I just pulled the trigger on a new AT4 1500, Pacific Blue. It is in transit, so no pictures yet. Not much room for negotiation due to low inventory, and the popularity of the AT4 package. They seem to only be on the lots out here, at most, for 3 weeks.

 

I don’t have a complete breakdown at the moment, but:

 

MSRP: 64,500

Price: 54,000 (included GMC rebate, and healthcare/first responder) + $75 doc fee (down from $499), then the standard tax/title/license (tax out here is over 8%). I also am having them throw in a cover for free.
 

Overall I was hoping to get them down to 50/51k, but it just wasn’t going to happen.

Can you please put it in a format we can all relate to?

 

MSRP

Dealer Discount

GMC Rebate

First Responder Rebate

etc....

GMC cash allowance is $6,000, estimated first responder $2,995 so the rest is dealer discount.

Thank you, I don’t have the paperwork in front of me to remember the exact breakdown outside of the cash allowance, I was more focused on the overall price and having them figure out how to get there. Once I get my paperwork and pick my truck up, I’ll get an exact breakdown for everyone.

 

An additional reminder, since they couldn’t/wouldn’t come down as much as I would have liked, I did get them to give me the warranty and paint protection near cost+$200, so just a reminder that those items are negotiable as well.

Too much! But, I had to have one! Broken trans 4 months in, dealer has it a month, GM says too bad buddy. Dealer added some nice scratches on the hood/fender area too from whatever. Stuck with it for 3 yrs now-lease, fk it, let it fall apart. Had many Silverado's before this one too. Very disappointing!!! And seeing all the other or same issues with these new trucks?! Not worth the price of entry! But I need a truck, don't know what I get next.

Gotta pay for all the freebies and other people's folly my friend.  I lived in SoCal for 3 1/2 years and wouldn't go back under any circumstances!

Paid 52k OTD (63800 MSRP) for my 2020 TrailBoss 6.2L fully loaded. Sold my ‘17 for 27k with 70k miles but it was spotless.

GMC Sierra 1500 Denali CarbonPro

MSRP 71,700

-4,200 first responder discount

-6,000 rebate

-750 FCA conquest rebate

 

Total 60,750 (10,950 off MSRP / 15.2% off)

 

Inventory very low, they weren’t willing to negotiate much other than rebates (told me it would be MSRP minus rebates until I mentioned first responder as in they aren’t doing any additional dealer discounts).

 

Love the truck.

That's sound advice. I just arrived less than 24 hours ago, and I'm frustrated by all the stupidity in SoCal. I could go on a rant here, but will spare everybody. It was either SoCal or DC, so I decided on the swamp with less stink. Fortunately, it's only 3 years, and I have no obligation to become a California resident and start paying those ridiculous California taxes. Even my truck will be registered elsewhere.

