Ontario ford dealers

[ThatGuyatFord]

Not so with GT350 either...I had to go to Saskatchewan to buy mine because the dealers in ontario were all 40k above MSRP.

Interesting. I've heard of this before but not sure how dealers are able to do it? I've heard of someone buying it new, driving maybe 500km's and turning around and selling it with mark up as it is no longer a new vehicle. Not really sure, not something I have done or know to have happen in my KW world!

Did you drive the GT350 back or ship it?

Shipped it back via TFX International. Cost about $1200 to ship. Better than driving it 3600km lol. Also still a better price than Ontario.

I actually had to sign a contract saying I wouldn't sell it for 6 months. Not sure it's legally binding but I wasn't selling it anyway so it didn't matter to me.

Avoid Airport ford lincoln in Hamilton.

They don't care about the online deposit/reservation system. Insist on a non-refundable deposit right now (2500) & their GM said that ford hasn't even released an online reservation system for the Bronco, only for the Bronco Sport.

When you try and tell them regarding the online deposit they will tell you that is only to gauge interest by Ford & holds zero weight. The deposit placed with them will be for their first allocated build.

After a few days back and forth with them, I had to tell him to pull his head out of his ***.

@mitsl FYI, this the email I received from Airport ford the other day. No mention of any deposit other than the reservation.

Hello,



I hope this finds you doing well. Thank you for your recent reservation of the new Bronco on ford.ca. We hope you are as excited about the release of the Bronco as we are.



I just wanted to extend my contact information if you have any questions about the new Bronco or the reservation and order process with Ford. We are not yet able to place orders with Ford, but once we are, we want to ensure that you get your order in as soon as possible to prioritize your delivery of the vehicle.



We expect to have the complete pricing and order guide released by Ford in December and orders going in early 2021.



Once we have submitted the order and confirmed the order with Ford with a deposit and signed agreement with us, Ford will refund the $100 reservation to you.

I know its been a long wait, but it will be worth it. This is the most exciting product launch from Ford I have ever experienced.



Please stay posted. We will update you as soon as we have more information to provide.





Kind Regards,





Chris Daley

New Car Sales Manager

it was a few weeks ago & I did end up complaining to ford who said they will speaking to the dealer owner. Maybe they changed their process.

CFD288, you should have received that email from me actually! My name is Connor and I am the Bronco Specialist here at Kitchener Ford. I am working on an email to go out to all of our reservation holders this week. I apologize there hasn't been another one sooner, reason being is because Ford hasn't sent me any useful information confirming anything unfortunately. I am just as much in the dark as everyone here is.
If you could reply to my original email with your name and Bronco6G username, I am making notes of our Bronco6G members to ensure the ADM fee is waved.

Thanks,
Connor

I've heard great things about TFX actually. $1,200 is a great price to get it brought down here!

So you're going to be charging ADM for non-B6G reservations?

 

[ThatGuyatFord]

At this moment, ADM is being waived for Bronco6G members with verification of their membership.
Please reply to my previous email, confirming reservation, to ensure you are on my list to have ADM waived.

Dodged that question. Ha.

Dodged that question. Ha.

Pan-y-verbena, It wasn’t my intention to dodge the question, my intention was to reinforce ADM being waved for B6G members. Also, to get more people on B6G to take advantage of this offer. I want people to get this offer being a member and apart of this community and grow it! At this point in time, ADM will be additional unless advertised including admin. Once we get pricing from Ford to advertise, I will circle back to this thread and update everyone. Please note, I am an enthusiast on this site just like you are and ADM is not a decision I make personally as a sales consultant. That is above my head but I understand where everyone is coming from with these questions

Ok guys got a big update from my contact at Kitchener Ford...

"Sorry for the delay on this, but I wanted to confirm with all of our AutoIQ locations that we will follow a consistent strategy.

We are really excited about the Bronco and very much want to embrace the enthusiast community.

At any one of our following 9 Ford locations we WILL NOT charge any ADM for Bronco’s for Bronco6G forum members.

- Kitchener Ford
- Parkway Ford Lincoln (Waterloo)
- Oak-Land Ford Lincoln (Oakville)
- Ed Learn Ford Lincoln (St Catharines)
- Barrie Ford
- Maitland Ford Lincoln (Sault Ste Marie)
- Northern Lights Ford (Wawa)
- St Thomas Ford Lincoln

As we do not know how allocation will be distributed yet or if there will be very limited production runs of certain models, we will reserve the right to set market based pricing on very limited availability production runs (if for example there was a model or trim like a GT350R or a GT500 Carbon Fibre Track Package).

Please reach out if you or any other members have any questions or ideas on how we can get behind the Bronco movement. We are pretty pumped!

We have also setup the following email address [email protected] for enthusiasts and prospective purchasers to submit questions or queries that we can research and respond to. "

Well there it is guys. I hope that helps...

Thanks awesome. I know well the owners of a couple dealerships in the GTA / Newmarket. I'm positive of the way I will be treated and am sure bulk buy savings would be on the table. I have a reso + the 1st 2 orders with them. 1 is left.

@ThatGuyatFord I was just curious, as I did not put in my reservation with your dealership, but it is an AutoIQ dealership as far as I can tell (Airport Ford in Hamilton). So I am just trying to gauge what I can expect.

Edit: Well, maybe they're not. I don't see them in the list posted by @1lostCDN.

I totally understand! Airport Ford in Hamilton IS part of AutoIQ and will follow the same strategy as the above-quoted thread! If you ever have any questions about the strategy, please let me know and I will be happy to help!
