Anyone noticed the all star edition is now almost 1k more expensive?

 

Gotta get that $750 "discount" back somehow... plus another $250 for the extra paperwork and advertising.

I'm sick of these GM dealers. They all say the same thing "we can't sell under supplier pricing". I'm thinking some of these posted prices are played with by other users to make it look better on them. But if even half were true there are still some decent deals. I'm in southeast Florida and this is what I keep hearing.

Same here in Mississippi

12 local dealer from 100 miles around give me a deal for $7900 off on SLE $4700 off on SLT

If someone give me $9000 off from MSRP on 4WD SLE or SLT I'll sign in heartbeat.

Need to save some$$$$ for 6"lift and 35'tires if you know what Iam looking for.

Cause I won't spend $6K on work truck to lift lol

The trick is to trade in a vehicle and get them to pull out the Hold Back cash and put it towards your trade so that you end up rolling over less or putting more down. They are right when they say the "supplier" pricing is set in stone, and that's fine so you have them put more on a trade from the hold back cash so you get more than book value on it.

 

That is how I work all of my deals, I purchased 3 new GM vehicles in the last 2yrs, I always get a great deal because I get them to pull out the Hold back cash and put it on my trade.

 

For example on my 2014 Silverado 4x4 crew cab, all star, MSRP 44k + tax/title/doc/etc.

 

Traded in my 07 Silverado LTZ Vortec Max, 120k mi. The book was $13,500 trade-in, I owed 15k on my loan.

 

After finalizing the numbers on the 2014, GM supplier set pricing and rebates, I then made the dealer pull out the Hold Back cash and put a bunch into my trade. They give me $17200 for my trade, that gave me $2200 down on my new truck.

 

my OTD price, everything included was $36,380.

I thought holdback was only 3% of msrp roughly. That'd be around $1300

The holdback is to cover 90 of interest of a new truck if it was sitting on the lot not being sold. I got it all in mine, with my $10k off my new denali I ordered. It's not going to sit on the lot and it's an easy give back to me and completely upfront.

How did you negotiate getting it? They just offered?

Just told them I want the holdback part of my deal, they matched a deal I got from Laura gmc in St. Louis. I know the guys at the dealer and said matchit and they did and took another $500 off as well as another $250 from a side leveling/tire upgrade I had asked for when I pick it up. Got spray liner thrown in to finalize as well. I meant to put 90 days not just 90 above. Every car has the holdback, again if it doesn't sit for an extended period ask them and say your getting it at dealership A and beat it.

Are located near St. Louis? Laura GMC does seem to be the cheapest to get a quote from but wonder what a dealer close to me in S FL would say about them being so far away. So holdback is 3% of MSRP?

If you're not getting the Hold Back cash on your purchase then you're NOT getting a good deal. Take them for everything you can, they make enough money on selling these trucks and cars.

    • Just did an injector/HPFP replacement on Pepper at 192,400 miles; close enough to 200K, RIGHT? (If 200K is considered life end and to me it isn't). But hey, to each his own.    Have never run a catch can on this vehicle. Back side of every valve looked like a new valve spray painted semigloss black. Port walls looked 'neat' (all a normal result of passive EGR via VVT) Zero build up even in AFM cylinders. Just color. It uses no measurable oil and never has.    At 155,000 I put her on E-85 and a borescope of the cylinders at plug change showed very clean pistons and valve faces. The replaced injector tips looked new. (It was the pump piston seal that was leaking). Oh well, have six good backups.    Still gets 28 mpg on gas (highway average) and over 20 (highway) on alky. UOA's look good and runs as good now as it did when I bought it. Better in fact.    What improvement would a Catch Can provide this motor?     And given all this I expect that IF I installed one I'd see some water/gas/oil vapor accumulation. Byproducts of normal combustion.   Having said that, IF my motor used an appreciable amount of oil I'd consider it a useful 'crutch' until I had the situation corrected OR if bore polished, until I junked it or rebuilt it to stave off repeated plug fouling.    I'm not telling you what I THINK. But what its DONE.          
    • Love the look. I'm a SCSB lover myself.    Two items. 1.) A spacer changes scrub radius but this also changes when we use wheels of different offsets. A little isn't a big deal. 2.) Steel wheels, alloy wheels all have different thickness. Same effect on the stud and lug nut as a spacer. When hub centric the wheel isn't supported by the stud. It's supported by the hub. The stud just keeps it all together.  
    • I had a evap sol go bad a couple weeks ago. . I replaced it.  While watching live data at the time I saw I had some cylinder 1 misfires. No MIL but on live data I could see ~50 at startup and about 70 more after an hour a drive all on cyl 1.  I also noticed that the LTFT were -5% to -15% always.  And that bank 2 is always -3% richer than bank 1. Even across all driving modes, city, highway, etc it’s always 3% richer than bank 1. So I start with the misfire. Swapped coil, plug, and plug wires from 1 to 3. No follow. I got an Injector reseal kit, pulled the D/s injector rail, swapped #1 and #3 injectors, resealed them, reinstalled and retested.  The misfire followed to 3. So I ordered and replaced all 8 injectors, spark plugs, and plug wires. Also replaced the 1 time use fuel pipes under the intake manifold.  Injectors that were in the truck since new were  Part # 12668390.  I replaced them with # 12742701 Got from RockAuto. Pretty certain they’re genuine and the correct ones. I called a friend at a parts store who told me “the 12742701 were the correct superseded part # for the originals I was replacing”. So started truck after replacing all that and it’s running -15 - -30 LTFTs. I reset the fuel trims with GDS2 and drove it for a 60 miles trip each way. There have been no changes in the LTFTs.  I checked if the HPFP was leaking into the crankcase. I removed the pvc and watched the trims. No difference.  I checked the alcohol content and it was at 10%  I’m out of ideas here. Truck seems to run great. Just always rich on the fuel trims.  Anyone with any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.  I ran an injector balance test just for the heck of it and it came back this. I’m confused.  I have gds2 and some other diag tools if anyone knows of anything I should test next.
