Because I am waiting for Mansquatch, I've been out if the loop for a while. Now I am seeing some threads talking about how "having no signed agreement before ordering means you will be at the dealers mercy".
I must be missing something; wouldn't those people simply be "at the mercy of dealer markups" before ordering rather than after, in that case? What does the dealer care if you walk away before or after ordering?
This brings me to my main question: Do we have any leverage with dealers if they attempt to gouge? I hear it is too late to change dealers, so were there any communications from Ford on the subject?
I trust my salesman thus far, and I do have a written response to my ADM question stating that "we won't charge you more just because it is a Bronco". This made me happy back then, but looking at it now, it definitely isn't legally ironclad.
