Price paid?

[austingta]

I called him and the best he is willing to offer on a '14 SLT with $51k MSRP is $45617 + TTL. Pretty much in line what I'm getting offered up here.

 

Guess I got to keep looking until a great deal pops up.

He even went as far as to call me the next day and tell me he 'found' another 1000.00 rebate, and to come in and they would redo the paperwork. They did and it lowered my payment 15 dollars or so!

 

It was my third truck in a row from Covert. The incentives may be different now, or maybe the truck is so popular they don't need to come down that much. I was about to buy a Chevy and he knew it.

if you called today, the prices went up since it's a new month. also, since it's the first of the month so they're not stressed to make a sale. i believe you should focus on %80 of msrp as your sale or OTD price. getting 10k off of a 40k isn't likely.. yet. maybe next year on the '14s still on the lot.

I'm looking to get 10k off a 50k truck, not a 40k.

 

Also, big difference between sale and OTD (TTL included) price. Did you really mean 80% of MSRP with TTL included? If yes we are talking 15K+ discount.

I got mine from Covert in Austin. They are presently advertising 10K off of all SLE's ( http://www.covertbuickgmc.com/ ) - flip through the ad on the front. I found the one that I wanted on their inventory locator, and called and talked to Kent Briwa (512-364-1368 - tell him that Mike who bought the black long bed Z71 referred you). Setup an appointment and he will have the truck ready to look at. There was no haggling on the truck price, but do your research on your trade if you have one and threaten to walk if they won't give you realistic book value. This is the second vehicle that we have bought from Covert and both times have been about as painless as possible. Please feel free to PM me and I will call to discuss if needed.

I might have a contact at Covert but I'm waiting to hear back. There is a dealership in St. Louis called Laura GMC. They are discounting pretty much every Sierra 10k. They have the prices listed on their website. I called the sales guy tonight and we'll see where it goes.

 

Thanks for all the suggestions!

Well I see the Augudt incentives are 0% financing for 84 months and "priced to move". The truck I'm buying has an MSRP of $56,000. What would be a good OTD price. I pay 10% tax unfortunately. I'm hoping for $50k or less OTD. Is it doable?

I would agree with you about Covert in Austin. I bout my 2010 GMC Sierra there. I lived over 7 hours away from there and it was the best vehicle buying experience I have this far. I will be buying my next truck from them when I'm ready.. My deal for my truck consisted of 3 phone calls all totaling about an hour...

Where did you see these incentives?

Where did you see these incentives?

 

Well in Canada thats what they're advertising on TV right now.

[msaul37]

well, i'm giving up on the previous truck(the demo). went to the dealer i got my current truck from, had them look up the truck i liked.. found one in ohio(i'm in wv) that i like. that dealer has it on 'sale' for $35,868, from a msrp of $41,210(after $750 all star discount). i've calculated some and found i can get it less than that.

 

original MSRP-41,960.

-$750 all star discount.

-$5342(i have no idea what is in this offer)

=$35,868, before ttl.

however, i believe i can actually get it lower than that.

 

i get supplier pricing(-2710), the all star crew cab discount of (-3250), along with the all star option discount (750) off. i'll also use farm bureau(-500) for $34,750. this isn't counting any additional offers such as trade in assistance or loyalty, nor does it include the fact my dealer will have to get this truck from another lot. and it's before ttl.

2014 Dbl cab LT, 4x4, 5.3L, 6spd auto, tow package, bed lighting, All Star Edition, trailer brake controller, chrome bug shield, I'm probably forgetting a thing or two, and a discount on all accessories I purchase from them.

32981 out the door, tax, tags, title, everything.

 

Not too shabby.

 

How did you get this deal? And which dealer?

[patriot]

I emailed several dealers and told them exactly what I wanted, and that they weren't the only dealer I contacted.

 

Here's what I sent out:

 

Here's what I want in a NEW truck:

Email is best for me. I'm on the go a lot. I WILL NOT discuss anything over the phone. I'm seriously in the market.

Here's what I want:

Full size pickup, Chevy or GMC

5.3L

4x4

Deep Ruby

Best price gets my business. I've got lots of feelers out. I don't haggle, so give me your BEST no B.S. price.

We'll discuss my trade IF I want to buy your truck. I MAY sell my current truck privately. I won't be lowballed on my trade.

*********************************************

Dealing this way puts YOU in control...not the dealer. No stress, no pressure, and lots of competition.

A couple of the dealers CALLED me. One got told off on the phone, and all who couldn't follow my instructions were out of the race.

I HATE the high pressure sales game.

Criswell Chevrolet in MD. Russell Carter was the salesman. Nice guy. Beware the finance guy (He's Asian, and wears nice suits, so you know how to spot him). He tried to high pressure me. It didn't work. I raised a HUGE stink about it and threatened to cancel the whole thing.

They gave me some stuff to make me happy. I don't like being a prick about things, but I specified that I will NOT put up with lies or high pressure.

I did the email thing to to multiple dealers. I told them exactly what I wanted - essentially a LT Z71 with everything but Bose and a center console (if one was even available on an LT). I was a little over $10K off sticker and I had wheel locks, front bug guard, and those window guard things and a plastic bed protector which promptly came out. I also was happy with my trade in value because I knew someone at the dealer was going to buy it once I signed the paperwork so I held that over them. I don't share prices - not my style. But point being - the email thing works. I also said I will not come in or call until I'm ready to test drive. I also left after test driving. Came back and got another $500 off. I was mean.
