In planning my "next big move," I'm leaning toward ordering from an out-of-state dealer. I've heard that they will ship to a local chevy dealer and you pick it up there.

How much will the local stealership hit you for for this service?

I was informed that it could be $200 to $1,500 depending on the "mood" of the receiving dealership. Hopefully someone will chime in soon to clear this up for me as well.

I just took a courtesy delivery last night on my 2008. It cost me $350.00 here in North Carolina.

I took a courtesy delivery on my '08 last Friday. I picked my car up dirty because I didn't want them to touch it. They didn't put any gas in the tank for me, it was on dead empty. I paid $200.

$500 in San Diego (and they treated me like they were doing me a BIG favor).

I think I paid $250. last time I did that. The dealer treated me pretty good. I told them to just make sure the car comes off the truck undamaged and then do the minimum that GM requireds them to do. I took care of the rest.

I paid $200 in April 2006 and my parents also paid $200 in May 2007 for courtesy delivery. Both of us used the same dealer here in Phoenix. It was an easy transaction as this particular dealer did not take delivery where they sold cars but instead we were directed to the their commercial truck dealership located a few blocks away .

Rather than go through the hassle of a sketchy "courtesy delivery," consider a Museum Delivery instead. That way you're actually getting something for your money.

I realize it doesn't fit into everybody's schedule, but if you're planning to take some time off sometime soon, you might want to spend it picking up your new car at the museum, checking out the assembly line and driving home through some great country.

The best plan.

$0. My out of state forum vendor paid for it.

Took delivery last Thursday, paid $250 for courtesy delivery. They treated me well and gave me a good orientation, but they only gave me enough gas to barely make it to the nearest gas station. Full tank of premium is worth about $50, but really thought this should have been included. Another nearby dealer charges only $200 for CD.

I had a local GSM tell me he'd do it for nothing. And I would've done the deal with him, but unfortunately, he left the biz. Good guy, tho.

Anyone know who gets the money from Chev/GM to prep the car---the "courtesy-delivery" dealer or the purchasing/selling dealer?

Hi,
Sorry, this doesn't have anything to do with courtesy delivery, but you did bring up an excellent point..."taking delivery in a dirty car because you didn't want the dealer to touch it". Almost every car and truck we purchased we insisted their detail shop NOT clean the vehicle for delivery. I see how these guys clean cars...with a brush And have you ever looked into the bucket, it's difficult to determine what's in there it's so dirty. Those brushes leave fine line scratches in the clear coat and sometimes ya can't get them out. I've seen them wipe down exterior's with shop towels. I'm the first to clean my car...not the dealer.
