Price paid?

drockhold · May 30, 2014

I agree on waiting. I ordered a 2014 Dierra Denali 1500 in March. The deal was supplier pricing and rebates of $2350 off of a sticker of $53555. 39 month lease, 2.65% interest rate, 59% residual, 12k miles per year and $1208 cash out of pocket. Monthly payment was $527.80 and inuses tax and fees. The truck finally arrives yesterday and the rebates now are $1250 and the interest rate went up on the lease and the payments went to $568.27. I just sent a not so nice email to the dealer sales manger. I want the. To honor what I agreed upon when I ordered the truck 10 weeks ago. Have a meeting at noon today with them. Anybody here got any advice for me to do?

^{Why lease the truck? I bought mine on an 84mo. loan and my payment is only 478/mo with $0 down! I didn't care about having a long term since my rate is only 2.74%, even if I pay off the truck I will still only pay 40k TOTAL for my Truck after all interest and payments!! That's still 4k under my 44K MSRP!!}

I just bought a 2014 Crew cab 4x4, it is a Texas Edition with heated leather and Mylink. MSRP was a little over 46k and i got it for $35,900. About $10,200 off sticker with no haggle. I was very happy with my experience with the dealer, it was worth the 3 hour drive.

It seems the biggest deals are in the All-Star and similar Texas edition trucks.

Mind if I ask which dealer you got the truck from?

Thanks

On and All Star Edition, you can get about 10K off MSRP if you get a decent dealer.

Holiday Chevrolet in Whitesboro, TX. Very honest and worth the drive. I found them on Autotrader

I did a lot of research before picking a dealer to place an order. I ordered a 2014 Sierra CC SLT All Terrrain with 6.2, Nav, Plus Package and MSRP with MSRP of $51925. Best price I got was from a dealer in Huntsville for $1500 back of invoice plus any incentives available at time of pick up. The truck just got here but I am going to gamble and wait until Tuesday to pick it up and hope that the June incentives are higher than the May incentives of $1250.

So pretty fully loaded All Terrain MSRP of $51925, my price before incentives is $46,880. Including May incentives it would be $45630 or about 12% off MSRP for the exact truck I wanted

I am self employed and also playing the tax deduction game. My CPA is figuring out what is best for me whether to lease and write off 90% of the payment plus expenses OR buy the truck and depreciate it over a longer period of time. I've already checked with the dealer and the rebates and incentive cash are the same whether I lease or buy. I'll know in the next hour.

I tried to buy a truck today. I get supplier discount. I build the Malibu seats. I also have a Pontiac Grand Prix for trade. The truck stickered at 45,000. They wouldn't budge off 38,900. Seems like a terrible deal. They didn't even really seem to want to work with me until I did a credit app either. They said we haven't met our quota. We're gonna be aggressive in the pricing. Seems they're only aggressive in trying to get me to buy a truck that's too much

Walk. Go to another dealer.

I contacted eight dealers via email, telling them exactly what I wanted, that other dealers were contacted also, and asked for their best price VIA EMAIL. Several called me on the phone and tried the high pressure bit.

The worst one:

Ring Ring.

Hello?

"**BIG VOICE**

" HI, I'm Big Ed, at the Chevy dealership, and I hear you need a truck...etc. " (Basic old-school high pressure car salesman tactics.) He pissed me off in seconds.

I guess following directions isn't his long suit.....He didn't get the sale.

The ones that paid attention tried to give me what I wanted, and I went for the lowest price, out the door. No pressure, no bullshit.

Using the email method, I was in control, not the salesman, and I saved about ten thousand dollars off MSRP for my All Star Edition.

It works.

This x1000000. I don't get why people want to set foot in a dealership these days unless they are going to drop of the check and pick up the keys. Negotiate your price before you set foot on the lot even if to test drive....The dealer loses all the edge when you do this.

2014 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali 5.3 v-8. After a 30 minute meeting we settled at $540/month with $1208 down, supplier pricing, 39 month lease, 12K miles per year, $1850 in rebates and they threw in a bed liner and cargo organizer. Sticker was $53,555 and supplier pricing was $49,990. U S Bank lease rate was 2.35%. I love this truck I'll post pictures soon.

Hey guys, new to the forums and this is my first post. I am hoping to purchase a new truck at the end of the year and was wondering if you think the numbers I came up with will be doable at the end of this year. I'm looking at getting a 2014 Sierra or 2015 F150, which ever one I can get a better deal on.

If I go the GMC route, I want a 2014 Sierra Crew Cab Standard Box SLE 4WD 5.3L V8, with SLE Value Package and Front Cloth Bucket Seats. Do you think I could get this truck for around 37K including TTL? If not, what would be a reasonable price?

I'm leaning towards the end of the year to make the purchase in hopes that there might be some used ones with low miles on them. If not, I will just buy new.
