A friend tried ordering a truck through Chapman (PA) today and was told that they had paused accepting orders.

Not sure of the reason although we can make some assumptions…

Anyone else heard anything similar?

 

I literally ordered one today.....other side of the country (Oregon), but it wasn't even a question on whether or not they would.

 

Maybe because of the amount of orders CHAPMAN has received with the 4% under invoice price.

Just a guess

 

What dealership? Find any good deals here? Wife wants me to abandon my current order and go for an 450 now because "we might as well have what I (she) wants if we are waiting". Pretty much all I've seen is MSRP although I think some have gotten a good deal from Gresham Ford.

 

Thats actually the dealership I ordered from. I'll end up under MSRP (not quite suer how much), but they're honoring X-plan for me, which I couldn't find in Colorado where I live. They were really transparent. said they get 1-2 SDs delivered per week, and I have roughly 45 in front of me.

 

thats rough, good luck

Far as I can tell they are the only ones here doing anything under msrp or even trying.

 

I sent them a build sheet on Tuesday to get a price, and got no response. Granger had me a price within a few hours so I went with Granger, they were super responsive.

 

I ordered from Granger on the 23rd no hassle, they thought August delivery date. None of my local dealers would even try to come close.

 

I had 2 local dealers just hang up on me when the said MSRP, and I asked them to match 2% under invoice. I ordered on the 24th, Maybe I’ll see you up there.

 

Have not heard of dealers doing that but honestly glad they are. I ordered through Chapman in November and they seem to be so buried in orders they can’t keep up or keep track of them all. Rumors that ford will be shutting down the 2022 SD order bank in the near future too but nothing solid that I’ve seen.

 

Interesting. I just went to their site and the pop up that Offered 3% below invoice is no longer popping up. I wonder what is happening?

 

Every dealer has an allocation. If that dealer hit their allocation, they can't order any more of that product until the next allocation cycle.

 

Chapman was accepting orders with no deposit and no commitment vs Granger requiring a $1000 non refundable deposit. I wonder how many Chapman customers will walk away from their orders? Perhaps Ford shut them down from taking orders. I no longer see the 3% below invoice pop up on their web site.

I have 2 trucks on order. A F-450 Platinum from Chapman at 4% below invoice and a F-350 SRW Platinum form local dealer using X-plan. Both were ordered without a deposit.

 

I would wager many won't walk away... after waiting so long for an order and not knowing if, or how much longer it would take for another order to come in from another dealership, it would be hard to walk away from it, and especially after seeing it sitting right there on the lot. Besides, they should still get their "3/4% under *current* invoice" price, it will likely just be a few thousand dollars more than what the original price was when they ordered, making that "deal" less of a deal. Looking at the dates on your's, it looks like you will get hit with the extra price increases too...

Saying all of that... it is crazy to think of how many Super Duties are still on order period, not just from one dealership. Considering that last year the 22 order banks opened in mid March I was somewhat expecting the 22MY orders to get stopped in the next month or 2 anyway. It will be interesting to see just how long they actually continue to build 22MY SD's.

 

I live in Washington and ordered my F350 from Frontier Ford in Anacortes using x-plan. They price protected my order and the process was great. Some other Ford Dealers on the West side of the Mtns are asking $10,000 to $15,000 over MSRP and getting it......
