Hey all! My name is Shahram Tavakol, one of the sales managers at Walnut Creek Ford. I have been at this Dealership since 2003, and can't remember a more exciting time then right now.

I am the designated Bronco specialist at our Dealership, and loving it! Feeling incredibly grateful and blessed for the amazing interest in the 2021 Bronco, as well as having a enthusiast community, such as Bronco6g.

I know there has been a lot of ground covered already, so I don't want to just repeat the same things, but I did want it to be known that I am available for any questions that may come up.

Just to reiterate, Walnut Creek Ford will not be charging a dealer markup on the 2021 Bronco, and will honor x-plan pricing (as long as Ford allows it).

My game plan is to send out a communication to our reservation holders as soon as the build and price goes live, which I am hoping is real soon! Fingers crossed.

I figured (thanks to some guidance by a fellow member, which I appreciate so much) this could be a great place to where any and all questions can be answered transparently.

It is incredibly important to myself, as well as the rest of our Dealership, that this community is taken care of with a reliable resource. I don't have all the answers, but I will make sure to get you accurate information, in a timely manner.

I have had the privilege to speak with many of you either on the phone, or in person, and really appreciate the feedback and support. I am available for you any time. I can be reached at any time via phone at (925)932-2900, or by email at [email protected]. I will also be logging into here throughout the day.

Hello Shahram, I am so glad you reached out to this forum with this information. I currently have a reservation through Ford of Fairfield and they have been dodging my questions regarding ADM and X-plan. I am going to call Ford and change my reservation to Walnut Creek today....thanks for the pledge of transparency.

Hi Ccoday,
I am too! Sorry to hear about the communication troubles. Thank you very much, as soon as I see it come over, I will send an email confirmation!

According to Ford, this month, I check myself on a daily basis to make sure it doesn't miraculously just go live. Has anyone heard anything else?

Moved to WC Ford today. Looking forward to the process with a dealer that has already gone above and beyond where I had my reservation initially.

Not yet... Still waiting. The suspense is killing me! ? Edit; Mike Levine tweeted that.. "IF, the current go live date holds? You'll be celebrating a mole, as much pricing a goat". Mole Day, Friday October 23rd? These cryptic hints are killing me. Shahram, please let us know if you hear anything.

Good Morning! Same here! That tweet gets me excited, though, thank you for sharing. If I hear anything, this is the first place I am coming to share!

Shahram, this is very concerning. Especially considering that Mike Levine tweeted that Bronco would be eligible for X Plan. There are a lot of unhappy potential buyers, myself included. I may need to re-consider? A Jeep Rubicon is starting to look a lot better right about now. I hope Ford re-considers. What are your thoughts.

In his defense @North7 i just don't think any dealer wants to think that WE KNOW that information. I've been running the East Coast Buyers group last 2 months and every damn dealer I speak to knows knothing about invoice and God forbid you ask them to dip into their hold back for a deal. They'd rather have 50 sales at MSRP than along with those same sales the possibility of 100+ more sales if they offer like $500 below invoice.

But I give this guy credit, so far he's more forthcoming than the 50+ dealers I've talked to.

One dealer sent our group the same price list that we have published on 6G, so I have high confidence that it may not be FINAL FINAL, but close enough for figuring out pricing. We also know Ford had a Dealers meeting recently and many Dealers vented about what we know. Maybe the Salesperson here has not seen it, but I bet his/her General Manager has.

I have treated all dealers with respect, but I find the three monkeys routine is getting really tiresome and a little disrespectful.

Hi Todd, I completely understand. It is concerning for us as well, since we were under the same understanding. I am looking into it further to confirm the legitimacy of the document released. I will update here as soon as I find out. Thank you.

Thank you Shahram. I'll wait to hear from you before I do anything drastic, like transfer my reservation to the Texas Buyer's Group, or start looking at Jeep Rubicons.
