Out of state purchase, Mike Pruitt Honda - Click HERE for Original Thread

After searching for 2 months for a full sized SUV we decided to go with a Honda Pilot. We drove all the competition, (Durango, Explorer, Pacifica, Grand Cherokee, Murano and even a few 4 door trucks).

We then tried to get a deal locally and struck out. Every Honda dealer within 100 miles wanted MSRP, the best internet deal we could do locally was 300 under MSRP.

During our research I found some folks getting great deals in OH, but OH was 450 miles away. A quick email to Mike Pruitt Honda in Akron, OH confirmed a price of $400 over invoice and that they would find an LX or order 1. The search was a bust so the internet sales manager ordered a Silver LX and honored the agreed upon price. 2 weeks later the car was in and we picked it up yesterday.

The internet sales manager and the finance manager at MP Honda were stellar. In and out in under an hour. It was by far the easiest car puchase I've ever done, and this is our 3rd car purchased over the net.

While we were in OH we visited the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but that's a story for another post.

I cannot say enough about our out of state purchase, I'd do it again in a heart beat. Mike Pruitt Honda is the best!

We did the same thing a week ago. Pruitt offered us the same price and no one around here could touch it!

Nice leisurely 7 1/2 hour ride home. And the service was excellent. Of course as soon as we pulled out the dealership, i experienced my first hail storm ever, in my brand new Pilot!

BTW, where in upstate NY are you? Sounds like we might be pretty close to one another.

I too purchased my 2003 Pilot from MP Honda in Akron. Very nice people, and you can't beat their prices. Only wish Mike had an autographed football for me.

tfmccull, I'm about 140 miles north west of you. I'm 45 miles due west of Albany. JT
