This is how something new? For as long as I can remember you purchase from a dealer out of state. Then have the car shipped via commercial truck/trailer. 18 wheeler would pull onto your street, use the lift, and back the car off the trailer, right in front of your house.

It’s just not marketed and more of a automotive enthusiast or motorcyclist inside knowledge thing to get a better price on a car/bike buying out of state . I’ve done it and had a brand new sportbike, shipped in the original crate it came from in Japan, to my front door. Doesn’t surprise me though. Some large mfr commercial “With out new insta option, there is no need for a dealer we ship to your door like Amazon”. I mean the American public are a bunch of yokels who are complete and absolute suckers for marketing. I mean they are hooked on it like a crack addict. Market anything like they need it, show emotional commercial, and market the living f out of it and it works every time on people who aren’t smarter. Ford will probably make a profit on the shipping on top of the profit of the vehicle itself. Look at CUV’s, how popular they are after every mfr there is has shown commercials of Chad and Karen driving it down some dirt road then later laughing around a fire roasting marshmallows. LMAO. It’s literally nothing 90+% will ever do. They also show them doing things they really weren’t built for but hey, it’s the “feeling”. You cannot underestimate how stupid our population is. Quick, they are gonna run out of TP, better stock up your entire bathroom will rolls bro!
