70K rebel coming in to my dealer with level b and no power folding mirrors or blind spot monitoring.I was informed that BSM addition would severely impact my delivery time. #MirrorGate #BSMGate
Nope, nope nope, especially when my Limited is 63K70K rebel coming in to my dealer with level b and no power folding mirrors or blind spot monitoring.
I wonder if there is some metric Stellantis keeps showing how many "sold" orders are actually sold to the person who ordered the truck. If so, I could see a dealer being penalized if they don't sell a "sold" order to the person that ordered it, even if it is not the dealer's fault.Couldn't they just turn around and sell it for more?

Oh, I believe you, I just think it's crazy.I will give you the site if you want to check it out for yourself.
The common sense factor feels high in that assessment.I wonder if there is some metric Stellantis keeps showing how many "sold" orders are actually sold to the person who ordered the truck.

if you figure it out you get the award of the year!Does anyone know how dealer allocations work? It is the only logical thing I can think of as to why a lower VIN gets delayed being scheduled for build when something in the 190k range goes D1 almost immediately after order. Should be easily refuted if a high VIN Mark Dodge order goes D1 over comparable lower ones.
that is the way it is supposed to work but only the factory and dealers know for sure.If I'm understanding correctly if a dealer has a window sticker for their inventory that unit has possibly shipped? Cause my dealer has 8 and I don't even have d1 status.
Having a window sticker means it has been released by the factory and invoiced to the dealer. Doesn’t necessarily mean it has shipped (that would depend on the shipping logistics).that is the way it is supposed to work but only the factory and dealers know for sure.
That is the case for Ford (60% must come from reservation holders) and they penalize the dealers by taking away allocations.I wonder if there is some metric Stellantis keeps showing how many "sold" orders are actually sold to the person who ordered the truck.

Actually the dealers don't know any more than Ram Chat. They can access the same status sheet that is updated by FCA to give them d, d1, build sheet, I, JB,JS, Window Sticker. Then they can get some tracking info after it is invoiced to the dealer.that is the way it is supposed to work but only the factory and dealers know for sure.
Yes the dealer is only authorized about 18% selling vehicle to another customer average. Then they loose ability to order vehicles for customers..I wonder if there is some metric Stellantis keeps showing how many "sold" orders are actually sold to the person who ordered the truck.

Here is an instance where Stellantis prioritized Demons sold at or below MSRP for dealers.That is the case for Ford (60% must come from reservation holders) and they penalize the dealers by taking away allocations.
Ford caught dealers making up fake Bronco customers, and it's had enough
Dealers are scamming ways to get all the Bronco allocations they can, but the Blue Oval is onto them and taking steps to keep them (more) honest.www.cnet.com
Do they just get sent what the manufacturer will give them?Yes the dealer is only authorized about 18% selling vehicle to another customer average. Then they loose ability to order vehicles for customers..
Curious...did you get the power folding mirrors....??? been reading a lot about certain trims losing the power folding mirrors and i would hate to have to fold them manually to get into my garage in the dead of winter.....Picked up my truck this afternoon, LOVE IT!! Ride is soo smooth compared to the F150 I traded in. Waiting was hard but it’s very much worth it seeing, sitting in, driving the truck. Going to install the mx4 tonneau cover tomorrow that’s been sitting in the garage since June, and enjoy this beauty!!
