All of Austin area Ford dealers suck. Most of them have 15k+ ADM. Houston is better since they have more dealers and are more competitive in pricing and is where I ordered mine from.

Long story but one of the Coverts claimed they had Raptors ordered and coming in soon. I reached out to him and he passed me over to sales guy at Covert Hutto. Sales guy quoted me $30,000 ADM if I was interested. I told him I would pass.
My wife ordered a Bronco on the first day the order banks opened up from Covert Ford When it was time to finish the paperwork (March 2021), a salesman sent an email to a personal email address at around 4pm telling my wife that she had to come down that evening or they would "cancel" her order. We were on Spring Break at the time and she didn't get the email until the next day. She emailed back and he didn't have the courtesy to respond. We ended up complaining to Ford corporate and the sales guy was fired.

Same exact thing happened to me. They said they had multiple offers within minutes of posting the truck on their website (which they apparently do with every vehicle they get, even if it is already sold).

It’s common process with many manufacturers if not all. Every time I order it pops up on their website when it’s built.

I hate Ford now for the sht I experienced w my buy. I get it.
That sucks. Enjoy your new truck!
I’m from Ga but had a deal (5,000 over msrp, so not a good deal)to buy a gt350r from Texas dealer back in 2018. Sent them copy of my license and deposit. Was going to f1 race in Austin the next week but changed my flight to Houston to pick up car. They sold it to someone else and it cost me around 300 to change flights. No apologies, nothing but a text saying the car was already sold.

That’s great news and wish you the best of luck getting what’s going to be an awesome truck! Hope they play any games as I experienced.

Thanks Bubba, def been enjoying it and surprised I like the Tremor so much. Unlike Raptor it’s needs some help from factory. Adding a coilover lift, tires/wheels def helped it put. Thanks again and good to hear you got a 21!

I agree, I’ll def send the documents and deposit receipt to them so they are aware of what these dealers are doing. It’s crazy how bad one dealer is from another.
Covert Ford completely screwed me over and didn’t give a sh*t but I drive 30 mins to Mac Haik and have amazing experience and customer service. (Just wish they had a a Raptor to sell me)
