Oh for sure. I definitely did. Just know that there may be some on this forum that are ready to pounce and may have more time/energy to haggle that markup
MSRP+10k would have you in serious negative equity once life returns to normal. Highly recommend wait and order a 23 at MSRP. There are dealers out there that do that. Mulinax Ford in Florida will do that with no extra fees of any kind on ordered units and reserved units in transit. (as of now anyway).
Mullinax is marking up trucks that people back out of though. Right now it is at $3,000 which is still better than $10,000.
Yeah it is just on ordered or reserved build/in transit units. Mullinax will discount $1000 on some model ordered units. Maverick, Bronco, Bronco Sport or Ranger is not one (although MSRP). Whats good is they do not charge the typical Florida $999 dealer fee or the crazy $400 electronic filing fee. No add on packages either.
What is the difference between ordered and reserved/in transit? Aren't they the same?
I spoke with a Ford dealer today in Orange, CA who was charging $46,999 for an XL. $27,000 over MSRP! If you do not believe me, please call Villa Ford and confirm for yourself.
The Maverick is a great value at MSRP but not beyond that. For that kind of money I would be in a F150 Hybrid or a Lightning if you could bag one. That being said I wish I had ordered 20 Mavericks and opened a lot across from Villa Ford.
Ordered is building to your specifications and reserving is claiming a dealer allocated stock unit with an assigned VIN either awaiting build, being built or in transit to the dealership.
Pretty sure they are marking up the dealer allocated ones as well. The only ones that are not getting marked up are the ordered ones people take. Anything else gets $3k added. I've seen dealer ones on their site with a mark up. At least that's what the one in Apopka is doing. I had my salesman call and offer me one that was arriving that a customer backed out off and was charging me ADM.
I saw where an f150 lightning sold at auction for $110,400.00
I have a reservation in but it will be the $40k Pro model if Ford ever gets around to building an entry level Lightning. Ford has my $100 deposit and that 40k is no doubt subject to change.
