Any dealers in the Seattle area taking orders yet?

[skwirl]

I've called a couple dealerships near me and they all tell me to use the Ford reservation website (which I've already filled out on day 1).

Has anyone been able to place an order with a dealership in the Seattle area yet?

I ordered mine through Bowen Scarff. They charge MSRP, no dealer mark-up and add a limited lifetime powertrain warranty. Quick responseand helpful. Let me know if you want more info.

Also, no deposit required to order.

Wow, that sounds quick and easy! Were you able to do everything over email and receive the Ford order confirmation afterwards? Yes, definitely interested in going through your sales person if you don't mind referring them.

I used Ford website to build and reserve. The,, I got email from dealer. She confirmed my build before placing firm order. A few text messages later it was done. Ford sent me confirmation email. Mikala Valdez

Thanks, sending her a text now. Really surprised about the “no deposit required” part, one dealer here said they could finally order today but want a $1000 non-refundable deposit.

Evergreen in Issaquah is taking orders as well. No X plan pricing or 3% under invoice at either Evergreen or Bowen Scarff from the conversations I've had with them.

That’s who I spoke to that wanted the $1000 non-refundable deposit. Is that what you put down too?

I haven't ordered yet because they said the Maverick isn't a available with X plan pricing, even though others here have gotten it. It's not much cheaper but when paying sticker anything helps.

$1000 nonrefundable is just dumb. I'd walk away.

Yeah, agreed. Bowen Scarff with the zero deposit sounds great.

Just want to report back for anyone following along.

Texted Mikala @ Bowen Scarff last night and she got back to me this morning. Had me create a build on Ford.com and submit it as a reservation with their dealership selected. Within a few minutes she replied back saying she received the order, sent me a build list for review, then I received an email from Ford.com saying my order was submitted.

Super smooth, MSRP with no markup and no deposit required. Highly recommend them if you're having trouble with your local dealer. Thanks again for the recommendation @PapaDave!