    • How many miles were on the truck when you bought it and was there some form of oil change history generated through a dealer or an independent shop although not much would show up if the owner had changed their own oil. Just curious if it was a maintenance issue or if there was something off from the start, surely one would think the original owner would have realized it was using a lot of oil, its hard to go back in time and find out the true story of mysteries like this. Well hopefully the warranty company will go for it and just install a new engine, that would be the ideal outcome.    I still have so few miles on my truck as per not quite 9000 and will be changing the oil shortly which has around 2700 miles on it or so and its down so little on the dipstick from where it was at the beginning of this oil change that I could make the "claim" that it uses no oil but in reality would be a very small amount, less than a 1/16 of an inch. Just driving empty/not towing and easy driving so hard to say what it would do if it had a load behind it for oil consumption. So far very impressed with the very minimal oil usage. 
    • I have a 2015 Silverado and sometimes I can not get in to the truck. I use the key to unlock the driver door. Something is locking the truck when I unlock it, last night I left the truck open and this morning it was locked with the mirrors folded in. This happens while driving so it is now a safety issue. I reach down for the folding button and they open, then they close again.  Any advice, thank you,   Ed
    • Did you ever find a resolution to this? my 2019 Silverado 1500 is showing the exact same headlights issues with the exact same symptoms.  would help a ton if anyone has any advice on this or better yet a known solution..
    • Wawa and Meijer here have ethanol free (88 & 89) I use for my mower and lawn equipment.  Its not much more than reg.  I paid $3.29 a few weeks ago.  
    • tl; dr I've now reached the 6th floor of hell. I'm chronicling my journey for my morning readers.   Pulling the top of the intake apart was moderately easy but it involved a lot of parts, connections, and minutae. I was preparing for the new fuel lines to arrive ("nut and bolt kit" it's called). The fuel line connections are notched and held in place by the manifold and a metal plate with a T27 screw.   It's on the back of the intake, under the firewall, with little clearance, and two hard metal fuel lines in the way. I was using Franken-tools (weird combinations of 1/4 inch ratchet with/without an extension, with a bit holder for my T27) to get in there. One of my sockets and bits fell off and has yet to emerge on the floor. I lost a second setup and that's when I almost started throwing tools. But that was the point at which I had gotten traction on the Torx head, and it promptly stripped. No more traction.   I started humming "1-877-kars-4-kids" because I was about at that point. You know what? I'm $1500 into this thing and I can make it disappear just as quickly. This isn't fun anymore. I had spent a lot of time already "tidying" around the engine bay: Fixing all the "someone's been here before!" BS. The truck has been exclusively dealer- and shop- serviced and I'm reminded of why I never let other people work on my cars unless absolutely necessary.   Speaking of dealer service. This truck has a 1" stack of records going back to 1995. I put them all in an excel spreadsheet, date/mileage/description.   The CPI spider has been replaced 4 times in 85k miles. The EGR? Another 4. Multiple, multiple O2 sensors. One Cat. 4? Sets of plugs and wires, and I swear half the stack is diagnosis paperwork for "misfire, runs rough, extended crank, dies at stoplights".   GM was producing some proper crap back then. And it was still well within the era of brittle/crappy plastic. (Windows 95 was released the same month this truck was sold new, we HAD the technology!!)   There (was) a plastic shroud around the evaporator core and HVAC fan in the engine bay. I noticed a chunk of it missing so I poked at it some more and it literally shattered. Touched it some more and pieces were crumbling off. Had a good laugh. Clearly whatever plastic garbage they were using had broken down over 30 years and was literally turning to dust. That was a good half hour of using a shop vac to remove the rest of it.   Back to it.   I was going to give up for the evening but then decided I'm already level 10 pissed off at the stripped screw: G* D* it, give me my tools back -- and my JOY. We'll do this the hard way: The whole intake is coming off.   Blazer won Round II. After finally finding and accessing the 12 intake bolts and using a pry bar to unseat it from the heads, it popped loose in an explosion of gunk and grime raining down into open ports. Awesome.   6 times I reminded myself: Be careful of the temperature sender on the front of the intake.   YEAH, I forgot again and snapped it clean off in the removal. Add another $20 to the ever-growing list of new parts this thing is consuming.   The shame is, long before removing the intake, I had changed the oil in prep for Tuesday's momentous fuel line replacement that was going to be the magic fix and I'd have a running Blazer to tool around in this next weekend. The intake removal, including raining gunk, also gushed dirty coolant all over the valley. Of course it did. Welp, there goes another $35.   I now need an intake gasket set, bolt set, coolant temp sensor, another 5 quarts of oil, some RTV. Don't worry, I've already got 3 new jugs of Dexcool and a thermostat waiting. I'll fill it with clean water first to get it running, dump it, and then add the Dex later on in case... well, let's not go there. I'm only tearing this down once, next time the truck is going on Marketplace for FREE.   Oh, and I'm going to need vacuum hose for all the stupid connections placed at the rear of the engine which have since disintegrated. Come on, GM....tell me you don't do that anymore?   Oh, and the ears on the distributor where the cap screws down are both cracked. I mean, why not put a new distributor in it too. You get a distributor, YOU get a distributor, Everyone gets a new distributor!   This truck isn't out of the woods yet...I'm already questioning how much more time I'm willing to sink in.
