Had to jump down my dealer throat!!

[Bullitt]

There isn't a single dealership in the entire United states with 50+ Bronco's on the lot. You can't make this stuff up! lol

Maybe their dealership is being acquired tomorrow?

 

[Vigor]

So you realized it was delivered 8/30 in September and are now just getting around to asking dealer about it?? I don’t get it.

Agreed

@BroncoBD ... can you elaborate?

Maybe he meant, there is an area 51 bronco in the back lot (singular, not 51 broncos)??

Maybe this is the case
If so then op, your 8/30 Bronco is probably long gone to someone else

Being a Cartographer, you can get some decent imagery that is fairly recent. This photo, of Elder Ford in Tampa, is from Nov 24 2021 11:36 EST. This is the best I can do for you having access to Landsat 8. Can’t really make out what cars are on the lot from this imagery. Sorry, I tried my best.

This story isn’t adding up at all.

Website shows 20 broncos on site

510
Broncos you say? Any one have a car carrier maybe we could get em distributed out faster

 

[mbagne]

Yes. He said 51.

Wait, maybe he said he had "One 4-door Bronco, Area 51 behind the gate" and you thought he said that they have 51 Broncos back there.

I'm curious, is "outback" blocked by a fence? Security? Dogs? I've bought many vehicles, walked all over dealership lots looking around, especially after hours and on weekends. If my Bronco were showing delivered, I would be finding it regardless of what a salesman said.

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 haven’t gotten to because they are busy trying to sell other vehicles. That’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.

As a Mfgs Rep in another industry, the parts shortages, delivery delays, delivery damages (because they are loading trucks to the top) are very, very real. Understand, that when the planet shut down for most all commerce for a full year due to covid fears, and then re-opened in Jan 21', this was inevitable.

Wait till you hear about the farmers growing our food who cannot get fertilizer this coming spring.

Kooch

I've only seen two and they were both in Alachua County. I've been in Jax and St. Augustine 4x in the past month and only saw one sport.

I still have yet to see a bronco in the wild. My wife saw one driving down I-4 a few weeks ago and I see this same bronco sport on my way home every day. I keep thinking there’s like 10 throughout the whole state of Florida

TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!

I went by one of my local Ford dealer yesterday, and they had 9 Broncos out on the lot and another in the showroom. None of them were for sale, they were all customer orders.

I’ve been by this dealer a few times in the last month and each time they have 6-8 different broncos on the lot waiting for customer deliveries. I bet they’re getting 30-40 deliveries a month. At that rate, it wouldn’t take a dealer long to stockpile 50 Broncos.

BTW I talked to this dealer in Sept when I was trying to figure out what dealer to put my order with in Oct. At that time they told me they had close to 1000 orders.

I can tell you there isn’t 51 broncos back there

I’m surprised I’m the first to ask why there’s a 2 month gap between you learning it was delivered and you raising hell?
