Markups

[ToyPonyForTony]

Do you all expect dealerships to markup the prices of our factory ordered Mustang's? If my dealer marks up my Gt I am buying used.

Depends on the dealer but I’m sure some will.

There have been reports om this forum of dealers marking up pre-orders.

And from a business standpoint, with the production constraints and what is still strong demand for the car, I can't blame them.

That's why so many of us are purchasing our cars out of state, as there are select dealers willing to sell them at/below invoice.

If mine even tried...they can choke on it.

It's a convenience tax in a way.

If they can't sell it to you with markups, they willl find someone who can, as many people don't want to go through the trouble of traveling out of their way to buy a car.

Forum members should back each other up on this. Any dealer reported to do this bs to an ordering forum member should be flooded with negative reviews on google

At this point, everyone that ordered a Mustang should know what they're going to pay.
If the price changes I will walk away.

Ford might have an issue with dealerships selling cars to someone who didnt place the original factory order since it discredits the whole point of factory orders.

As for Mustangs hitting the lots for dealership inventory, that could get sketchy quick if the demand is high.

The Bronco6G forum has a "Naughty Dealers" thread that's been quite active.

I know multiple people who went in to pick up there bronco on delivery day and the dealer just added 15k ADM.

I'm sure they don't like that, but probably won't change their behavior. Gotta get them outside of the enthusiast forums to stop this markup business

On the contrary, I read through some of the posts over there and there were a few dealers who changed their tune after being shamed.

A surprising number of them do read / post on enthusiast forums.

Just want to make sure i/we pay the same price as shown on our confirmation of agreement and order summary. I signed mine, i would hope the dealership honors the agreed upon price. Hopefully when everyone receives their cars they mention whether or not they paid the original proce as promised.

To your point though, as the examples on the Bronco6G forum show, I still wouldn't rest my laurels on all dealers honoring Ford's price protection.

My dealer’s GM signed and dated my order sheet with the price of the vehicle locked in. I made sure that we had agreed to a price before the order was submitted and had documentation to support that arrangement.
