Cannot imagine that would be too bad. Ok is only 10 hours

Our shipping person is waiting for weight and size confirmations so that we can get accurate quotes from shippers
Quotes for both open and enclosed transports? Would like to see the price comparison, especially if the Ford protection film is left on the Bronco.

The question is how much film will they put on it..

MI vehicles use to com with the hood an food covered..

We received a load of explorers and a couple rangers last week that hardly had any film on them..

But our problem as a dealership is we have 24 hours to report damage and if there is a pain defect under and you want it left on (unpeeled) the damage if any would not be covered by Ford.

We had a Shelby come in with dirt under the clear and that turned into a mess.

So there could be hidden damage just a heads up on that

I trust your capabilities. I will probably want to fly in and drive it back to avoid any newbie transport driver damage. Not worth the risk.

I wholeheartedly agree.

Do not want to be a downer but reality has set in too many times so I will go with mass produced reaist :cool:

If any damage is found, will I have to wait a bit to get a plane ticket so the body shop can fix it before flying in?

Ford is working on a revamp to the site so that you can log in, go to your reservation and modify it there...

She will call me when it is done and ready...

As for the information here...I asked her to go to the site and she said Oh My I see...

She was going to reach out to her development team on the site and see if they might be able to reword that...
Thanks for posting and keeping this updated.

Great to see some people are continuing to work on updates and tweaks to the site!

Understood completely.

I am hoping for all to be perfect and ready to roll..

If it is not the phone call will go out and pix texted to the buyer prior to breaking factory paint.

We should have dealer pricing when the site goes live otherwise another debacle happens...

My contact says we should be able to quote accurately and she is aware of how we are marketing the Bronco...

So?she is spot on for us..

Would Ford allow ordering through dealership and customer pick up direct from factory in MI?

Well people pick up their own Grand Cherokees all the time from the locked lot at the Detroit Jefferson North Plant ?. Just bring bolt cutters and you’re good to go.

We will pick you up in a shuttle van. Do not want anything happening on the way to the airport in your new ride.?
