Just speculating a little here. I think most of us assume Ford representatives of some capacity monitor and act as Admin on this board. There's many discussions of the order process they rolled out for Maverick and many complaints. I'm not looking to start another complaint thread here, but expecting Ford to change the process going forward. Example: there were many people openly placing multiple Reservations and orders (many without even seeing 1 in person, much less test driving) and expecting they will walk if they don't love it or something else comes up- and knowing it costs them nothing with no deposit required by most dealers.
At the same time people are complaining about Additional Dealer Markups over MSRP on pricing stock units sold off their lots. There's been a couple members on here who have said they already sold their newly arrived Maverick for a profit? Now, we have a poster advertising on here he will sell his ordered Maverick with his own added markup before he even takes possession of the Maverick?
Not saying I like it, but I think we should expect Ford to start requiring a non-refundable deposit along with confirmed personal ID on each order placed to lessen chances of gaming the system with bogus orders and trying to flip new "retail" vehicles for personal profit due to low entry level cost of Mavericks. Maybe other deterrents to tighten up the system as well so it works better with less uncertainty all around?
Just food for thought
