Waiting room

[Cactusjk]

I also did 1.9%. Rates have definitely gone up. That is why I decided to keep my current Badlands, and forgo the few upgrades and with 60 miles on my BL the dealer was lowballing a trade.

Does anybody who picked up their order recently have insight into Ford Credit's current financing rates? With the feds hiking up interest rates I'd imagine the vehicle market is also affected. I financed my Big Bend at 1.9% and I'm slightly worried I won't get a rate anywhere near that when I pick up the Badlands in a few months. I'd love to hear what folks have been offered from Ford.

Mine was 3.49%. I was a little surprised as my last one was 0.99%. But yep, rates have gone up.

Sad....just sold my 2001 Ford Escape (the template for the sport IMO)

What are you looking at for model/options? In general the more boxes you tick the longer it takes. Hopefully it’s improving for yall now.

You are thinking about ordering at the wrong time. Order banks for 2022 are closed and don’t open for 2023 until August. Production on 2023s doesn’t start until basically November. Those first 2023s won’t be delivered until about Christmas. I’m sure there are a lot of people with orders in and waiting already. I would guess you would be waiting until February or March.

Thanks .... let's say, what is the minimum wait time?

2+ years ago I was waiting and waiting...watching for the spy shots on test vehicles...had to buy something else. I lost track since I got tired of Ford's delays.

But now my first new car ever (2001 Escape)....just sold. :-(

I’m guessing you might have missed my reply above, so scroll up.

Yeah I wasn’t thinking about the model year switchover. Eric’s guess is probably just about as accurate as any now for a well reasoned timeline.

Filthy. Bath time tomorrow, or Sunday.

It took a total of 24 days on the train to make it to Virginia. Now just waiting on trucking to take it to the dealership ?

Six months in the Waiting Room and I picked this up yesterday. ???

I can't say enough about how enjoyable dealing with Granger Ford was.

I love this color. Such a unique red.

I'm picking mine up today. I'm so nervous after reading horror stories of other dealerships!

well, if you still have another car to drive...and you like the BS, order it anyway.....

you never know, Ford may raise the price again. Many of us here are getting a car 2-3k off the current MSRP 'cus that was the price when we ordered.

Also, a few months time to the start of the '23 production isn't that long of a wait, ....time goes by quickly if you are contemplating the order....but a warning, time goes by VERY SLOW when you have a order in it's like this Waiting Room is within a time warp bubble.......

I will have to see what changes there were for 2023....do you lose any money if you never take the order?

I know from my last reading to get signed copies of everything and

pricing since some dealers have been unscupulous.

Thanks.

Ordered 3/28. Cactus Gray Big Bend with tow, moon roof, convenience package (kicking myself that I didn't see the cargo org!)
Built 6/25 (my boyfriend's birthday too!)
Just got to dealership today and they are going to push it through to pick up on Monday, the 25th of July.
Trading in my 2021 Base camp (I needed something and just drove this one off the lot)
I'll miss it a lot but glad to get what I wanted soon! I don't know why mine seemed to go through a lot faster than most. but very grateful!
