That's suspicious. Why can't they do it for every order? If they can do MSRP for one, they can do it for all. Make up for it by charging ADM on lot stock.
You could bribe someone in the bureaucracy with pairs of jeans, though. But to get those jeans you'd have to trade for some dollars...Getting a new Ford is starting to be like getting on the Trabant waitlist in Cold War era East Germany!
Haven’t even started or announced a Drive Tour in Canada.
We'll see how much of a friend they are soon enough. People believing that dealerships are allowed to get away with this is exactly how they can get away with this. I'd personally never deal with a dealership where they choose on a whim whether or not to charge you extra on your own vehicle order, they can't be trusted.
You're not missing much, it's more of a 60 second ride tour because you cannot drive it.
Safe to say if I have the opportunity to buy I won’t be disappointed?
Why is that suspicious. He seems to be saying this friend's relationship to GM may get him a better deal than others. i dont like ADM but how much profit a car dealer needs to make for the year is dependant on how much they can make per car multiplied by how many cars they can sell. If ford isn't telling them how much lot stock (and filled reservations/orders) they might get I can see them being a bit careful about making tons of commitments. As a buyer, all I ask is that when i order I get a truthful price that doesnt change.
As long as the dealer is up front about it, then OK. I'd probably still change dealers unless it was a really small amount, but at least I'd know what I'd pay for the convenience of buying from the closest dealer or whatever and be able to consider my options.
Exactly. that is what I am most concerned about as you basically give them your reservation when they build your truck. If you figure out a year plus later there is ADM that is horrible
I attended the Demo in Seattle and during the ride went from "I want one of these" to "Hell Yes I'm getting one of these"!
Honestly, this thing is quicker than anyone should be driving on the road and unless you're a trained driver, there's no way you're going to be driving it like they did in the ride along. It's almost as quick as a GT mustang but weighs twice as much, that's a recipe for disaster especially with a driver that's never driven anything even close to that powerful before.
Performance is the biggest reason I am interested in an electric vehicle. I love quick cars and quick trucks are even better. The fact that it costs less to operate and is environmentally better are bonuses. There is nothing better to me than throttle response.
That was honestly the same reaction I had. I was blown away by how quickly that thing moved.
