Purchased my 2018 Chevy Silverado double LT allstar cab 5.3 at MacMulkin Chevrolet.

 

Sticker price was $45,000, MacMulkin price $40,000

 

They advertised the truck for $29,800 (of course there was no way to get that for most people). But they were pretty damn good there. They knocked $6,000 off with GM rebates (trade in rebate, finance rebate). Then they gave me a "lease rebate" of $1,500, which brought it down to $33,500. They were offering an additional $3,000 if you were a GM lease customer (I wasn't) and a military rebate of maybe $500.

 

I also had to finance through GM for at least three months, which gave me a $1,500 rebate. After three months I can refince at a lower rate with my local bank (GM finance is 6% on a 72 month new car loan).

 

All in all I got what I wanted, we were still off in price so they upped my trade by $3,000. I was out the door at $25,000.

Sounds like one hell of a deal!  Post pics when you can!  I bought a 2017 LT last year and absolutely love it.

I still haven't discovered how to post a picture without it going sideways. Lol.

 

But so far I've driven the thing 400 miles since I picked it up Sunday. Love it. Managed to average 21mpg on my first tank so far. I'm hoping I can average 24mpg a week (I drive like an old lady).

You don't have to wait 3 months. Just payed mine off after a month and a half.

That would be damn near impossible to know. Too many GM dealer incentives/kick backs

Does anyone know the true mark up on the GMC Sierra 1500's??

You mean from actual cost? No way would GM let that out. 

 

Invoice to MSRP is easy to get. I have the invoice to a truck identical to mine from when I tried to order it. Invoice was a lot higher then I expected. And I got the real invoice not the customer version that has a markup in it. 38,000 vs 44,000.

Looking to upgrade after 10 years from my 08 GMC CC 4x4 5.3 4-speed SLT. Local dealer has a DEMO 18 Chevy LT 5.3 4x4 6-speed leather bench seats Allstar plus package with 3800 mi for just under 39k. 14k off sticker. Decent price?

Sorry if this post doesn't belong here. The financing, rebates page keeps looping back to here. Mod feel free to move. 

-My question is do any of you guys feel the incentives will get any better on the 2018 Silverados? My lease is up in three months and just wondering if I'd be better off to wait a bit longer for better incentives or just go ahead and re-lease now. There is currently the incentive for Pull Ahead Lease which would still be there if needed in two months. I am over my milage allowed by about 3k currently, but the dealer says they will absorb that. 

Any insight will be greatly appreciated.

    • 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.
