This doesn't have any effect on your place in line and it also shouldn't have an impact on that dealerships allocation that your moving too. In your case it seems you're taking your allocation spot with you and the dealership that played a game is losing that allocation.
Ford will have standard rates for these. You may want to check your credit union rates prior. FYI that irritates a dealership. As a finance director I can promise you that. I'm off today but, I'm going to try and reach out to my old rep and see what information I can gather and pass on to...
I've worked in this business (currently a finance director) since 2008. It's sad that so many dealerships treat people like meat. I've always told my customers I work for them. I'm VERY aware if people don't buy from me I am homeless. Literally. If I take the time to actually do my job correctly...
GM, Ford face competition from automakers who sell directly
As the US car market accelerates its transition to electric vehicles, both GM and Ford face competition from rival automakers like Tesla, which sells directly to customers rather than going through dealerships.
Meanwhile, the...
Dealerships were actually told not to share allocation with the public because it's extremely low. Like very low. Some "waves" have 0. Your waves go out directly to the customer from Ford. You get an invitation to convert the order and the dealership is hands off it. This was to prevent...
Is yours being built yet? All this bull everyone's going through is astonishing to me. If your dealership is marking these above MSRP they're headed for a world of hurt. Everything from bad surveys, loss of customers, bad rep, losing allocation, etc. This just is not worth it. Sheesh.
It took me a while longer to dig and find this information out....
You can have a vehicle drop shipped to another location if the receiving dealer gives you permission along with the dealer code and it's treated like a courtesy delivery once the vehicle has been converted (not in a 99 code) and...
I don't have the actual process completely down. I can get more details on it Monday afternoon for you. I do know you can place an order, have it built, then have it shipped to another dealership for your delivery.
This kind of thing really bothers me. My opinion being if a dealer is marking up just be up front. I don't see how hard this is. Ford said dealers that get caught marking up will lose future allocations. This is a really big deal. Also the name's must match too. If not, this will also cause a...
Fact. If dealerships are doing an ADM on the lightning they will lose future allocations. If you're unhappy with your current dealership you should move your reservation to another dealer who you can feel comfortable with.
