Looking into a Sierra tomorrow. Was going to take advantage of the 0% and no payment for 120 days. Just curious is there a certain percentage off MSRP I should look for?

take the rebate......I heard the deferred payment applies regardless of 0 %

 

you would have to weigh the rebate and 0% but just the financing isn't good enough....you still have flexibility on how fast you want to pay it off regardless, but youll pay less interest if you get standard loan....to get 0% your credit is already solid so....

Thanks for the response.

So in order to get the 0% I’d most likely have to just settle for whatever rebates they offer and not negotiate any more?

You generally would get fewer rebates to get 0%.  They basically roll the interest into the cost of the vehicle.  It's a shell game.

its usually nothing on rebate only whatever the dealer discount is. but they will make a play for either or I am sure.....with a lot of peeps getting 12k off plus youll never pay that much in interest....not on a low interest loan anyway and if you can get 0% than surely you can get 3-4% from credit union....maybe less

 

seems a lot of buyers can get 12-13k off so no reason why you cant...just have to be willing to walk away

Is there any specific dealers most people are going to now for the best deals.  When I bought back in 16, Laura was one of the best.  Not hearing much about them on this forum.  With all the possible deals I'm looking to possibly upgrade.  I'm in Nebraska, but willing to travel anywhere for the right deal.

Laura still has good pricing though others are getting similar with dealers around them.....on the HD trucks it seems to be a bigger factor as discounts aren't near as much as their little brothers (1500)….and Laura is consistently 8-12k on HD models, on 1500 just about everyone is giving deals.....just have to throw some feelers out and see what comes back

 

or find guys that have purchased on here and see if you can contact their dealers...especially if they are close to you

Where does this Laura work? Lol I’m new around here.

I wish I would’ve waited a little longer. Bought mine 2 weeks ago and only got 9k off with rebates on a Trail Boss. But I’m also in Southern California which I noticed they sell a little higher. Would’ve had a little more bargaining power considering the economy now.

I got 2.59% for 60 months through bank of america.

exactly.....would you take 3% plus all discounts or 0% for 72 or 84 months.....you have freedom either way to pay it off however you want

True. I’m happy with the truck anyways and got a payment lower than I expected at 3% so it’s not bad at all.

stingy mofos out here....always take the rebate even if you qualify for 0% you will still get low digit single and will always be ahead especially at rates that are available now.....they are using rates to suck people in because they know the rebates/discounts overall are customers best friend.....i may be taken a trip out of state

 

i was gonna get that truck last august but damn the price they were getting was damn near full pop...custom TB was a joke so got an RST for about 26% off MSRP....which was fair....lifts and wheels are easy but since i might be trading up to 2500 i am keeping it stock

the truck I’m looking at is around 40k msrp.  With using the 0% finance how much negotiating power do I have to get that price down? The incentives they have (without using the 0%) bring it down to about 32k

 

as a back up plan I’m gonna see what kind of rates my credit union is offering. But I was also interested in the no payments for 120 days

    • Have considered installing a DC to DC charger in your camper to replace your isolator?  
    • Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.  
    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?
