Another Laura delivery
I've been lurking on this forum for a while. I have wanted a 2015i since July when they announced the 8 speed transmission was going to be introduced. When they finally started hitting dealers, I checked prices everywhere and no one was close to Laura's price. I live in NY so I thought it would be a bit of a headache to get the car, but the price differential between local dealers was too dramatic. All in, Laura's price plus my round trip flight to St.Louis ($300) and shipping car to NYC ($700) I saved thousands versus buying locally.
I flew to Laura last Wednesday and my Yukon XL Denali was delivered to me last night, zero issues. Laura provided pick up and drop off from the airport and the transaction was completely painless. I dealt with Johnny Webber there and he was great.
To anyone considering a Yukon or even a Tahoe/Suburban (a Yukon Denali will cost less), I highly recommend checking out Laura. Yes, you do have to go there to pay for the car but even with that cost it was well worth the trip.
Regarding the 8 speed transmission, I find it to be noticeably smoother than the 6 speed.
I'm very happy with my purchase.
