I have purchased two vehicles from Dave Smith. The first time, I took DS's price to my local dealer and asked if they would meet somewhere in the middle between their price and the DS price. They weren't willing to budge at all, so I bought from DS. For the second vehicle, I went straight to DS without messing with the stubborn local dealers. Both purchases were thousands less than what the local dealer could do. The first purchase was about $7500 less. Second was about $5000. The real trick is to catch the rebates at the right time.
A word of advice is to check the options list carefully before agreeing to purchase. My father made an order from DS and his vehicle didn't come with the entertainment package, even though he had requested it. Upon looking at the options on the order sheet he signed off on, it wasn't listed. While my dad was at fault for not checking the sheet closely enough, DS made it right and had the package installed.
You state you bought the second truck for $5,000 less than your local dealer could sell it for but also state you never went to the local dealer on the second purchase. How does that work?
