Fellow Bronco Owner,

Make sure you know Ford's incredibly unfair rescheduling policy before you pony up your hard earned money for this event. I paid $525 for 1 driver & 2 attendees back on Feb 24. Due to an illness, I needed to reschedule (less than 30 days out) for a date later in the year.

Ford wants to charge me $550 to simply change the date. That breaks down to:

$50 reservation rescheduling fee
$100 rescheduling fee per person x 3
$100 per non-driver upcharge because the fees went up after I registered.

Since no sane person would pay this fee twice to change a date, you might as well go in knowing that if you have to reschedule due to unforeseen circumstances, you'll be charged the same event price again (and more).

Thanks Ford!

MWNew, Darrel

I declined the waiver, did not need it, and folded up the $75 and put it in my pocket. No one in my group needed it either. I have only heard of one mishap at an off rodeo. Just a money maker for them...

Yeah, I figured I wouldn't need it but when it comes to insurance I'm always going to risk being over insured. (If you have it you won't need it) The potential of damaging someone else's ride is the kind of thing that would keep me up at night and I honestly thought we'd be sending it more vs a classroom in the field type of deal. Learning the features was great but the actual driving was mid at best.

My passenger (wife), wanted it, so I hit it… certainly didn’t need it, though I went some places I never expected to
