I was tired of waiting

[DoubleH2016]

Hey everyone,

After being a silent lurker in this forum for the past 16 months or so, I finally wanted to make a post. After waiting more than 14 months for my 4-door Badlands order only to be notified of the continued delays from Ford, I said "screw it". I started looking online for used Broncos on the market, and boy were there plenty. Although, all of the most desirable trim levels were of course still way overpriced, with the average ADM being about $10k (still, better than the ADMs were in mid-2022).

Well, after looking tirelessly for the last few weeks, I found a perfect *NEW* Bronco, albeit a slightly different color than I ordered (I ordered Cactus Grey). It had more options than my order did, and with the $2,500 discount from Ford to buy another on-lot Bronco (which this qualified for), along with the dealer offering to do the transaction at sticker, it no longer made sense to wait any longer for my order. Two days after the ice storm in Dallas thawed, I hopped on a plane with a one-way ticket to Kansas City yesterday morning to pick it up and just got her home last night.

I couldn't be happier. I hope anyone who is waiting can look at this as a sign that maybe it could be the right time to at least begin looking on the market. Although rates are still high (I got 3.24% for 72mo from Tower Federal CU, which is GREAT right now), prices are coming down significantly and many people are beginning to get deals just above or at sticker now. I never would have expected to be a Bronco owner this year after the news broke a few weeks ago.

A big shoutout to Tri-State Ford Lincoln in Maryville, MO! Thank you to Jeremy, Austin, and Rick! The wait was totally worth it.

congratulations. A 51 looks great too but I am biased.

For a minute there I thought this was going to be one of those. I'm out & bought this instead threads .
Congrats, looks great . I think this is the smart move to make now if you can find what you want at a reasonable price.

Congrats! Pretty much the same build as mine. I can tell you that 17,000 miles later I still absolutely love this car and you will too.

Did you get price protection as well as the $2500 or just the $2500? it is a great looking vehicle!!

excellent !!!!!!!! identical to my 2023 except mine is sans squatch. Area-51 for the win. That is a smoking good interest rate for today as well. You did really well.

Congrats, did you have any trouble getting the $2500 off your new Bronco?

If your part of a credit union and only borrowing small amout you can get this rate. I assume he didnt borrow 70k

I did not get price protection because I had to cancel my original order. I was however eligible for that $2500 credit. For anyone wondering it was a pain in the ass to get because no one (even Ford reps) seemed to know how to get the credit applied in the system but it was all eventually figured out.

I did unfortunately. Because the program is so new everyone kind of had to figure out the ins and outs of all the terms. But we did end up finding that I did qualify for the offer and they got it all squared away after some digging.
