Price paid?

[paragod689]

Understood nando. What's holdback, 3% of msrp?

[dobdabomb]

Its not a 3%, not sure where someone got that and ran with it. Holdback is a 3 month security basically for loss of interest due to a vehicle sitting on the lot not sold. For a mid $50k truck your looking at around $1500.

All the price around here south they offer most $7000 off and $300 for paper work BS lol

I really consider flight to laura gmc and get the lifted SLT for the price of stock SLE.

I'll keep update if I really purchase from them.

Don't be afraid to travel. One way tickets can be cheap and sometimes it is well worth the hassle.

 

I ended up traveling to a different state to make my deal. The out of state dealer I used seemed to be well versed in selling to out of state customers. I pitched an OTD price to them, that covered the truck, the accessories I wanted, and also all taxes and fees. Even though I was from a different state, they were able to roll all the state taxes into the deal and we negotiated an all encompassing OTD price. When all was said and done, they had looked up what my states sales taxes were, and figured it in, they also sent me on my way with two different checks made out to my state's Secretary of State Office for both my new plates and also new title/registration. Along with the two checks, they also included a receipt showing that I had paid my sales tax on the purchase also. It was obvious that it wasn't their first time selling a new vehicle to somebody out of state. It was all quite simple and painless.

I say do it! I drove from Kansas City to Laura to pick up my truck that I special ordered from them. No hassle no BS...easy transaction. No one locally could touch Laura's prices. In fact they told me that Laura's advertised prices were not what you would really pay. They were wrong and I couldn't be happier.

[Bkew]

Are located near St. Louis? Laura GMC does seem to be the cheapest to get a quote from but wonder what a dealer close to me in S FL would say about them being so far away. So holdback is 3% of MSRP?

 

I picked up my GMC SLT Z71 (Sticker 50,345) and paid 40,400 for it from Laura Buick GMC. The paper work processing is only like $175 on top of that. I could not find any deal remotely close to this in Denver and someone posted do not be afraid of a one way ticket. To St Louis was only $132 one way. (I used points though...) I would recommend Laura if you do not mind driving it back. They quoted the price and actually beat it by a few hundred when I actually got out there.

[paragod689]

Bkew, was that price without taxes I assume?

[BlueWrapper]

Is there a Laura like dealer for Chevys?

[Bkew]

Bkew, was that price without taxes I assume?

Yes. I have to pay the taxes in Colorado. They will not collect for my state. IF I was smart I would registered it in MT with the farm and avoid taxes =)

For those of you that bought out of town or state. How do you deal with the included service/maitenance/recall issues?

 

Are your hometown dealers obligated to service your truck even if you didn't buy from them?

Any Chevy/GMC dealer will be glad to perform your service work. I use one local dealer for my covered oil changes and tire rotations. I didn't buy my last two trucks there because I got a better deal elsewhere. Their service department is great and convenient so I use them.
