I am not mad about ending up in 23.Summary:
Ford: We can't build your truck.
You can remove the options you chose and maybe get scheduled.
Or you can keep your options and choose the mystery offer.
What's the mystery offer? Find out in August!
But we need your decision by next week!
Choose wisely! May the odds be ever in your favor.
I am not upset that there are supply constraints that can't be helped.
I AM mad about this. You hit the nail on the head.
Drop items you want by the end of next week.
MAYBE get Scheduled. What if I don't ? Is my rebate/discount for '23 going to reflect the lower cost truck or my original order ? Is it a flat rebate that everyone gets no matter what trim and packages they had ordered ? When Bronco packages changed, didn't the rebates/discounts apply based on the original order ? So anyone dropping stuff could really shoot themselves in the foot.
MAYBE save over your original order price tag + any incentives you had ( like Farmers Bureau ) + Ford 2021 APR rates.
You will get some penance, but we won't tell you. Probably because we hope a lot of '22 orders get frustrated, give up, and no ROVP is submitted for a '23 so we don't lose any margin making things right.
The right thing to do would be disclose everything now so buyers can make an informed decision.
I fail to understand how a company so large can fail to identify these issues before they send out an email like this that can make people more disenchanted with the brand.
