2012 Ford Ranger

[jut703]

Since may alliance ang Ford at Mazda, tingin ko diyan talagang sinadya nilang ganoon ang gawin. Marketing strategy din kasi yan. Baka hindi maging mabenta ang BT-50 na 3.2 kapag naglabas agad ang Ford ng Wildtrak. Isa pang reason diyan is puwede makita ng Ford kung gaano kalakas ang public acceptance sa BT-50 para bago nila ilabas ang wildtrak, makapagset sila ng higher price para dito. Which I think ganoon na nga ang mangyayari. Dahil 1.490m ang BT-50 ang wildtrak na nabenta ay 1.519m puwede pa itong tumaas.

Except that the BT-50 looks hideous compared to the Ranger.

If I was in the market for a pickup, I'd take a look at the Wildtrak but not the BT-50.

That's exactly the point. I think the reason why the Wildtrak is not yet introduced in our market is to make way for the BT-50. If they release both models at the same time, BT-50 will be gone...hehehe...

Anyways, medyo off-topic to nacheck ko na din yung BT-50, mas gusto ko pa din ang design ng Ranger. Pero sa interior hindi sila masyado nagkakatalo. Maganda din naman ang interior ng BT-50 parang car feel like pag nasa loob ka. Kaso olats lang talaga ang exterior.

Oh that reminds me check out this article...
Mazda might have a new distributor in the Philippines.

A very reliable source has revealed to us that Malaysian conglomerate Berjaya Group will take over the distributorship of the Mazda brand in the Philippines. This development comes after Ford announced the downsizing of its operations in the country. Berjaya which owns 80% of BerMaz Motor Sdn Bhd, a joint venture with Mazda Motor Corporation currently distributes Mazda vehicles for the Malaysian market.

Nakuw, pati sa distributorship nauunahan pinoy ng outsiders. Sana may Pinoy rich clan na sumalo.

I made my reservation three months ago only to find out that being reserved means absolutely nothing if you did not avail of their in-house financing. I can afford to shell out the 3% Dealer Incentive that the dealership is requiring but since this goes against my principles, I am not giving in to their demands. Furthermore, they are demanding that I subscribe to their Extended Warranty which is pegged at Php 20,000. I am not sure what kind of business ethics is at play here but I wish Ford Group Philippines takes the upper hand and castigate those who are not dealing fairly. Needless to say, I know that if you were able to pay the reservation fee, this means that the price quoted to you is final and will not be changed due to demand and supply. I am no. 6 on the list by the way.

Saan ford 'yan?

[Tj_abs]

What dealer? Grabe sila mag take advantage just to force us to avail their in house financing. Parang its one way process for them without giving the buyer to choose what they really want. I think FGP have no idea about this kinds of dealings. Konti lang kasi kikitain ng mga Sales agent Kung bank P.O. Or cash basis kaya pinipilit nila in house financing..im planning pa naman to get next month. Try muna in other dealers like LAUS group of companies etc..

[artisans]

I've already issued them a PO without the Dealer Incentive, dapat kasi the DI comes from the bank who gave me a loan, but my bank can only give 1% and the dealership is asking me to shoulder the 2%. Let me confirm first if this is just the Sales Agent's ploy or if this is really the practice of the dealership before I make a reveal. I am inviting all buyers to share similar stories to ascertain if this is an industry practice or mga agents lang ang me pakana.

I would rather give a tip to my SA for giving me good service (no pressure and I will dictate how much depending on how good the service will be) rather than give them the 3% Dealer Incentive. I was once a Sales Agent from Toyota Bel-Air (now defunct) and never allow such practice

I just wish that all Ford dealerships are transparent on their reservation lists. If you have nothing to hide post this list on your website. If you are afraid to divulge the names of those who are ordering, just the O.R. number of the reservation fee will do. Daang matuwid para sa ikakaganda ng bayan natin!

sa akin bank p.o. bahala sila ng bank ko mag usap pero di ako pumayag na tumaas yung rate which 3.3% yr. dahil sa DI w/ free insurance, nag kasundo naman SA ko at bank pinangako nya na nkakakuha ako agad , kababata ko yung SA at neigbhor lang,

[artisans]

Wow my Interest Rate is 28.41% for 5 years. Is this high? With 20% Down Payment?

sir try mo mag pa approved sa Metro B. naka promo sila 9.9% 3 yrs. free insurance & 3thousand worth of diesel,, hanggang august lang
pasensya sa mga SA dito

pancake daw yun naririnig ko sa ibang SA

[twistan_bebe]

Mga sir nakausap ko isang neighbor ko na matagal na sa buy and sell at may mga kaibigan din siya sa Ford. Sabi niya sa akin, kung kaya ko daw maghintay atleast a month gawin ko daw. Wala daw kasi talagang say ang mga SA ngayon pagdating sa mga transaction gaya ng mga 20% D.P. at dapat in-house financing ang kukunin. After a month or two siguro kapag nagnormalize na ang situation, magbabago na din ang terms nila. Ang Mazda BT-50 puwede mo bilhin ng cash wala silang condition sa pagbebenta. Mangyayari din sa ford yun.

Kaya kung kaya natin maghintay pa kahit kaunti lang, hintay na lang muna tayo. Sayang din ang malaking matitipid natin from interests sa kaunting panahon na makapag-hihintay tayo. Yung wildtrak na nabenta this week inooffer yun sa akin last week pa kaso 293k ang interest dahil 9% per annum for 3yrs ang interest nila at 20% D.P. lang. Sa almost 300k na interest, marami na sigurong mararating yun o makakabili pa ako ng isa pang 2nd hand na car. Kaya patience lang muna mga sir!
