Dealer parts price gouging.

I was in the area and noticed I was low on coolant for my ZL1. Stopped at the dealer, $28 for a gallon of dex-cool premix.

Am I out of touch or is that insanity?

I ordered it on amazon for 10

Well, many of these dealerships have massive overheads that customers are supporting via these markups.

Dealers are the very worst places to get parts, and probably service, too. Unless it's catastrophic and you have an intact powertrain warranty I avoid the dealer.
