Man that thing is nice. $48k sticker doesn't seem too bad. Obviously, whoever ends up buying it or any Bronco, is going to be paying over sticker. We're probably going to add a bunch of accessories and whatnot to it before we sell it.
We can't sell it until it doesn't have 6k miles on it per Ford. So, as of right now, it's going to be a service loaner and a car each salesman can take home.

I'm sure it is one of the dealership's Mannequin units, which is not for sale until 8 months or so. Ford has built mannequins for each dealership, which can get up to 4 units total depending on the dealership sales volume. If a dealership sells 20% or more of their allocation to non-order buyers, there is a penality for doing so that prevents the dealership from getting its next fiscal quarter build allotment.
Ford recently set an email to order holders that stated due to commodity availability, it will be manufacturing non-customer-orders, but Ford has not yet clarified how that affects dealer stock units. Ford originally stated it was fulfilling all customer orders (up to March 19th) before dealership stock units would be built.
