Hi Guys,

I have a 2014 crew cab 4x4 sle Z71 and was thinking of trading it for a 16 Silverado......basically the same truck but went for a LTZ with no Z71.Rather would have the chrome grille, but to my big surprise the 16 are 6-8000.00$ bucks more money.

They are giving me 32 grand for my truck, 10 grand over what I owe.To cut a story short, I would start all over for about a little more payment for 5 years again!!!!

 

Just wondering if it is that same thing in the USA on the price rise....And this is for a double cab.

 

Thanks for your reading! GH

LTZ is a higher trim level your SLE.

 

LTZ compares with SLT.

 

Options on any trim level can make a significant difference in price.

 

Canadian base price on double cab SLT is about $9000 more than on SLE.

DC SLT base is a little more than LTZ.

 

SLT has a lot of stuff 'standard' that is optional on SLE.

 

LT silverado is a closer comparision to the sle.

 

You can 'build and price' the different versions at Gm.ca

Thanks for the reply Red, I learned that in a hurry..lol! But my 14, is sle with bucket seats,( heated) with lots of options the MSRP in 2014 was 49 900$. But you are right, slt is a 2000$ upgrade. Still was surprised the MSRP on a 16 is 55-57 000$.......The dealer still ordered a truck we built and I have no pressure to buy once it is in.

 

 

Again thanks for your feedback! gh

Then lease it for three years. Or don't buy one and be happy with what you have.

Just don't forget you get a shorter warranty with the 2016. But since your current truck is already 2 years the warranty difference may not matter in your case ...

If you want to deal, sell your existing truck on your own and take cash to dealer.

 

There is more money made on used cars than new cars.

 

My dealer told me they send 50 t0 60% of their trade ins to the USA because of our pathetic loonie

Is that because it is called a loonie?

US buyers are more gunshy this time to come to Canada for a truck than last time our dollar was so low. Yes, trucks are still heading south... but it's primarily dealer to dealer. Besides, most provinces you only pay sales taxes on the difference, so it may well still be cheaper to trade than sell your own and deal for cash.

 

(I'm one of those dealers that's been shipping trades off to the US)

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling.

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.
