Hello! Glad to be a member. I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations of a dealer in the Chicagoland area who was easy to deal with, who I could start a dialogue with prior to the 2023 order book opening up? It looks like Highland Park Ford has good reviews in general, and my nearby dealer Golf Mill Ford isn't exactly well received.

No markup. Price as shown on the DORA signed by me and the dealer at the time the order was put in.

This was the case for by Bronco and my Maverick.

They accepted my X-plan on the Maverick.

Jason Conn @ Joe Cotton has told me he'll accept my Z-plan on an order, I'd think he'd be willing to do MSRP. Give him a call and ask.

+1 for Bredemann Ford in Glenview; Chester Gilbert (Sales) has been straight, responsive and honest (ā€œitā€™ll be 9+ months, minimum, w/o any glitchesā€) since before the order was placed 9-21-2021. MSRP, no games.

Infer what you will, I have to drive by Golf Mill Ford to get to Bredemann. Most recent confirmed Maverick ā€˜bend over markupā€™ at GMF was $10k.

Good luck with your search.

As someone who bought from Golf Mill Ford I would also advise to steer clear of them.

You would think the largest volume dealer in the Midwest for like 20 years would be able to sell at MSRP but the greed runs deep.

I believe any will do MSRP on orders. Visit your favorite dealer.

Golf mill offered me $9,000 for a 2 year old mint F150 RCSB STX with 8,000 miles when the 2015 Aluminum cab models came out. I'd never visit them again. I kept the truck 3 1/2 more years and got $17,500 trade from a different dealer,

You would be incorrect, however.
That's how it should work, but that's not how it actually works.

Both my local dealers I've dealt with in the past quoted MSRP. I could call more, but don't see the point. Granger Ford I believe is 3% below invoice if you want to travel. It sounds like you have a greedy dealer.

Looks like you're on the North side but my dealer on the SW side has been good. Willowbrook Ford in Willowbrook has been pretty straight with me. Rod Baker in Plainfield (also SW) has been good.

Just cuz I was driving byā€¦

GMF was on my way, stopped, a salesman scurried out, showed my a white Hybrid Lariat he had hidden inthe back lot.

Windshield sticker: ā€˜22 LikeNew!ā€™

There was no Monroney Label, just ā€˜Full Factory Warrantyā€™

38 miles, GMF bought it for a stated ā€œ8 k over MSRPā€. I asked ā€œHow much?ā€, then stated (after he said the number)ā€¦

ā€¦and you said that with a straight face!ā€.

$49,999.00

Like New! (Yes, itā€™s 1 data point, but stillā€¦)
