And blows my mind that a dealership would be closed on month-end.

My badlands has been in production for awhile now. The tracker wonā€™t even acknowledge my order number and vin. I did add the 2.7 and Sasquatch, but I thought those would be sourced when I got the blend date. My understanding is it has been built, but isnā€™t being ā€œreleasedā€ for some reason.

So today I decided to go up to my ford dealer and raise hell. I order my Bronco back in March soft top, normal build no special packages or nothing. original build date was 7/12 then got pushed back like everyone else. Finally was built on 8/4 and has been sitting in production status for ever. I have been emailing back and fourth with the bronco manger at my dealer and kept getting told oh it is in production. Mind you back in august I was told it was being shipped in then never did. Then in September checked the tracking on the ford website and saw it said delivery 8/30/21 When I went up there tonight to elder ford a guy that probably should not have told me they have 51 broncos that are just sitting back there behind a gate that they just havenā€™t gotten to because they are busy trying to sell other vehicles. Thatā€™s all I needed to hear to make me lose it. Unfortunately they will be closed tomorrow but will be back open on Wednesday and will pull my bronco and have it ready for me. If you have a bronco you are waiting for at Elder Ford of Tampa I suggest you go up there and raise hell.
Freaking dicks!

Something doesn't make sense.

A dealership, sitting on 50 of the hottest vehicles, in a market where there is a strong scarcity of autos and ridiculous demand to buy...because they didn't have time to get to them.

I can imagine every sales person in that dealership clamoring and pushing buttons to get a commission. They want paid too.

This doesn't reconcile for me.

Right cause we have been waiting and saving to. I have seen other post where people have already put money down on their bronco while waiting and we keep getting told we canā€™t put nothing down till it comes.
I tried to give my Dealer (of Broncos <grin>) some money and get a purchase agreement. "My Dealer said", no ADM, don't worry. I don't treat my customers that way. He's been awesome so far. [FRONTIER FORD]

If it is true, and they are trying to
This doesn't make sense. Selling those vehicles gives the dealer a better shot at a higher allocation in subsequent sales months. They're incentivized to sell them ASAP.

Granger had an allocation of something like 200 units for all of MY2021. There is zero chance they have 51 Broncos just sitting on a back lot.

*if* they are holding them, and *if* they are trying to be shady they may be thinking they have a loophole for loosing allocations when they sell to someone other than the reservationist. By stocking up for a few months before they take the hit. šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø
