Price negotiation on 2016 orders?

I ordered a '16 but am not financially obligated to buy it. My dealer knows what my out the door price is and thinks we can get there but we won't know for sure until the incentives are announced for the month I take delivery. I have Costco, USAA, credit union, and a couple of other possible discounts. Hopefully it won't be an issue.

I say the same thing in all these posts, just go to laura gmc and that is what I would pay. If they are not there yet I would wait and see what they are offering.

 

They have the same equipped truck I bought back in march from a local dealer for the same price

USAA quit GM discounts about a month ago. Credit union ended at about the same time...

I was told the same thing, glad to hear it from somewhere else!

Wow didn't know that. I used it on my challenger this spring and two chevys two years ago. USAA the biggest thing was the 1000 off. yeah it got you to invoice pricing, but you can get that on your own.

Some of these discounts come and go that's why I listed all of my possibilities. They might be back by the time I take delivery. IIRC, Costco currently has supplier pricing plus a $300-700 Costco gift card depending on your membership.

I'd wait. 42 K for a double cab. I get its a 16 but you could get the same truck in a 15 now for probably 8K less. Probably could buy LED head lights, and a phone app for cheaper then that. Wait till the 15s are gone if you really want a 16 IMO

 

Just picked up a 15 crew Z71 leather ect, 4x4, White diamond. Stickered over $50 and paid $35. Same truck.

From looking at the Laura link above it appears GM did not improve the backup camera quality for 2016!

I'm tempted to jump on the 15s, but with GM Employee I can get close to them already, so it makes sense to get the newer model if I can get them to come down just a little more.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Atlas · Posted

      On the subject of OLM, Gm's OLM tool may be more "informed" than others brands. I recall OLM's in mid-2000's Chrysler products literally counting down a set number of miles. That's all the OLM appeared to be.    I would actually expect GM to be able to explain the parameters that their OLM takes into account from a high level. No, I would not expect them to disclose their software coding or data analysis around their parameters.   So we're talking about two different topics, so to continue the subject on the other one, I'd be curious to know how much "standard particulate matter" in fresh oil is able to be filtered at first start by a fresh oil filter. How much particulate matter is enough to "matter"?   I.e. how much of a "lever" do we think this equates to (variability in particulate content, in fresh oils, between different makes/brands, some which filter less, and some that filter more).   We can say that more particles = more wear = shorter engine life as a logical statement and use that data with a little marketing to scare people into selecting a more refined/filtered oil. Using a similie, is this like deciding to forego two alcoholic drinks in a lifetime because we're worried about the potential impact on lifespan? Are there numbers which translate the ISO test results into a quantifiable increase in wear for a given engine/use case?

      I'm pretty sure it doesn't actually recalibrate the speedometer it just changes the wheel speed sensor inputs to the computer. The truck still thinks it has stock tires.

      I apologize, I missed this post, at risk of going off CURRENT TOPIC.   I'm not saying it is BS, I'm questioning how much information is being held back. GM is NOT going to spell out exactly every parameter in the algorithm. Liability, intellectual property, etc.    I'm not naive enough to believe that it is as simple as revolutions, coolant temperature, miles, time; are you?    I don't do irrational either, and boiling the OLM down to four simple values that I could code in an afternoon (I'm not a coder) is irrational - unless it suits your agenda to ignore it.

      Chris 21 I appreciate your constructive response. !!  😉😉😉   The 6.6 is gas.  Correct me if I’m wrong but by recalibrating the speedo you’re correcting the shift points of the transmission on these trucks.?.

      That is a huge misconception.     Bigger does not always equal safer.  Modifying does not make it safer either, with exceptions.   Think of this.  Your truck in stock form is capable of emergency maneuvers, proper stopping distances, its handling is designed around the factory wheel/tire packages, etc.   37s and a lift?  Now you've affected your braking distances, handling and ride control.  You've raised your center of gravity higher.  Your front visibility is now obstructed more than stock, same for your rear.  Does it look cooler?  Yes.  Does it now work as good as it did from factory on road?  NO.       As for my mention of exceptions?  Say you had a sedan or crossover.  They typically come with all season tires.  If you swap out for a performance all season or a summer tire, you improve your car by lowering its stopping distance (better braking because of traction) and improve the handling (regular and emergency) of the vehicle.  That is an actually improving modification.  My old 2019 LD 1500, I ran UHP all season tires on 20in wheels in a factory offered size.  It improved all aspects of how it drove over the Duratracs it came with from the factory in the stock 18" tire.
