1. A Mav used with 16,000+ miles should not be marked up $10-$15k over msrp. That is more than a lot of new ones where a buyer canceled.
2. An XL cannot be FX4. Black Onyx seats on the description is a giveaway that this is an XL.
3. We all know the real price here but a lot of people do not...
There was other good stuff I liked in that video. The orange door handles are also screwed in behind the door panel so that is also a big job to try to switch out.
LM buyers, when you check out at a grocery store, do you go to the longest line? I think you are spot on Dave, the math is out of whack.
80% of LM orders are hybrid but prior to 2023 launch Ford notified LM and all dealers that only 35% of all builds would be hybrid. Tim's solution would have...
It make sense from LM perspective to grab every thing they can. But sucking up orders from around the country without disclosing their allocations is reckless. Tim should have warned people about his allocation status before accepting any order.
I read they had at least 100 roll over from...
Yeouch, 800 Mav orders? I would hate to be waiting in that line. I hope they disclosed how many allocations they will be getting. I can't imagine it is 800 when I read about other very large dealers only having 100-200 Mav allocations. If so, Tim will have a ton of pissed off people. He should...
Dave, I agree with you, LM sucking up orders from around the country is reckless.
I ordered my XLT luxury cp360 hybrid June 2021 from my dealer 3 miles away and received it Jan 2022 with no feature removed. I even got the factory spray-in bedliner. Back then I thought I set the wait record...
I read you original reply where you said you commute daily to Salina KS. So you do work at LM. Just make sure you do not take more orders than allocations this time around. That is not right.
100! That is way more LM orders than I thought that were never built. You sound like you work there, I would never think 100 people still waiting is acceptable. They should be upset they were not warned LM did not have enough allocations to fulfill their orders.
It makes no sense to order from...
No matter how big a dealer is, they only have so many allocations. That is why a lot of their orders from last summer never made it to production. No matter how wonderful you may think he is, Tim did his buyers a disservice by not warning them that he did not have enough allocations to handle...
Another idea Aaron, you may want to keep both like this guy. Spread the miles on each they will last twice as long and protect you from likely price increases every year due to inflation.
Aaron, is it unethical to buy a stock for $10 and sell for $20? Of course not. Order a 2023 it will take a year. Use the 2022 until then my bet is you will make $5-10k. Don't feel guilty our ecomomy is based on capitalism, just like Carmax and Carvana do when they mark up vehicles to the market...
Don, it is a mistake to use a dealer all the way in KS!! Contact Dean at Robbins Ford in Costa Mesa. No games, no dealer add ons, great guy, just msrp. And when the truck is delivered you sign the contract with Dean, not some wizard behind the curtain in the finance dept that tries to upsell ex...
Kip, you will make a mistake if you drop 360. 1) No power mirrors 2) It can save you from a bad accident if you get distracted. It is worth waiting for. Here is a good video I saw that covers 360.
