Let me know if you find one. I'm calling a few on Monday and will post results. At least we have until March to figure it out.

$2500 is a bit much.

I did $1000 up here in Canada (like $700ish USD) and had no problem with it.

What no one is talking about is it doesn’t matter when your order actually gets placed. I have a 7/13 reservation if I walk in on March 19th and place my order it will still get built before someone who has a 7/14 reservation who reserved in January 19th. Provided we have the same options with no predetermined delays. If I move my reservation to Granger right now it will for-sure bump someone out of getting a MY21 bronco. That is the way they have it all set up. Reservation/time stamp rules all.

I'm in central PA. Have my reservation with Sunbury Motors. Haven't heard anything from them in months. If that continues, I'll be taking a road trip to Stephen's in WV to get mine. 1k under invoice and a cool story to go along with it.

The non refundable part is the worst part, considering as this is rolling along they cannot give you a time frame for your order. It could be a year and half....

Ok, what do you think the purpose of a deposit is?
It’s not really a commitment if you can change your mind and take back your money ! lol
If you can’t afford the deposit, you might not be making the best financial decision?
What commitment are they giving you , the customer? A 2021 ford Bronco or is it a 2022? Will it be here in July of 2021 or April of 2022. I don’t mind a small deposit to avoid games being played but commitment that is only one sided leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

Agreed. Fords performance on this rollout doesn't rate more than a $500 refundable deposit.

I've contacted Apple Ford and Beshore & Kohler Ford in York. They are strictly adhering to MSRP, no incentives but are not requiring an additional deposit.

I'm waiting to hear back from Al Packer Ford again, but last I heard from them it's the same as above.

Chapman at least offers their "Engine for Life" program where the engine is covered unlimited miles/years. Chapman of Lancaster has 54 reservations, of which they are able to order 18.

Still thinking of Stephens Auto in WV however.

Same deal with Chapman in Lancaster for me $2500 non-refundable is a scam with so many unknowns. I told them to pound sand. Gonna make the drive to WV

But has to be within dealer allocation...

When is not their concern, as your time stamp was your responsibility when reserving, I would think we all know when we will be getting our Broncos, even if we don’t want to admit it! lol

I think Ford has done extremely well considering, it’s the ego centric on this form that believe otherwise!

Not sure what you mean. What Monster1926 said is right. I could do the same thing if I switch to Stephen's Auto. My reservation is 7/13@8:30 p.m. I would definitely bump someone out of a '21 and still be included in their allocation. Someone else wouldn't be because of me.

Really,according to Ford Canada, they haven’t begun with taking orders yet, most still don’t have the option sheets?
