Realistically, when will you be able to walk into a dealer and buy msrp?

[Zero_chance]

I'm going with the end of the summer. Bronco Raptor will be the new ADM queen and most blank check Bronco buyers will have already made their purchase by then or moved on.

People getting shafted by allocation will be able to go buy something at MSRP that will be "close enough" to their original build. You can already feel the market softening with less of those 20k ADM's and more 3-5k ones.

Area dependent bear in mind. I’m fully intending to wait for the 23’s but was bored so searched the area to see what was available. 60k no option base models and 100k first editions galore in the Phoenix, AZ and surrounding area.

If you ordered in July 2020 and switched to soft top by around May 2021, then you should have been able to walk into dealer and pay MSRP (and have your Bronco by now most likely).

When everyone refuses to pay over MSRP.

Yup, supply x demand = No Broncos below MSRP

You won’t be able to anytime soon. In fact, the Ford Bronco is expected to hold its value better than the Jeep Wrangler. So even if prices cool off, there’ll never be any “deals” per say.

The people saying prices will crash, are just wishful thinkers. You’re much better off ordering your Bronco at MSRP, and waiting a year for it to be delivered. Instead of waiting several years for a chance to get dealer inventory for MSRP.

But even if you order one at MSRP doesnt mean the dealer will sell it to you for MSRP. They can mark up the order as mine is doing. So if it's not a trustworthy dealership then ordering just ensures that they have another Bronco to mark up.

Car lots are still empty.

If you find the right dealership you can get one at msrp. Some dealers are get stock units.

Yah a more door rag top. Happy to wait.
To each his own.

Anytime you have a business model that’s protected by some archaic rule or law, it’s ripe for disruption. Dealer protection laws were written to keep manufacturers from opening their own showrooms. This was long before there was anything like the Internet. There’s a role for dealers, just not the one they’re currently performing.

Depends. Here in the Chicago area, if you want to run wiring inside a house, you are required to run it through metal conduit. There are various excuses given for why this is necessary, but I call it the "keep electricians employed" regulation, lol. I don't see that regulation changing anytime soon - if ever. Even though people have tried. In terms of cars, the dealer model must have a lot of clout in terms of politicians and lobbyists. Agreed, it's due for disruption, but who knows when.

The NADA tries to tell us that people love the car buying experience. I say BS. Everyone I know would rather have root canal than go to a dealership. The buying public will eventually force the current business model to change. Just saying .

Agree. Folks should wait for what they want. Luckily I got what I wanted and ordered after only 12.5 month wait. I’ve had 2-door jeeps when I was younger but the 4 door was what this retired guy wanted (mainly for the good looks).

Isn't Ford building twice as many 2022's as 2021's? There's 70+ Broncos within 50 miles of me, all marked up 10-20k, most are 2021's and 2022's hitting the lots now. When will the madness end?

I found one last month at Crown Ford in Fayetteville NC for msrp. Great people. It was a six hour drive both ways and night in hotel. Worth every penny. Love my Bronco.

How are folks even getting financed for a vehicle that is X above MSRP....crazy, and once that depreciation kicks in for first model year,

Great question, a family member purchased a fully equipped Wildtrack ~$60k MSRP for $85k. PENFED only loaned him $60k. I assume smart financial institutions are not falling for financing ADM.
