Invoice vs. MSRP

[mtnbikefuel80]

I've been looking around the forum at the pricing and invoice threads and it seems there are several dealers willing to offer the trucks up at that price but haven't seen one in Florida. If you order from one of those dealers can they ship it to another dealer for delivery? Is there a large cost associated with that?

I contacted about 20 dealers from Gainesville to Miami, about 5 of them said, "We will match or beat anyone's pricing" I showed them Louisburg Ford's $50 over invoice, and they all said I should go with Louisburg then and they sell their Raptors at sticker. When I started looking into ordering a '14 out of state, my delivery as of 2 weeks ago would be around Feb 2014. I finally decided to just get a 2013 now and pay sticker. A dealer outside Orlando had one incoming with all the options I wanted, I asked for their best price and they gave me $2400 below MSRP. 3 days later it came in and I bought it 30 min after it was delivered. Had the truck for a week now and loving it!

To answer your question I believe it's a $750 charge to ship/deliver to a different dealer than the one you ordered from.

Thanks Maximus! Glad to hear you are enjoying the truck! I've talked to a few dealers around here in the Orlando area but they don't stay on the lot long. And when they are there they are either already sold or don't want a 24 year old test driving it! Still looking around though

I'm 25 and haven't had a dealer give me a problem with a test drive yet. I do most of my dealings over the internet. I hate when dealers call me on the phone and just say "come on in, we'll make a deal" when I live hours away. I purchased from Jarret Gordon Ford in Winter Haven. Last time I looked they had 1 Tux black in stock, and a Blue Flame and Silver incoming. They will "deal".
