Trying to buy a truck online and denied

because I live out of state. Online salesman is saying that management won't allow them to sell to out of state people because of bad experiences. WTF? Anyone ever experience this? Is this even legal? Seems discriminatory due to my location.

Did you tell him that you will happily take your money elsewhere?

Wonder if they would sell you a car instead of a truck. Did you ask?

Plenty of places will take your money.

This is a red flag for you or anyone considering buying a vehicle from them.
This tells me that they try to get you in the dealership with empty promises and once you get there, they low ball you on the trade and try to sell the vehicle at a higher price than what was agreed upon. They probably did this with an out of state person and that person called them out... loudly!
So they were forced to sell the vehicle at the lower price just to save face with the customers that were there. Now they just don't deal with out of state buyers to avoid this.
Illegal? Probably not. But they want to continue with their low balling efforts and you might put a dent in their plans.

When I bought my truck in Texas, the manager told me that he was surprised I was able to get the money for it because people from Louisiana generally don't get loans for out of state vehicle purchases. No, idea why, but that's what he told me.
That was the 2nd truck I bought in Texas. First was financed through Whitney, and I paid cash for the second.
If it is at a dealership, ask a Ford dealership here to get it for you and buy it from them

Who the hell buys a truck sight unseen? Are you out of your mind? Even it is new, I'd never go about making that huge of a purchase in such a reckless fashion.
