Im considering buying/ordering a new vehicle from an out of state dealer, anyone have any direct experience with this?? Just looking to see what the potential downfalls are. There are still many dealers down here adding market adjustment costs and/or dealer installed options on top of msrp. I do appreciate that we are living in strange times right now, I understand the supply/demand issues but some of these dealers are really putting the screws to people when possible with these add ons. I have spoken to a few dealers of Ford and Toyota that are doing msrp and less without any add ons, looking at middle of the road trucks (f150 xlt, & Tundra sr5). Ill probably just order an f150 (not a ford guy/ brand loyalist at all- my research and quotes have consistently shown the f150 xlt with what I want in the truck is the better value compared to the similarly equipt sr5)
Another hidden litle gem of info Ive learned so far in this process is majority of the high volume dealers Ive spoken to told me (when I inquired ) the OEM/ Factory extended warranty that can be bought as long as the vehicle is still under factory warranty is backed by the manufacturer and is a national product that is attached to youre VIN # and has no connection to which dealer sold it. This pretty much alleviated any concern I initially had about buying a vehicle from out of state from a repair standpoint and the dealers that Ive spoken to all confirmed this..
