In this particular instance you’re doing what customers do all the time:

I sold so many of these pre-owned out of rental fleets. Good price point, had all the equipment people needed, and with an extended warranty the fear of reliability was covered.

There is a much more eloquent way to explain this than what I am capable of, but in general with car loans the bank will only repossess If they absolutely have to. Some banks don’t even report a repossession to credit bureaus because it makes it difficult for their scoring system to authorize lending to that consumer…

Interesting site. The group that bought my dealership is marking everything up. Just spoke today with one of my old sales managers and she said they did an order on a Bronco Raptor at 25K over MSRP.

Here is what I always saw as the problem - dealers like to sell what THEY think people want to buy, not what the customers actually want.

This was the last vehicle I launched before I sold my franchise, and it was so poorly done.

I had a customer threaten a lawsuit when the Lane Keep Assist in an F150 worked as designed, but her reaction caused her to hit a median.

This seems to fit everything I’ve heard from people regarding the Kia experience.

I really hope this vehicle goes well for Ford. The brand alienated so many consumers with the Focus and Fiesta. I bought several customers out of our small cars when it became obvious no real support would come from Ford.

A few years ago I gave one of my salespeople the go ahead to sell Raptors at $1,000 below MSRP. We were quickly overrun with order requests and were selling raptors to customers all over the country. I sold a Shelby GT350 Heritage Edition at MSRP and all my dealer contacts thought I was crazy.

I sold my Ford franchise in early 2021. I can say that nothing Ford does will ever be easy, or practical, or convenient in any way.
