Employee Pricing for December

Does anyone know how employee pricing works when it comes to negotiating with a participating dealer?  Does negotiating just go out the window for the next month, or are they allowed to sell below that price?

 

In November, my GMC dealer (Texas) agreed to sell me a truck at invoice, less rebates when it comes in.  At that time, the GMC cash allowance was $6250, and the dealer was taking off another $4100 to get to invoice price, for a total of $10,350 off of MSRP.  Now for December, the GMC cash allowance is $3750, and the Employee Pricing drops it by $6,100, for a total discount of $9,850.  Can I still expect my dealer to knock $4,100 (or maybe a smaller amount) off of the price, and give me a tremendous deal, or does employee pricing negate the possibility of any dealer discounts?

Employee pricing does not automatically negate any additional discount as a dealership can essentially sell you a truck at any price they want. Is it likely they're going to give you an extra $4100 off an employee pricing + cash allowance deal, no, it's not. Will they probably honor your original deal and sell it to you at invoice, maybe.

 

Let us know how it turns out.

They should be able to give repeat, employee price plus their discount of 4100. Just an FYI invoice doesn't mean what they paid for it. I read an article that dealer will get bonouses based on certain metrics and that can trickle down to customers. Specially in places like Houston. Bought my 13F150 from Houston for 6k cheaper than what my buddy paid for his in ND exact same truck down to the color, aside from the name of the package (mine was tx edition his was chrome edition) exact same thing he didn't get a a badge on the tailgate saying tx edition

 

 

Its like the all star package and the Texas edition. Same darn thing.

Sounds like they are a volume dealer.  I've been watching prices around here, and regardless of the incentives, pricing has stayed the same for volume dealers.

 

Regardless, I'm sure they told you they won't guarantee the price on an ordered vehicle.  This is the gamble you take to order exactly what you want.

      Gas Prices

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.

      Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.

      Correct.  2019-2021 model years are serviced by a different p/n.  19420611.  Recall 2021s use 19420611.   The recall engines 2022-2024 model years are serviced with 12740076.     The difference between 19420611 and 12740076 is GM changed injector size for 2022.  The injectors are smaller on 12740076 with smaller injector bores in the cylinder heads to match the smaller injectors.  So you can't install a 19420611 in a 2022-2024, and you can't install a 12740076 in a 2019-2021.     Both engines are the replacement engine p/ns that are in the L87 recall.  So both of these are the updated engines.     Here's a version of the L87 recall with the p/ns for all the parts needed.    RCRIT-25V274-7075.pdf   Note it shows 19420611 and 12740076 with an asterisk to a footnote "Use the VIN and the GM Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) to determine which part to order if two or more part numbers are listed for the same part, as it may vary by vehicle options."

      Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.
