It’s been posted here that Houston area truck dealers will beat any deals in south La.

I have family in League City so I go there often.

Any recs?
TIA

Tomball Ford. Ask for Jana Baker she is the sales leader. My brother and I have gotten three trucks from her over the past few years. She is awesome and will work with you

I don't remember the name of the dealership, but I purchased a F-150 from Houston back in 2011. I called three South LA dealerships and one from Houston - told them to get me their bottom. Houston came in about $2,000 cheaper, and gave me an extra $1,000 on the trade in.

Cook in Texas City is usually the cheapest.

A Co worker just bought a Ford P/U and he shopped it hard and bought from Lone Star in Houston.

Just bought at Tomball. Got pricing from Mac Haik, sterling McCall, Navasota, Planet Ford, and a few more.

Planet Ford was the closest and kept telling me they match or beat anyone. But my particular salesman was annoying and kept saying I had to come in to get the price. Had already been in twice and it was always a game. Tomball was 400 cheaper than their last quote and damn sure wasn't driving to get the same quote I already had. They actually lost my business for being annoying and I've heard that from other people. But they are such big volume, one sales guy can be great and one can be terrible.

Navasota actually asked what I ended up playing and reacted by saying "that's impossible", Haha. Tomball certainly did your typical dealership moves to sneak stuff in, but overall happy with them.

Contact the car guys. They will put you 8n touch with a dealer in their program. There is 1 sales guy at the dealer that is part of the program. Tell them what you are looking for and how you want it equipped, color, etc.. they will locate it at their dealership, at another dealer in the area, out o town, or out of state. They get complete specs and send you the drive out price without you ever visiting the dealer. Truly no haggle. Show up and do the paperwork. Costs you nothing. Get your best deal then try through this program. You will see.

Bought my 2013 diesel F250 this way through through this at Tomball Ford.
Wife bought her Lexus through car guys program at Westdide Lexus in Houston.
Brother and mother both bought through this program.

I have recently been shopping for an F250. I have found better deals in La. one dealership in TX told they had really low inventory because of the flooding from last year. More locals buying cars because there’s got flooded.

Maik haik and planet couldn’t beat my deal here. 16% off new 2017 lariat still on the lot.

That's a bit different. Very specific to have a particular package of last year's model. I never saw an inventory issue. Each place has 5 or 6 of the color and trim level I wanted. Planet Ford has like 850 F150s. Flooding issues are pretty far behind us for stuff like that. Contractors are about the only thing still in short supply.

Cook Ford has some good prices. Bought my daughters Fusion there. Cheaper than anything in Louisiana

Where did you find that deal? I looked at
Maik Haik’s 17’s still on the lot as well & they wouldn’t budge on the price. I’m in Shreveport & was trying to strike a deal before driving 4hrs to a car lot.

The sale tactics at Plant are a arse whip, I'd avoid them.

I looked at Cook ford and they had really good prices. I was afraid that once I got there the deal i was quoted wouldn’t be available. I got a email quote from Mac Haik and bought from Natchez ford when they matched. Cook Ford called everyday and that got old fast.

That’s the deal I’m looking for. I’m ready to buy if they are ready to move it. Aboulutly makes no sense that the 19’s are about to hit the lots & they don’t want to budge on the 17’s they have sitting.

I saw a few 2017's, but the 2018s had rebates that made it worthwhile. Rebates weren't on 2017s. Plus these huge volume dealerships get incentives for moving certain quotas. 2017 models aren't in that quota I guess. I don't know for sure, but I'd assume that's why. Still doesn't make a lot of sense.

We couldn't find a better price for a Ford F-150 than Ryan Ford in Sealy just west of Houston.
