Museum Delivery vs. Dealer Delivery Question

I am thinking about ordering a C7 with museum delivery. Do I still have to pay the freight charge of $995 listed in the configurator in addition to the museum delivery cost of $990 even though I would be taking delivery myself?

Yes you still have to pay for both of them. However, I've heard that museum delivery is worth the extra money!

I agree. I've heard nothing but good things about the museum delivery.

Yes delivery fee is thanks to federal law. Its BS but suppose to keep all dealers on the same page as true MSRP pricing

Did not know this was a result of a federal law; I have long thought it was the result of the contract with the car hauler company.

Back in 50s and 60s I had an aunt and uncle who would come to Michigan from California to take delivery of their new cars. The charge if picked up in Michigan was around $10 and if picked up in California around $160. These are 1960s dollars, when a new car could be had for about $3000 and a Cadillac or a Corvette for about $5000.
