Do you think it would be easy to sell right away? I don’t want to risk being $60k in debt lol

Nick,
You could be the worst salesman on the planet and make a lot of money in a very short time. There is virtually NO RISK....DO IT NOW!

Code orange, black leather and orange seatbelts (love colored seat belts!). I was going vinyl but really wanted heated seats for the times I leave the roof off too early in the season. One of the main reasons I was going with the vinyl was for the wash out floor. Ultimately decided I would get more use out of the heated/power seats than I would the washout floor. Now if I could just get my order in when Fords systems are up and running!

The MGV seats are heated. I like manual seats over power unless the power also has memory. Power are slow, it’s quicker to yank the handle and slide it.

Just ordered one and no such agreement

Are you sure you’ll be able to sell it? Lots of special editions are requiring 12 month no resale agreements.

Ordered mine outside of a reservation and may sell. Hopefully the Code Orange will be desirable.

No interest in selling mine - even at the stupid prices. However couldn't a vehicle escrow company facilitate a large transaction and title transfer. I know ebay has a company they suggest using for specialty vehicle sales. They hold the funds until vehicle is taken possession of. I would think they would handle the tittle transfer also. I've Never used these but thought about it when selling an RV a few years ago.

They do not show as heated on the build site.

I have read on here in the reservations forum that the first 24 hours from reservations opening on 7/13/2020 (8pm EST?) are considered Day 1. I could very well be wrong, but my 7/14/2020 10am PST reservation was delivered 11/4/2021. YMMV.

That’s a good example of why the first 24 hours is a faulty measure of “day one.” I reserved a few hours before you (7/13/20 at 7pm PT) and took delivery three months before you (8/10/21). A few hours makes a big difference. Honestly, people just say “day one” and delude themselves because it makes them feel better, not sure why or how.

“My” dealer, who hasn’t even earned my business, wants $50,000 over MSRP. Damerow Ford in Beaverton OR. Unbelievable!!

Call Ford to open an official complaint against your dealer. The more this happens, the more Ford will ultimately be forced to do something. 800-334-4375. Doing nothing only emboldens dealers to do more.

I was willing to pay 20k ADM to order a Raptor and the PNW dealer now says I have to come into the store to do it, which I won't be able to do because of my work travel schedule and being out of town for the next 3 weeks. Guess they don't want their 20k ADM that bad lol.

There's alot to consider for flipping it unless you have access to a friend or family member at a dealer that can help facilitate the transactions.

You buy it call it $75k, you pay the sales tax, you take out the loan so call it $80k all in- the title now has a lien on it. You will wait for that title a month or so, you have to find a buyer at 85-95 to make it worth your aggravation and risk, they have to get financed for a used car - that is selling $15-20k above MSRP (difficult- but not impossible) . You have interest cost and insurance cost on this while you are waiting for title, also maybe very nervous about making sure nothing happens to it while you are waiting for all the paperwork to clear. Then you need to payoff the loan in order to have a lien release to actually flip the title and transfer to your buyer. Not sure I know a buyer in their right mind that will fork over 90k for a car they can't take possession of, title or insure themselves. It's alot more difficult than everyone makes it sound - this isn't a used $8000 Accord. If either the original buyer or the secondary buyer had the cash to buy it and flip it yeah - not an issue - but I'm guessing that having 2 people with an idle 80-90 k lying around just to buy and flip a Bronco is a bit of a unicorn. But that's just me.
