what's so hard to believe?? lmao. it's been happening for weeks on the 14s

10-12 off sticker isn't rare.

 

I understsnd. I guess it's so believable for me since I bought one 12 days ago

for $10,325 off sticker with no trade in or other bs inflated numbers. it was the easiest

deal I've done at a dealership to date FYI.

 

So why didn't you hold out for the $12K off MSRP if the negotiations were so quick and easy? If $12K off MSRP isn't so rare these days, why did you give in and sign with just $10.3K off MSRP? That seems like quite a bit of beer money you left on the table there. :>)

No, Its not rare to CLAIM $10K- $12K off sticker, you're correct there.....

 

What is rare, is when somebody can actually BACK IT UP with proof.

 

Well, lets see... I paid $41,097.75 after Tax, Title, License and Doc fees. I am in Southern California and all those fees add up to approximately $4K... what's so hard to figure out???

 

I put ZERO out of pocket and had a check from my credit union for $41097.75 ??? What can't you figure out?

enough guys, c'mon

 

trucks are plastered with $8000, $9000, $10000, $12000, and even $14000 off all over the place around hear.

 

bottom line is the more it costs the bigger the discount and the more volume a dealership sells the bigger discounts they offer.

 

will any of you have a life changing event one way or the other based on if a random stranger on a forum gets a better deal then you did?

I don't care what any one else paid lol. it's just hilarious some of these guys

try to disprove a price paid when it's a fact lol guess I'll have to post my

window sticker and sales documents when I get to the house, not like they won't

come up with something else to dispute the deal.

A lot of times those banners or window paint aren't referring to discount off MSRP, they are claiming you save that using 0% financing against a made up interest rate they assumed. clicking on the link above once you are in their inventory site the average discount appears to be about 3k off MSRP.

sorry I'm confused now, you said 0 out of pocket but the paperwork you posted says a down payment of $5000???

In California manufacturer rebates are considered "cash", hence the reason for paying tax on the amount before rebates.

 

Id assume same applies for most/all states.

yep. same here. even though I put cash down. it wasn't until I negotiated the

price I wanted to pay

There seems to be way too much confrontation for a simple pricing thread.

Buying a truck is like building the fastest car, someone will pay less and someone will be faster.

Easy bro.

 

I couldn't figure out why you originally told us the price was $41,928 minus the $5K in rebates resulting in a price of $36,928. Then when asked to back it up, you posted scans of a tightly cropped lending disclosure, showing the price was $46,097 minus $5K in rebates resulting in a price of $41,097.

 

The numbers changed, so I questioned it. Enjoy the truck.

Who questioned you? I don't remember anybody questioning the deal you posted. Nobody is trying to disprove anything here... The other guy changed his numbers, so we questioned that. You seemed to get all defensive about your deal too, but nobody questioned it that I can see. You said saving $12K wasn't rare, so I then jokingly asked why you didn't save $12K on yours.... that was it.

 

I'm fully aware you can save $10-$12K off MSRP on these trucks as I posted my paperwork showing how I saved $11.5K off MSRP on my truck, so yes, I do know it can be done.

    • Very interesting thread. Definitely didn’t expect to see this kind of mileage out of that engine. 
    • 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.
