With the gas prices rising, I bet that full size truck and SUV prices will plummet very soon. If you are in the market for a new truck or SUV, it might be a good idea to wait a while. I have a feeling that we will see $ 10k - 15K or more off the sticker very soon.

Thats how I got my truck about 2.5 years ago, all and all it was about $10,000 off including tax, title and spray in bed liner.

yeah but we were in the height of a recession. i don't think it'll hapen again. GM will just slow production down, probably doing it already on the full sizes... at least if they learned their lesson they will.

I bought my truck on Jan 1 2010. That was about the best time to buy, I think. The dealers were strapped for cash and no one was buying vehicles.

My truck had a sticker price of over $36,000.00. Of course my wife knows how to deal with the salesmen, (she was taught by her dad in what order to discuss things and not let the salesman change subjects on you) anyway, we got our truck for about $24,000.00 plus all the other fees, which was a heck of a deal for all the options it has on it.

I love my truck and plan on keeping it until I am too old to climb up into it. (install smiley Emoticon here).

maybe where you guys are in the country. around here? it's between $500 below invoice and $500 over invoice. been that way a long time. i've bought many new GM's over the past 7 years and it's rare they will go into their holdback. maybe on a vehicle they're paying interest on that's been sitting there for 4-5 months, other than that it's take it or leave it. you guys are lucky. only time i wass able to get a deal like yours was when GM had their red tag sale in september '08. got my Sierra All-Terrain for $27k from a $36 sticker.

 

all above is obviously pre incentives, just negotiated price before those and GM card points applied.

Yah 0% for 72 is all fine and dandy but you loose all the rebates ect ect. seems like you are better off to take all rebates and incentives and get traditional financing. got 3.75% on mine last summer through http://www.capitalone.com/autoloans/

they send u a blank check and u go shopping. No fees or obligations and check is good for 90 days. Very convenient....

Yea, GM's been awful quite on their current finance deals. I got 10K off my truck back in Aug 08. Wanted/tried/& failed to get a 2500 HD Turbo Diesel late last year & haven't seen any deals close to the 14K Super got off his.

Truck / fullsize rebates are HORRIBLE right now. $2500 off. Big deal.

 

0% for 72 months means nothing. You still pay retail price.

 

Back in Feb 2008, I bought a 2008 Sierra SLE2 Ext Cab 4x4 new truck. MSRP was $35,700. Paid $22,300.

 

I think I'll never see that type of deal again.

You never know what will happen. It all depends on how high the gas prices will go and for how long.

They give you a $ 2,500 rebate after having jacked up the sticker price by $ 3k in just one year. :cheers:

Yep,

 

I bought mine a couple weeks ago and got a $5.5 in rebates!

 

It was priced below what the dealer was selling a 2-year old similer model with 40k on it.

      Gas Prices

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.

      Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.

      Correct.  2019-2021 model years are serviced by a different p/n.  19420611.  Recall 2021s use 19420611.   The recall engines 2022-2024 model years are serviced with 12740076.     The difference between 19420611 and 12740076 is GM changed injector size for 2022.  The injectors are smaller on 12740076 with smaller injector bores in the cylinder heads to match the smaller injectors.  So you can't install a 19420611 in a 2022-2024, and you can't install a 12740076 in a 2019-2021.     Both engines are the replacement engine p/ns that are in the L87 recall.  So both of these are the updated engines.     Here's a version of the L87 recall with the p/ns for all the parts needed.    RCRIT-25V274-7075.pdf   Note it shows 19420611 and 12740076 with an asterisk to a footnote "Use the VIN and the GM Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) to determine which part to order if two or more part numbers are listed for the same part, as it may vary by vehicle options."

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By 2017Z · Posted

      Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.
