Why is it that Ford dealers are able to have brand new cars sitting at dealers collecting dust while waiting to flip them in two years for profit. One would think Ford would rather an enthusiast be driving any sharing them will everyone on the road. Very disheartening for folks who didn’t get selected for allocation during the process…….

If I remember correctly, cars were allocated to individual principals of dealerships, not the dealerdhip itself. Just as the rest of us, they can do what they want with the car.

So a Ford dealer sells millions and millions of dollars worth of Ford cars and trucks. Why would Ford not want to "thank" that principal with an allocation?

I fully understand the support of the owner and dealers, but then for them to have them listed as 1.5M -1.8 with basically no seat time.. i mean at least drive them and enjoy the fruits of your labor.. but hey its the way of the world.. Profits Profits Profits.. just sucks for the normal folks who can afford them but don't own dealerships..

You can purchase a New style Ford GT for a lot less than 1.5M-1.8 if your interested with a few miles on it and road ready in excellent condition! And it‘s one of one for 2017 In American Racing Livery!

Ford wants the cars in the public eye, and sitting in a Ford dealership is pretty public.

Isn’t that an oxymoron?

This is exactly how I feel about lottery tickets. They refuse to sell me the winning numbers.
