Re: EBG:: posting 05/09 on buying from other dealer's available inventory
I am SO MUCH on the same page with you! I actually ordered a Badlands High Package, with tow and a few other options, last November, and was resigned to waiting for a year or so. But I kept checking other dealers' inventory, and engaged in a few on-line chats with sales associates. Then on April 29, another dealer (Herb Chambers Ford, Braintree, MA) texted me and said they had two cancelations, a Badlands 4-door and a 2-door Wildtrak. (Perhaps somebody's portfolio collapsed? Thanks, Joe!) Long story short, I made fast tracks there and snagged the Badlands Lux/Sasquatch/Carbonized Gray for a lot more than my earlier order, but: I'm turning 75 this month, and I decided to splurge significant $$ to get it.
I'm not canceling my order. If it comes through, and Broncos are still in short supply, I'll flip it. (Hmmm...I wonder if thebronconation here would let me post it?)
I have 500 miles on it, and am enjoying the ride and learning curve. I plan to get to the New Hampshire Roadeo for orientation and training, then take it to Maine logging roads, deep mid-state. This summer, I'll be in Utah along the Nevada border doing research for my novel, about a month. I love the national parks, but I'm more of a "middle-of-nowhere" type of guy.
I'll try and post a few images this week.
