2500 NR deposit....? I'd be telling them to F' OFF!!!!! My dealer said an additional 100. and I will ALSO make sure that measly 200 IS refundable...just in case I do not like it...but I don't see that happening.

I would think the dealer allocation could swing both ways. You may be high up on the reservation list with a smaller dealer and then switch to one of the larger dealerships and drop out of the allocation numbers for MY21.My dealer asked $1400 additional. But they let me know in November. I understand the point. It would really suck for the other 150,000 reservation holders to be leapfrogged because dealers built, and then were stuck with one these vehicles. Then some guy buys it off the lot. Not like they can just send them back to be reforged into the next Bronco. The next customer up is what a dealers business model has been for years. Now ford is going to penalize this action. Theyāve never not had the power. Extra $ keeps them from being the only oneās with skin in the game. I ask what will moving dealers do to help? Other than better allocation. If you order do u plan on buying? And if you plan on buying, what would cause you to not take delivery? Im just trying to understand what the dealer āscamā is?
I switched to another Dealer who also does not require a deposit, even got my $100 res deposit back, and he did the DORA and ordered my truck in 2 hours. Not worried about a deposit in any case as in CA you can't have a non-refundable deposit.Nope. In fact I switched to a new dealer, they entered my order today and said I had to put nothing down.
Agreed. Playing the allocation game dealer to dealer gives the earliest reservations the best chance to get a MY21. If thatās why youāre switching dealers.I would think the dealer allocation could swing both ways. You may be high up on the reservation list with a smaller dealer and then switch to one of the larger dealerships and drop out of the allocation numbers for MY21.
still bullshit. Refundable or no go.I'm not OP but I wanted to give an update to this thread since I had my reservation at the same dealership. I called them to them I was probably going to switch dealers because they were asking so much more for a deposit than other dealers in the area. I guess that were having a lot of people cancel or switch their reservation because they told me they changed it to a $1000 non-refundable deposit.
