What do you consider a 'local' dealer?

(1/2) > >>

bulmer4nc:
I've been looking in my area and am limited on the manufacturers I can look at because I've only got 4 dealers I would consider dealing with here.  If I went as far as 2 hours in a couple of different directions it would open up a whole list of things that I could look at.  Is it wise to look at a dealer 2 hours away?  Or is that considered local enough for service purposes?

OnMedic:
Local is as far as your dealer is willing to drive, within one-two days notice without charging milage. That being said, if a dealer is 2 hours away and says he/she would be committed to servicing you, including water problems, within a day or two, I would be suspect! I would personally keep it within 1/2 hour!

If only I could... within 1/2 hour i'd only have one dealer to choose from :-/

I guess it would depend on the area.  
In my area, 'local' dealers are considered within 1 and up to 1 1/2 hours. Obviously, the closer the better if you have the option.

Where are you located?

Mendocino101:
I to think that what may be local for someone would be quite a distance for others....you know where your at and if typically to get most service you are an hour an hour and half away that might be local than for you...but you might also expect to pay a service call fee...Just make sure that what ever you are told at a dealership they put it in writing for you if you buy from them....
