[BroncoT]

In all likeliness this was Jim Farley’s first big decision. What a jerk

Man... I don't even like Mustangs.

You shut your whore mouth......lol.

>How can you go wrong?

>GMC

I can't wait to see how much glare the headlights will produce on this new vehicle. It's also continuing GM's new trend of "slap an existing name on a completely unrelated new product". Ford would never do such a thing.

Maverick...

It's a high-demand vehicle, period. Ford has the upper hand and we all know it.

That's where I differ with your opinion. Not trying to get this political by any means, but the power is the hands of the masses. If a company does something we don't like, we, as a whole, don't buy from them. One individual has some power, but has a ton more when in connection with like minded individuals. If Ford seeks to screw over their early adopters, they've missed the script. We will not buy. We will tell our friends to not buy. We will do everything possible to make them the least amount of money as we can.

Had they chosen to reach out to us? We would have paid a premium. We would have been their best marketing team. We would have sung their praises. Now, we're buying a truck we think will benefit us selfishly. It no longer has anything to do with Ford. I'm going to do what it takes to make my fellow Granger buyers get the best deal, but when it comes to Ford, they get a giant middle finger in the air as many other companies do.

I got a verbal commitment from the GM at my local dealer that there will be NO ADM’s or anything of the sorts.
So, I’m good. Y’all pissing and moaning about a company trying to turn a profit is hilarious. Do your homework and find a dealer that won’t give you the high hard one.
i was told “maybe the Bronco wasn’t for me” when I questioned release dates.
maybe a higher end vehicle isn’t for some of y’all if you can’t afford it without discounts.
sorry. Just sayin

The financial side of it, for the vast majority here, is not the point. Go back 800 posts and start from there.

Well, change your signature block, because you state it’s sold.

Get it, they can change their minds at any time but to publicly say they’re allowing x-plan on everything but FE and then to change is uncool. You’re about to have the most successful product launch in a 100+ year enthusiasm and you’re crapping on the people making it happen.

I’ve had x-plan (and other manufacturers plans) most my adult life as I’ve been tied to the auto industry in one way or another. Never used it before because I could usually negotiate a better price. One time I think I gave the dealer the certificate on a Dodge Durango, but I had already negotiated a better price and had mentioned it to the dealer and they asked for it so they could get a kickback. First time I actually intended to use the plan and this happens. Dicks!

Wonderfully written!

I tried to do similar but gave up rather quickly. Here's a sample of what I came up with:

Dear Ford,
Who the F'in F do you think you are?

It kinda went downhill after that ?

GMC will be introducing the Hummer EV tomorrow. I mean, 1k HP and 11.5k lb-ft or torque. How can you go wrong?

Hadn't even looked at it prior to tonight. I'll probably make a reservation tomorrow if it's refundable.

In all seriousness this does suck for people hoping to use x-plan, but shop around-you still have buying power. You have until Jan 31st to change dealers(has been confirmed multiple times, no matter what another thread may say), and a lot of things can change between now and then.(Oh and even if you’ve already changed dealers once BN says you can change a 2nd time now) Goosfraba

If people were relying on x-plan to be able to get a Bronco within their budget, then a new hummer is going to be out of the question.

Depends on what GM offers. In my case, if the Bronco turns out to be too little for too much, I'd likely go for an F-150 where I can use X plan, plus Ford and dealer incentives. Financing rates through FMC are also likely to be more favorable.

OMG!! We should bow down to this one here! Get over yourself. You think because someone wanted a couple grand discount on a $60k suv can’t afford it. You are out of your &)@8&$ mind.

Let's put this is money terms... 160k orders and let's say 150k had x plan because of Mustang club. Let's say msrp was 2k over invoice. Thats what, 300million dollars they miss out on if xplan was offered? Im just throwing numbers out there though.
