does anyone know or have an idea, do you think special pricing for Bronco will be a known thing or not by Oct. 31? Seems like if it's still a question mark then it'll be hard to agree on pricing if you plan to use one of these special pricing plans.

Just a thought.

I was wondering this myself today. I have a local dealership who has lifetime powertrain warranty, but I haven’t been able to get pricing out of them or if they’d honor x plan (if Ford approves x plan). It’s frustrating, but so far I have my reservation in a great spot and won’t change it just for convenience. It has to make sense if I’m changing to a local dealer.

Totally understand. The dealer I switched to has already put out a nice mass email of FAQs specific to their dealership, such as will you charge a markup ("Big no on this one!") and do you accept X/Z/D/A plan PINS ("Big yes on this one!") though with the caveat that they don't know the pricing plans yet. So I feel about as good as I can at this point.
