I just got quoted a cost of $5.50 and $6.00 a square foot for a house slab, nothing fancy, just footings and a rectangle shaped slab. I am in North Louisiana, are those quotes in the ballpark or am I being taken for a ride?

Going by this:
NAHB: Breaking Down House Price and Construction Costs
The foundation and associated costs should be around 7% of the total estimated cost of construction. How does that compare?

I guess going by that the quote isn't too shabby. Also someone just pointed out that the foundation is included in the pour, a monolithic slab/foundation so this is more expensive because of the amount of concrete.
Thanks for the link.
