because you are...if you had any pride in what you are doing you would own it. It's pure slime and this kind of garbage gives dealerships a bad rep. If there were ANY morals then people who ordered at that dealership, reservation holders that put trust there would be getting their vehicles without adm.
BULLSHIT... Go look at the f'n document.
@Ford Motor Company , @mrlevine
It also destroys the “value proposition” benefits over a Wrangler. Who cares if it’s cheaper for the same options if Wranglers are 4-6% off MSRP and Broncos have a 5k ADM? This is where Ford doesn’t realize it screws them. You can’t undercut your competitor when dealers make the truck 5-10k more for the same features.
If the only defense one has for their conduct is that it's not illegal, then their conduct is shit.
That’s my entire point. Yet the kids here are literally throwing tantrums. I don’t get it.
This is big for me. Basesquatch is a damn good bargain compared to a rubicon extreme... until you take the wrangler down to invoice and you sell the Bronco for 5k over MSRP. Then the basesquatch is missing a LOT of stuff the rubicon has and it costs more money.
yeah, shitty conduct by the dealer. But legally kosher and @Ford Motor Company is happy protecting these dealers and dumping on the good dealers that have gone above and beyond for their customers and the Bronco community as a whole
Many of us here are not kids. We have watched the BS dealers have pulled for decades and know when to point it out.
I'm guessing - without seeing the dealership agreement between the dealership owner and FMC - the dealership agreement says something about the dealers having complete autonomy over pricing so long as they don't advertise prices too low. These agreements were likely written decades ago and only moderately changed over the years and didn't account for things like the reservation system. That's why traditional car manufacturers advertise manufacturer's suggested retail price (emphasis on suggested) vs Tesla who is selling direct who just advertises a price.
It's weird to me how many people on this site seem to enjoy dunking on people getting hosed by these dealers, who gloat "yOu DIdN't GeT A SiGNeD cOnTRAct!!!" over a person getting taken advantage of at the very end of a very long wait for something they want very much. Regardless of the legality, I think you would agree this is a crappy thing to do to someone, and that you would probably also be upset if someone took advantage of your desire to have something by squeezing some more money out of you.
They think they have a price agreement in place and end up getting screwed by DCH Ford of Eatontown?
Your guy, the OP, threw a tantrum at the dealer, damaged their walls, and will now face criminal trespass charges if he steps on their lot.
