100% agreed. She’s one tough cookie. 3 days after I took home my 2019 I was sitting at a red light and got rear ended by a Dodge ProMaster 3500 whose driver fell asleep going 35. I jumped out and when I saw his broken trash Dodge I assumed the worst of what I was about to see on the ass end of...
Just dropped my 2019 off for the rattle along with 4 other TSB’s. Finally found a dealer who didn’t turn away TSB warranty work AND to my indescribable surprise…after all the fighting and hard times the other two dealerships gave me over warranty service work…they put me in a Platinum for a week.
My 2019 is identical aside from me having the factory spray in bed liner and hard tonneau cover; 52k miles. Was offered $60k and $63k as trade in. Ive looked at what they are selling for with similar miles as I’m in the very slow process of trading in for a Gen 3 and all more or less mid 60’s so...
I’m looking for a pair of comfortable walking shoes I’ll keep you posted. Just got off the phone with another dealer who has 4 2022 Raptors posted online for sale. Turns out They have none in stock. They ordered 4 with a non-negotiable $15k ADM. they have yet to receive an anticipated build...
There is zero incentive for dealer service to make warranty work, TSB related or not, a priority over out of pocket or third party ESP work. None. And while it makes sense, this was news to me and something I learned first hand last week. I took my Gen 2 in for 4 TSB related issues this past...
These guys already are. Not Ford specific though they accept submissions for markups from any Make and dealer, compile and post them, along with sending the lists to the Manufacturers. Will it do any good? Maybe, maybe not. But their website is also useful to consumers as you can search and...
Bought my dad a Tesla earlier this year. Downloaded the app. Took me 20 min. Delivery confirmation email the next morning. Only way for Ford to bypass the state laws the way Tesla did is to develop FordPass or similar to incorporate everything from choosing your vehicle to financing and checking...
I can’t wait to be able to order my Gen 3 in a matter of minutes through FordPass instead of watching paint dry at a dealership while they put on their lab coats and try to scientifically explain away why they put a $20k ADM on a Raptor.
Wow. Talk about customer oriented service. There is definitely a growing rift between dealers and Manufacturers and that will hopefully lead to some type of law reform where customers will be able to choose how they purchase their vehicles. I surprised my dad with a Tesla for his birthday. Like...
I’m right there with you. Gen 2 2019 52k miles. I’ve never been at a service department and found myself calculating how much it would cost to bond out of jail for shaking someone violently.
Made an appt and took her in for: metallic grinding in 2WD both front wheels (IWE issue), exhaust...
Agreed. Musk was smart in finding that “showroom only” loophole. We have two Tesla’s in the family. Both purchases were completed online through Tesla in less than 20 minutes. No hours wasted at a dealer playing games or watching them take numbers from one place and sticking them elsewhere as if...
***** I sht you not last week I was in the express lanes and out of absolutely nowhere comes this Discout Auto Parts aftermarket buy one get one free Tundra and this guy has his windows down with his middle finger up looking at me. I waved, hit my train horn, and bid him farewell. Batsht crazy
Lol I was planning on dumping the service issues on Ford but at this rate she’s going in Monday for a transmission reprogram TSB, front wheels actuator grinding TSB, a post cam phaser replacement rattle, a wastegate rattle at idle, AND a second torn steering wheel airbag cover along with a dead...
Oh I misread I thought you did trade it in for a low ball. 102k happy miles driven is what matters. 41k… what are you trading in a Tacoma?! I’m sure private party will pay more. Just wait and see. With all these ADM shenanigans used Raptor values are going up.
How low if you don’t mind me asking? High mileage? My 2019 trade in offers were both low 60’s at 52k miles but then again those were dealerships with astronomical ADM’s
He’s still nuts. I got on autotrader and did an “any distance” search of 2022 Raptors. Called a dealer in Texas. They have 3 at MSRP. When I told him I was in Florida the guy said the owner of their dealership has always been loyal to the manufacturer and while they are well aware of the ADM’s...
Contacting Ford did zero for me. I have a 2019 Gen 2. Went to trade in since every dealer around here has 2022’s on their lot. Minimum ADM $15k. So I tried to go through two other dealers to place an order and they flat out told me they wouldn’t do it and to go elsewhere or pick from their...
