Given the increasing amount of dealer ADMs and shenanigans taking place, I think it is important to understand what exactly may hold a dealer to the agreed upon price when our broncos finally arrive. FORD does not help with this at all with any sort of template or binding language for reservation holders either. Whether that is a nod giving dealers leeway or a legal impossibility for them is unclear. Reordering for MY'22 gives us the perfect opportunity to march in a demand something specific gets signed if we missed doing that the first time around.
Does someone want to provide us with a copy of their "signed purchase agreement" that we are all supposed to have which is supposed to protect us here? So far, everyone says that's what we need yet not many people, including myself know what that should look like. I signed a build sheet with the date and MSRP on it for the dealer which I have a copy of, but they did not sign that - there's not even a place for them to sign it. The dealer has verbally said MSRP for reservation holders and delivered several at MSRP already, but that's not enough for me.
Regardless of this, there is a secondary discussion on if that agreement is even a binding contract. Many people seem to think that until you take official ownership either with cash or from a lending institution to pay off the dealership, it's completely theirs to decide what it sells for. I am not waiting 24 months and driving a vehicle that's falling apart to buy a dollar above MSRP.
I need examples of what some of you think we need here, because so far the discussion seems to be nothing is actually valid if a dealer wants to charge ADM and then sell it to someone else.
*Disclaimer - I apologize if this has already been done in the Forum and I missed it. I do think it is a good time as we approach 10/13 to rehash this.
