Just went to Phil Long Ford in Colorado Springs and asked if they had a mannequin to look at and/or drive. Was told they were recalled to fulfill Retail Orders. They said they have been told they will get a mannequin by the end of July. Don't know the validity of the statement and was willing to figure out if this is happening at other dealerships.
I dont think any dealership should have one before the customers. They havent filled the orders they have why create more orders and more want when people that have been waiting a full year cant get them I dont think anyone should get a 2021 bronco except the people that has a order for one, dealerships should have to wait for 2022 broncos to show. The ones that are getting them are price gouging up to 25k,

Then Ford really stuck it in us, building them first to hurry and get them out to dealers just for sit. Isn’t it a stipulation they have to have a certain amount of miles on top of the 6 months?
If nobody drives them and the miles stay near zero they can probably sell them as new after 7 months

Sam Pack's 5 Star Ford has like six of them? lol

What a crock of shit. Good job Ford....
Are they actually for sale?
These automatically show up in dealer inventory when built/in-transit with a valid VIN.
They could potentially be for sale if the buyer/res holder backs out of the purchase.

They’ll still be sold as new just with miles on them. The local dealer is already soliciting bids with a deposit. Some dick head will pay over sticker for it.

Sitting in the dealership owner's driveway?🤔

As long as they aren't titled it doesn't matter how many miles are on them. Last F150 I bought was the dealerships owners truck. It had 8k miles on it but since it was never titled it was considered new and qualified for the current rebate and financing incentives.

And as @Evolkidbell said, the Broncos showing up on Auto Trader and such are most likely auto populated. Sure they could take them down but may as well leave them up and see if they get any nibbles incase one does become available.

I emailed mine earlier today saying that a few dealers an hour or so away had already received theirs or would be soon.

His entire response: "waiting on chips."

Yeah, most dealers do not deserve the commissions they take.
That just sounds like a missed opportunity if you don't take a bag of chips into him. Then ask when you can see the Bronco. Short stupid answer should be answered in the same.

I could see someone backing out, but six at the same dealer? Seems a bit of a stretch to me. We seen this coming months ago, but it's still a hard pill to swallow for those early reservations that have yet to get a VIN.

My point is the Broncos listed aren't for sale to the general public. Thee are reserved and on order for a customer. There's a possibility they would come up for sale if the people who ordered them back out of the sale.
