It makes sense that demand, thus price, would be much higher in Idaho than in New York City.

Huh? keep in mind this includes PA, NJ, and upstate NY areas, it's not just "The City". I really don't think Idaho sells more Jeeps then the NY-NJ-CT-PA area's which are all within 100 miles of each others borders.

The " best price ", which is the comparison to which you referred, is 16 miles from Staten Island, NY, which is NYC area.
Furthermore, the NYC trade-in prices will be lower than Idaho, because of supply vs. demand.

I never consider trade-in anywhere. It should have no consideration for what you are actually paying for a Jeep.

Once again, your comparison of NYC Metro Area prices, to Idaho, is flawed because of the supply/demand factor in the equation.
The NYC Metro Area has many more dealers trying to sell Wranglers than Idaho does. Moreover, Wranglers are more likely to have utilitarian value in Idaho than they do in NYC. Thus, Wranglers sell for more in Idaho, whether they are new or used.
In any event, it seems we both agree that expanding one's buying search area may result in significant savings.
I live in a semi-rural area and I often save thousands, on vehicle purchases, by internet searching, and buying, within a 150 mile radius, which includes the Washington, DC Metro Area.

Yes definitely throw in some zip codes up to 200 miles away towards populated cities and see what you get back.

I prefer to tell the truth and have them show me each part of the bottom line separately.
That way, I get the information I want without evidencing that I am duplicitous. ( I didn't say I'm not. I just don't like proving it. ).
