I initially looked at ordering from Idaho, I sent out emails to both Idaho and every dealer in the Portland, Oregon area. The Local Dealer to me which is in Hillsboro, Oregon asked what sort of deal I was looking to get. I sent them the quote from the Idaho dealer and they basically said ok. The only difference was the $1000 extra that I would not be taking due to not wanting to finance with Chrysler. Not having to travel was worth the $1000 extra.I am surprised at the number of people who ordered from an out of state or non-local dealer. I wonder if that’s unique with a wrangler that dealers are willing to turn away business so easily. I understand they are trying to make as much as they can on each sale, but 500$ profit is better than none. Even locally I found over 1k In difference, and they were unwilling to match. When I went further (Kim in Conway) it was over 2k less.thats substantial, and shows that there is some room in these to negotiate if a dealer wants to.
Congratulations on your soon to pick up JL, I am counting Dow the days until my 5hr trip to pick mine up. My Daughter is going to take her first plane ride with me to go get it. Wife can’t go since I ordered the dual top and the entire back is taken up by the gigantic box and maybe factory wheels (if I end up with Mopar beadlocks)
I am sure the local dealer is hoping to make more money off me with add-ons like warranty and extra eagle beaks in the headliner. But those I can easily say no thank you to. The MSRP for my jeep was right at $53000 and I should be getting mine for just at $47000. So I feel like I did ok.
