I THINK I got a good deal...am I wrong?

[SeanMTX]

i ordered same day, I’m built since July 9, but still waiting to board a train to ship to dealer. Trying to get info.

Ford HQ told me I have a $2350 certificate (I’d no idea) and hope no issue with PP once it arrives to dealer.

What did you do to negotiate the extras like tint, etc? I’d think my dealer would be happy for me to walk away so they could sell perhaps for higher price…

I went in trying to buy this under my LLC in Montana and was told that Ford would flag the dealer which would possibly cause them to lose their allocation. (No idea if this is true). I asked him how we were going to close the gap on what I would have saved in taxes and that's where we landed. Rebate, $250 off, tint and a bag o' goodies.

Thanks for all the replies. I've got a long drive to New Mexico today, some weekend upgrades and then it's trail time!

Appreciate the help and feedback.

For what it's worth they are required to give you a full tank of gas, Ford reimburses them for it. And they were also given the swag by Ford to give to people when they buy a Bronco.

Like others have said as long as you enjoy it, it doesn't matter.

This is what I was thinking on the gas too, I know I have a fuel charge on my DORA for $88 which is more like airport rental gas prices for a full tank!

OP, without having the wait some of us did that got under invoice deals and getting it a bit below MSRP is a pretty good deal to me in the current market, the fact that you got some free swag never hurts either!

Good price.

Dealer I got mine from just sold 4 of 5 from inventory in the past few weeks. Had ADM on all of them. Wouldn't budge on a wildtrack at $5k over.

Crazy thing is, 2 years ago some people received 2 door manual bases at $28,500 in states with no sales tax. Right around $30k out the door w/delivery.

To all who are saying If I'm happy I should be happy...you're totally correct. I'm frankly surprised that they moved at all with swag or rebates or discounts at all. My friends got a 4dr Outer Banks SAS and did not get a rebate. They ordered the week after I did and picked theirs up earlier.

That got me thinking...did I do well or just the norm. I don't know the specifics of their deal and it's easier to ask the anonymous people here who are more experienced than asking them.

Thanks for the responses.

2021 Two door Badlands. 2.3, 7M, High pkg, tow pkg. Stickered @ 47,500 including destination and delivery. They would not budge on the price. This is the first vehicle I have ever bought in my 40 years of buying vehicles I actually paid sticker.

BASE price on 2dr BL is now $48K !!! BEFORE any options... Hang on to that one mate.

I think you got a today's deal/price. I just picked mine up last week, at MSRP, the first ever vehicle I have bought at MSRP, but like you, feel fine about the new normal-Love the Bronco and as others have said, that is all that matters.

see I’m telling you this on the internet so it’s 100% true.

OP, most of the folks on forums are good people but there’s a lot of embellishment. As long as you’re happy, enjoy. Someone’s always there to tell you they are better. Welcome to the new 6th grade playground.

Re-read the thread and didn't see any embellishment or exaggerations...just some people who actually know how to negotiate.

I also ordered end of March'23, picked up early last month. 2-door big bend. also got the $2350 rebate and was not due to price protection, since my order MSRP was same as what showed up on the actual sticker. According to my dealer it was because of my ~3-month wait? LOL, probably it was because now they are building them with MGV seats and rubberized floor or because FORD felt guilty overcharging us 2-door owners.
In any case, mine is still over priced at ~$43K sticker for a 2-door big bend with aux switches and roof rack

I picked up my new Black Diamond 2dr SAS today and I think I negotiated hard for something hard to move from sticker at all. I'd love to hear other opinions or stories to see if I did ok.

MSRP on 2023 2dr SAS Black Diamond with the 2.7 and Mid Package - $55,140
TTL and all the fun stuff (no warranty or add ons) brought it to $58,590 all in.

I ended up with a $2,350 rebate, a $250 discount, free window tint, and one of those backpacks with the fire extinguisher and shovel. (plus a full tank of gas). All in cost to me was $56,240.

I walked out happy (which I suppose is the only real judgement I should be looking for)...but I'd like to know if I could have done things better. At this point it's irrelevant I suppose, but I feel like I should have lobbied for a hat.

How have others fared with their buying experience?

The definition of a successful negotiation is both sides are happy... Nice looking Bronco.

I had an under invoice deal negotiated back in '21. What is wild is how much the price increased on that original reservation until I took delivery a few months ago. Between the deal, rebate and price protection it was a big savings compared to what was actually on the window sticker.

Oh, and congrats on your Bronco.

Same for me

 

[adamargyle]

Sounds like a good deal. I happened on one last week at the dealer (4 door, big bend, Sasquatch) and I ended up buying it. Paid sticker ($52k) and negotiated a bit up on my trade. It was right before the announced price increase.
My son got a free bronco hat and I have some free tire rotation and oil changes from the dealer too.

forget nego go enjoy your bronco
(2021 sas 2.37l bd 4dr area 51 soft top with to many upgrades to type)

You got a great deal. Dealers in my area are still charging over MSRP. I had to buy out of state for MSRP. Dont forget Bronco's are still scarce on lots so its not only what you paid, but the fact you got what you wanted.

I orginally ordered OB 2dr w/sas 2.7L high Pckg, roof rack, Mod Bumper, & tow in 2021 $52,810 took the offer to drop Sas and move to a badland 23, 2.7 L high, Mod Bumper that is it $53,445.00 which was 23 Prices in January. I got $4,800.00 in Rebates.. so 23 Bandlands for $48,650.00 and now just this week the 23 went up again so my Truck is worth $58,000. and I love it. The Sas Package I can add later not really missing it
