List: F-150 Lightning dealers that do / don't apply ADM (price markup)

[GarageMahal]

Nevemind found it on the bronco link above. Looks like Mahwah ford does not charge adm according to the list. Would it be appropriate to call them to confirm?

You absolutely should confirm as there is no guarantee they are going offer the same deals on the Lightning.

Have never heard of below MSRP on a new incoming model!

I'd switch my reservation and fly to IA @Granger Ford and pick up to drive back to CA using the EA charge network!

What a nice way to break in your new truck !

Being in the Bay Area, this is sooooo tempting to do. I miss driving across the country. And I plan on getting the Platinum, so I can get a massage as I cross the mountains.

George Wall Ford Lincoln in Red Bank NJ with HIGH ADM! I will never visit that dealer ever.

Kearney Mesa Ford in San Diego was offering a good deal on Broncos. West Coast buyers might want to contact Eric over there.

I posted this elsewhere, but this is the list of the dealers I checked for a reserveration transfer (Southern California):

South Bay Ford: Wouldn't commit to no-adm, no pricing
Vista Ford (Woodland Hills): ADM
Airport Marina: Apparently only communicates through an antiquated "phone call" system.
Cerritos: No adm, but very slow to respond
Autonation Torrance: No adm/no add-ons

I’m currently reserved through woodhouse Omaha but would gladly drive to granger if they could give me more information. Woodhouse can’t even tell me I have a reservation… how hard is it to change dealership? Will it effect your place in line? I ordered night of the event so hoping to be in line for next year!

It is easy to change and does not impact your reservation timestamp. Takes a quick phone call. Sorry I don't have the number handy...

I’m not exactly sure how these dealers are charging ADM on an ordered Vehicle unless the customer is overflowing with money. Your reservation is for any dealer you choose, if you change your dealer that dealer charging ADM no longer has an “allocation”. My advice is when the order books open go to the dealer and sign the order paper right there with a price you are satisfied with. If they refuse then change your dealer when you order online. Last thing you want is a dealer saying MSRP and then want to charge you ADM once it is on their lot.

There are people who will call dealers and say they will pay X amount over for your order and dealers will do what they can to get you to cancel to make that extra money.

You can add Fritts Ford, Encinitas Ford and North County Ford to the No ADM list

Anyone know anything about dealers in the New Orleans area? I selected Banner Ford when I made my reservation. They have been communicating via text since I reserved, and they did say they will sell the Lightning at MSRP in a text message, but I felt like I kind of had to pull that info out of them, lol.

Love Fritts Ford - they are one of the rare Roush Ford dealers...
My co-worker got a smoking deal on an F150 ICE recently!

Same here. I got $8k off my F-150 in May.

Hoffman Ford in CT swears they will honor MSRP with no markup and use X-Plan if allowed. I'm conflicted because on the one hand they are openly campaigning against Tesla and Rivian (CT doesn't allow direct sales) which screws my Model 3 but on the other hand... I want my truck as cheap as I can get it.

I have never paid ADM regardless of what the dealer asked. I have only paid full MSRP once in my life. That was a month ago when I was forced to replace a vehicle and the dealer had 15 cars on their lot. They usually have an inventory of 150 vehicles.

Best Ford in NH does ADM. Townsend Ford in MA does not. Autofair Ford in NH will give you an ok order discount (invoice - 1.25% MSRP by my calculations), but the dealer fees are high ($825 - including some b.s. consumer protection fee no-one else seems to be charging in NH). I won't be going back after how the salesperson treated my wife while we were test driving a used F150. Was discussing most with me even after I made a point of saying my wife drove our current truck most of the time.
