Sasquatch pushes all orders to MY2022??

[Sgilson]

Hello, finally met with dealership last week to convert reservation into an order... I was told by choosing Sasquatch package, I am automatically pushed to MY2022. The only 2021 orders with Sasquatch will be First Edition. Has anyone else been told this? I am also told order will not be entered until Ford begins taking orders for 2022. Did I miss something? When I pushed back, dealership contacted Ford rep and confirmed. I was also told this had nothing to do with dealership allocations.

Nope.

This would be brand new information if it were true. Did you speak to the Ford rep and have names? It may be the first time that a dealer has ever lied to a customer, but possible.

What is your reservation date?

More dealership chicanery and/or ignorance

I saw this and anticipated a possible delay, but not a flat statement of MY2022 for all Sasquatch orders. I also did not expect order to be held until 2022 orders.

They need to convert your reservation to an order with priority 99(placeholder for 2022 MY).

No names, but dealership said they called Ford rep and he confirmed.

 

[Happytown]

Yep 100% accurate.

I would go back, get the sales manager and the regular sales person in one room and ask them to show you exact;y where from Ford they have received this communication. I would have the email from Ford ready to show them what Ford has put out to reservation holders which says NOTHING of the sort and raise the fact that thousands of others who have ordered their Broncos already have not been told this - so make them prove it in writing from Ford or call them on their BS.

Likely this is their way of telling you you are out of their allocation and they don’t want to explain it.

You'll definitely be a 22 with that date. But the dealer is full of it in regards to the general statement that all Sasquatch will be 22 w 1st ed being a 21

Then that would throw a whole new monkey into the wrench now wouldn't it? Personally don't necessarily care because I'm a purposeful 22er. BUT if all the Squatches that were to have been 21s now get put to 22s then us late folks just got smacked again.

Let it fly folks...
