I was a little surprised to find my dealership listing broncos on their website. Then I was surprised to find our bronco in that list. I checked a few other dealerships some listed broncos and others did not have any.

just seems strange to list customer orders as if they are available.

Maybe they list just in case you never actually finish your purchase. In that instance they'll get the chance to sell your Bronco for the $20K over invoice that they wish they could screw you with. :)

In another thread someone mentioned that pre-ordered vehicles were auto-generated into listings at dealers. My June 28 build might very well show up in my dealer's listing, but it's certainly not for sale.

Been discussed a few times… these websites are highly automated, and it’s not unusual for a retail customer’s order to automatically be populated on a dealer’s website once the VIN is assigned.

It’s unnerving for the buyer if they aren’t expecting it, and annoying for the shoppers to find out the vehicle they thought was available isnt… but it gets people in the door and limits the amount of energy they have to spend maintaining the website

I see it on Ford.ca while watching for A51 sports to show up. They show as “Just Arrived!” On Ford.ca but go by the dealer and they have a sold sign in them. Anxiously waiting for when it is my Bronco showing up on Ford.ca as just arrived!

It's also how they get you contact info when you check to see if its in stock. I called last week to see if a 4runner was is stock(already sold) and now get a daily emails and texts from the dealership.

I’m just picturing you running to the dealership if you see that, yelling at random customers looking at it asserting your dominance that this Bronco is YOURS!!! :D

Just don’t pee on it like animals do; that might get you kicked out of the Ford dealership…

I did not just look, I ordered a 2022 and put a deposit down. I don't have much choice. Every time my current ride starts and gets me some where I am amazed. My reservation is some time in late November. The way things are going I thinks it's going to be mid to late next year before my Bronco gets here. Which ever dealership calls me first for pickup gets a check and the other writes me one.

This has been brought up and answered already.

Some are orders that auto-load into dealer inventory.

Most are likely mannequins to sit on dealer lots and not consumer cars.

It's going to seem even stranger when you see someone else taking it for a test drive. ;)

Im not going to bug my dealership asking when its showing up other then for them to call mw when the truck shows up so I can see it and bring it home. Fingers crossed they do it.

as for mannequins I cant say anything about the other 20 something listed but the one that is listed with our vin is not a mannequin.
