doglover Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Are authentic dealer accessories prices jacked up for big profits like in North America? I want to buy a 3.2 wildtrak 2015 financed over 4 years. It comes with the usual freebies ( 1st class ins, window film, mats, box liner, etc) for a slightly elevated interest rate of 3.85% with 25% down payment. This was their offer so I am thinking I could get better. I want authentic accessories like bug deflector, snorkel, window rain guards, car cover for 50% off the standard price. I plan to stand firm on the accessory discount. Do you think they will accept? Or can I do even better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

transam Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 With the problems I have read here regarding that ride you could be on a winner................ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoonman Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 (edited) No dealer is going to give you a 50% discount on those accessories. also I don't think Ford do a snorkel and car cover as an accessory so you will need to source those from a 3rd party.

bkkjames Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 last time i checked safari snorkel for my truck was about 6k. Car covers 900-5000 baht. 3rd party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansnl Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Most dealers have an agreed 3% space, pricewise, to do noce things. If paying in one go they might even go to 5%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They show one in the back of my brochure. Probably way overpriced. I asked about the stainless steel roll bar at the CM Ford dealer. I laughed when he quoted the price, & even the salesman thought it best to look at accessory shops. Not surprisingly, Ford didn't have any in stock, & yet to see one on a Ranger.

doglover Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 that interest rate seems steep for a new truck. It's because it's the top model. They run of the mill models will be almost 1.5% lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To my surprise the snorkel is 18,500B! At that price I might as well order an ARB safari snorkel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok I understand - cost extra for the 5th piston? Still have no idea why the interest rate would be higher on a top model however. But if they can get it, why not it. Have you looked at financing it elsewhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doglover Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 So much for standing firm. I did manage to get a truck cover thrown in the deal though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was in the official Ford Ranger brochure at launch. Maybe they never materialized. A bit like that chilli orange paint that looks nothing like the photos in the brochure. http://www.ford.co.th/en/trucks/new-ranger/accessories/exterior# Edited August 21, 2014 by MESmith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
