Bowen’s Garage CT invoice pricing

[Grooticus]

Hi guys, so I figured I would just start a new thread so it gets seen my as many people as possible. After seeing somebody else post about this dealership I reached out and am posting his reply. Short version is he will do invoice with 20 orders which sounds easy enough considering the numbers I’ve seen on here and I’m already 1 so just 19 others....

FYI just confirmed there isn’t anything special needed to get invoice other than mentioning it to him, small dealership perk. No hoops to jump through.

to me

Hi Chris, if the 20+ people switch we are doing invoice plus our prep ($175). Happy to take your reservation! And ya at this point it would be 2022 for sure. Let me know if I can help. I'm copying our welcome email just as it has some pertinent info you may like to see!

Thank you for trusting us with your 2021 Bronco reservation. I wanted to reach out and touch base on the process from here on out, as well as a little bit about us for those of you who don't know already.

We are a small dealer in Eastford, CT with 5 employees. I am the Bronco specialist, technician, and I do the performance work and parts sales. Adam is our Sales Manager and is cc'd on this email as well. We have been around since 1922 and still have wood floors and a small shop. Not your typical dealership!

Juggernaut Performance is our performance division which focuses on marketing and online parts sales all over the country. If you do anything with Mustang online or possibly F-150, you may have heard of us! Through Juggernaut, we plan to tackle the Bronco market hard both in new sales and aftermarket support. We are fully mod friendly (as much extent as possible of course) in regards to warranty, etc.

If you are local, you may know us. If not, you probably talked to us in the Bronco group! If you are not in it then join Ford Bronco 2021 on Facebook and also give both our pages a follow! Links below.

Bronco Reservations:

Nothing to do right now unless you want to get your build and price configuration sent over! In December, we will reach out to convert your reservations to orders. You will finalize your options and we will hammer out pricing. As always, no markup here. Not even on our 2020 GT500s. If you have a First Edition reserved, we won't mark that up even though there is huge demand for them right now. They are sold out currently.

If you prefer a courtesy delivery by another dealer, we will work that out and contact them during this order conversion time!

Reservations will be built in approximate order received by Ford. They will start arriving in June and will continue to roll in as fast as Ford can make them. There are a lot of reservations, and being they are going in order don't be disheartened if people get them before you! We will do our best to rush them along of course! All reservations after September 2020 will be delivered well into 2022.

I look forward to providing you all with another update!

I didn’t do much, somebody else initially contacted them. Jon is the only Bronco salesman so just mention to him you’re from the forum and he said he’d honor invoice pricing.

Emailed Jon this morning. I'm close to NYC in connecticut and was toying with taking the deal for $1000 under invoice but this may be better.

I can avoid the cost and inconvenience of travel.

Hope this works out.

Well, damn! CT is 2 hours closer to NH. Would Bowen be sending out letters like the one received from Brewster’s?
I feel obligated to stick it out with Brewster now, because I know these dealers are giving these deals based on volume buyers...

 

[TimBee]

I’m curious as well. Is the deal conditional on a certain number or is it open to anyone?

I sent him an email about something in writing today, we will see what he says.

Wow I had to look up that town, I’m born and raised CT boy and wasn’t sure where that was.

Good morning folks, I just heard back from Jon. I asked a few questions overall so we could be more clear on the process.
1) they do accept trades, being a small dealer he said he likely can’t do trades for cars with a large balance left. So if you owe a bunch on you car at the time of a purchase they may not be able to cover it. Which makes sense if he’s got to wait 3-4 weeks to get the title he can’t sell it and a lot of money is tied up. Other than that they are good for trades.
2) they do fiance through Ford and local Credit unions but stated we might do better on our own depending on what rate they are offering. I’m glad they aren’t requiring we fiance through them honestly.
3) Jon said about 10 people had reached out from this group, as long as he gets the 20 orders he will happily send out a letter with the invoice pricing etc broken down on it.

Did he mention anything about a deposit? I emailed Jon the other day but forgot to ask. Not super worried about putting something down for it, more so just curious for planning purposes.

 

[TimBee]

Is there a master list of people who have signed up with Jon? For planning purposes i'd like to know if we've reached the minimum to get the pricing when it comes time to order in a couple weeks.

 

[Bigmoose]

I'd consider this as well since I'm 40 miles away. Waiting to see what tasca can offer.

You guys may want to try and keep the group buy conversations in a single thread - or more than likely we will wind up stepping all over each other and then no one will hit the right numbers.

Been living in CT for nearly 20-years and had no idea where Eastford was until I looked it up on a map. I'd like to see a letter like Brewster Ford before I flipped my reservation.
