I ended up finding a truck in the US for a price no one here can touch and the warranty is transferrable, unlike Dodge. The best prices I got on a ford here was 66,000 for a f-350 platinum not including tax the best on a dodge was 70,000 for a Laramie not including tax and don't have time to wait for the new GMC even though that would be my truck of choice.

So how much for the Ford, including tax, border fees and inspection?

If you have a GST number (your own business) I can get you setup on a fleet deal (even with one truck) at Airdrie Chrysler. Fleet starts at like 10K less than retail.

We have imported a lot of vehicles so at the end of the day it's not hard, flights and everything and gas and GST will all be under five thousand, so including that in the price doesn't matter what deals I get here I won't be able to beat it, I have a family friend that Owns a ford dealership and he couldn't match the price for the truck and accessories. It is also being purchased from a ford dealer in the US that has been awesome with the purchase and the paperwork

You should keep looking. You can do a lot better than 70k for a laramie dodge, and not have to go through the bs of importing. Dont forget when you go to sell that imported vehicle it will be worth less than a Canadian version.
Go to a dealer and tell them what you will pay and that your ready to buy today. And go near the end of the month, like the last couple days.

The big three all have their good and bad points, and I won't trash any brand because I have owned them all, but I would buy the Dodge for the Cummins with a proven track record, better urea system, and not having to remove the cab for any major work.

I have a few friends that own and run Ford stores so I could point you in the direction of a dealer that is actually motivated to sell you one, and I know guys that are actually shipping trucks to the states right now so I am not sure about what kind of deals are to be had down there.

Thanks for the info...


Jeremy... can you post your prices for a mega cab or crew max with a 6 speed in a 2500... laramie

Contact Harvey Carr at Driving Force in Edmonton. I was looking at buying a laramie 3500 CTD a couple of years ago and he quoted me $51,000. Decided to keep my truck for a few more years so I didnt end up buyuing but a friend of mine just bought a 2013 2500 duramax through him and he said Harvey had the best price around (not sure exactly what he paid). He said Harvey was a great guy to deal with and he would buy another truck from him for sure.
