I'm probably going to Laura Chev for my next truck.
Dealers around here ( Minneapolis area) never have what I want to trade my 22 LTD High Country for (loaded High Country 6.2 minus supercruise, multi flex gate, $3600 wheels.)and most discounts are only $2000-$4000. The $3600 wheels option is a total ripoff IMO.
My dealer in town has 7 High Countrys. No 6.2s, a few are basic with no options. 3 3.0s and 4 5.3s.
I asked if I ordered what I want it could be 4-6 months. Sad.
As far as shipping, no way.
Looks like you are around 1200 miles from Laura. Leave early Friday grab a motel nearby, then show up at Laura first thing Saturday, do the deal and head home. Not a big deal if you ask me. Good luck whatever you end up doing.
