Family friend picked up a softtop Wildtrak today with no reservation…

Agreeing to buy the demo and having it actually in their possession are two things entirely. Dealer can sell it to anyone as long as they agree to wait until the appropriate time.

So how much did she pay over sticker?

I wish I knew. Not polite to talk finances but given the circumstances I bet it wasn’t MSRP.

Good for her 0 fault on her end. The dealer had to opt in and agree to the terms of the mannequin program. Not selling it for 6 months was a big sticking point also adding an accessory pack that ford chooses. If ford were to find out they would either pull all or partial of their allocation. Which essentially would screw people in our position. Would ford let them choose another dealer? This would open a massive can of worms.

Forfeiture of one month of future Bronco allocation, forfeiture of one month of future Bronco Sport allocation, and loss of eligibility for future Bronco FCTP programs.

I was close. The number to report the dealership is at the bottom of the page if anyone wants to Karen out.

A dealer was going to let me test drive one for 6 months... as long as i paid 20,000 over sticker

Not polite? Would’ve been my first question.

Ford has people looking for these sorts of posts on all the forums. If they actually sold it and this is not some sort of agreement, that dealer is going to loose a lot of money over this, and someone is probably getting fired.

My dealer has 4 Broncos for sale, 4 people backed up, they are all up for sale.

Losing a months allocation hurts the consumer more than the dealer no?

I’d be willing to bet the mannequin vins are flagged. If their sold ford would find out pretty quick on their own. On top of the spy’s they have.

edit: going to be an ultra rare one. 2021 rapid red soft top wildtrak

my dealer’s mannequin was rapid red. Maybe I need to do some more reading. What’s so ultra rare about that color….or do you mean the soft top? Not so rare if they are forcing that as standard now right?

*edit- it was race red. I didn’t know my colors.

Ummm…which dealer?

50 years from now people will argue about the existence of these.

The blue window sticker and soft top on a Wyldtrak makes it 1 of <3,000 as of right now. Start breaking it down by rare options and paint codes and it gets Fuddy quickly.

Rapid Red is a 1 year color and the fact that it exists on a MY'21 softie WT makes the population of it to be 1 out of 3000.
