So I should be taking delivery of my BB Bronco within the next 2-3 weeks. Today I go by the Ford Dealer to touch base with them and also get a trade-in value for my 2015 f150. I have not talked to them since January when I met with the Sales Manager to place my order.
Now keep in mind, I have already looked up the KBB trade-in value of my F150 and I know that its in great condition and needs absolutely nothing. I vacuumed it out, wiped down all the panels, and ran it through the car wash right before going.

I find the sales person that was "assigned" to me when I placed my order.....I have never bought a new car from this dealership before. The Sales person remembers me.....so that's a good start! This person then says, "you have a Bronco Sport ordered, right?" I respond with, "no, I have the Big Bronco ordered....will probably be the first one your dealership receives." The sales person responds with, "oh, you're just getting the plain Bronco....not the Sport." 🤯......Two different things dumbass.....do your homework!

So after that, the sales person takes my truck around to the garage where I guess they look it over. GIves me an estimate of $4k less than KBB value.....on a new vehicle that I know good and well I'm going to be paying the sticker price for! The sales person was all happy like$20they were cutting me a break and I would only have a difference of like $20K....🙄 Needless to say they are NOT getting my truck and I didn't leave there with a warm fuzzy feeling!

I got an online quote from Carmax that is awesome. But I want to figure out delivery timing so I can time it just right if I sell to Carmax.

Also try givemethevin.com
Not sure if you will have one around you, but they are like CarMax but you can negotiate with them. They gave me a more than fair offer for my Jeep Grand Cherokee

I tried all of of them. Carmax was the highest for me. The dealer matched it and I still received all the tax savings…

What made you believe that dealers would suddenly become knowledgeable about their products? They've had decades to provide a bare minimum of knowledge and the salesmen rarely do.
