Jim Angel at Gary Gruner Chev GMC Buick in Madras. $4,000 cheaper than Lithia, and $3,000 cheaper than that scumbag liar Dick Smith in Kellogg, Idaho, who inflates the dealer invoice. Bought over 50 new cars and trucks in my life (over 40 were GM), and Angel at Gruner was best experience yet. Never went there (50 miles from me), did it all in 2 calls over phone, didn't need a deposit from me (may have been because I gave him the name of the old fleet guy I used at the dealership Obama closed so Lithia could move in), kept me posted, and truck arrived 5.5 weeks after order at $200 over honest legitimate invoice (Dick Smith of Kellogg LIES) with no creepy dealer add on crap - just the state's transfer fee (I used my own 26,000 lb plates off my 07). Great experience, Great Dealer, Super honest country salesman. They are pulling a lot of Lithia's business out of Bend and are killing them. Not all on price (I asked for my deal and got it without him having to check with 101 bosses up the line), but on honesty, integrity, and that personal feel.
