My new truck came in today. Dealer is giving me the option to pay on Monday or wait and see what incentives do on Tuesday. What’s everyone think?

I have so special insight.  But, they seem to be selling more than they are able to make right now so not sure why I would expect incentives to be more attractive.

I have a 2500HD on order with employee pricing, not the everyone pricing.  I will get any additional incentives at delivery, probably end of Feb to mid March.  I am not expecting much, if anything.

 I found on my company site a link to configurator with employee pricing. It is giving me pricing below. My question is if I can get additional dealer's discount to what I get as employee pricing?

If you are buying at Supplier pricing that is a fixed $ amount on the invoice that  the dealer is obligated (by GM) to sell it to you at.  Trade-in, GM card earnings etc can be taken off that price but the dealer is not going to sell for less than supplier.

Agreed. Rebates will be deducted as well (just realized they are already shown deducted), but given the demand I don’t see dealers throwing in any further discounts. I’m in a similar situation and ordering is becoming more attractive for this reason. I can get the package I want, at the price point I want and I’m not giving up any leverage by not buying off the lot. In this market I don’t see anyone having any leverage anyway. Trade value is about the place where there may be some wiggle room.

Good luck with ordering.  They (GM) have more orders than they can/want to build.  Friend is Chevy/GMC salesman, told me they can't get trucks rights now, lots of constrains and he showed me a list of orders that have in, was nearly 10 and GM has yet to pick them up.  Dealers just can't order what they want, they have to have earned an allocation for the model.   No allocation, never will be built.  Production is filled up but is reduced significantly by  current  restrictions that are impacting suppliers in a big way. 

PS - My dealer sold me the last Denali they had back on Dec 7.  To date they have not received another..

I sort of agree with that, I think it depends a lot on package, etc. But with that said, if I can’t get the truck ordered, the dealers aren’t get trucks ordered to inventory either and it’s sort of a moot point. There’s literally zero inventory around here for middle packages (LT, SLE, LTZ, SLT) and nearly nothing in gas engines at any trim level. I was told that total allocation across the country this week was something like 155 HD trucks with gas engines and that they could order what I want but it would have to be diesel. My point is whether I have to wait for the dealers to get trucks that I would want off the lot, or for a custom ordered truck, the wait will likely be the same.

The price you see is the price you pay based on experience purchasing with employee pricing and supplier pricing. Only additional you get is what the current rebates are.

 

you also want to check with the dealer you are going to use to see if they will currently except employee or supplier pricing. Dealers around here is not excepting either due to no supply and selling at sticker minus rebates.

Can I stuck any other discounts or coupons together to supplier price? True Car or additional cash offers? Are there any email cash discounts from GM like other brands do?

Am I eligible for 0% financing with supplier discount?

Incentives can vary greatly by region and financing could depend on your credit rating. Not all buyers will qualify so you need to check with the dealer.

Let us know what they say, not sure I'll get mine this month but I was hoping for Supplier plus 0% as well. For my area incentives went down but the supplier price only went up a couple hundred bucks.

I sent an email to a few dealers, no response so far.

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      www.enginelabs.com/news/what-i-learned-today-bearing-clearances-vs-oil-viscosities/     www.enginelabs.com/news/oil-viscosity-can-the-numbers-be-misleading/ The Big Lie… Coming full circle to the reason Lake discusses the Porsche engines in particular. Based on the 2000 samples in the SPEEDiagnostix database, increasing the oil viscosity in these engines, even those run on the track, showed no significant difference in results.   The smoking gun was in the oil chemistry. That is where the data shows higher instances of more wear. Molybdenum was the key; the higher the amount, the less the wear. Speed postulates that higher viscosity oils have more thickeners to artificially inflate their viscosity numbers. These thickeners lose viscosity under shear, and the result is that not all oils of the same viscosity have the same shear stability.   Having enough viscosity is the most important characteristic, but according to Speed, once that required viscosity level is reached, additive chemistry matters more than additional viscosity. Speed also states, oil pressure problems on the racetrack aren’t a viscosity problem; it’s an oiling system problem. Running a thicker oil is just a band-aid for an underlying oiling system problem.

      Can it still be Assembled II?   Viscosity on the decline by various means. Heat on the rise making that worse. Engine RPM in the tank. Smaller motors with more boost trying to emulate an electric motor. Full torque, zero rpm. Then we will triple the OCI. Argh.    But wait....there is more. LSPI has pushed a shift from Ca to Mg and as that cost more PLUS the run to lower sulfur compounds the TBN is moving in the wrong direction for the increased OCI's demanded.    That not being enough to placate a demand for a parameter they can't measure the other sulfur bearing compounds are also under attack. That would be zinc and phosphorus sulfonate compounds. To some degree those are being replaced with boron esters and others, i.e. titanium ect. All of which have shorter service lives. And there there is the "Secrete Sauce" marketing for AW adds that 'Can't be detected by UOA's" but trust me because I (the blenders) never ever lie.    Spoiler alert; ALL additives are sacrificial! Smaller amounts of the old blended with less robust versions of the new do not equal longer service lives. So what are the blenders recommending? Wait for it.......   MOVING THE GOAL POSTS! OMG      Let's declare the long standing TAN/TBN crossover irrelevant and tell people that soot is a great 'graphite' based lubricant which can aid tribo films. Wait, what? Let's declare that the standards used for oxidation and nitration were to conservative and can be expanded. Let's tell them that because GDI fuel dilution, although being a VISCOSITY KILLER and an acid generator is actually okay because we have better base oils that limit viscosity failure limits. (Said knowing this is measured in fractions of a centipoise and in bases not commonly used in shelf oils)   Lying from the heart is not just the new normal but we have a public, a very young public, that is so ignorant of the facts and so sure of their "RESEARCH" into AI driven models base in regurgitated  instead of scientific research based unvarnished, peer reviewed FACTS that the incoming guard is loosing their grip on reality and the OEM's are tickled pink while the blends bend the knee.    You have an ever limited set of tools to work with. And sooner or later those will be taken from you as the API and the EPA strangle the last remaining fluids from the system. What you have left is your wits. If you care to use them.    At some point in the very near future it will not longer be possible to do "What is best for the machine", and be replaced with "The best you have access too". You WILL be rewarded with half the life and twice the cost. That isn't that hard to predict.

      Software Update

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I trust you saw the other comment where he knew what he was talking about !. Yes, these darned newer vehicles with all their so smart they are stupid technology, goes and drains the battery down. As you might see my other comment, I installed a Noco 5 battery tender under the hood and at this point still have the cord routed so I have to lift the hood and then plug it in but am typically parked in a garage or a shed so its not risking the engine hood in the wind. That way I am assured or hopefully so of not finding I have a battery drawn down and can't even start the truck and that also damages the battery to draw it down too far.

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I guess no surprise my guesses were wrong !, at least now I know if I ever happen to see it grayed out in my own truck as to what is going on.    I never happened to catch my truck with it grayed out, it seemed every time I would test to see if there was an update it never found anything and yet more than once I would check to see if there was an update and there was nothing, then a day later or even that same morning I would drive to town and after more than one engine shut down in town as I did my errands it would pop up that there is an update now ready to install and the only place I have a connection to the internet is at home by wifi so its not as if it grabbed the download while driving. I don't trust these new vehicles due to all the crap they can decide to do while sitting for some days not running and run the battery down so most of the time if I know the truck will sit for a few days I plug in the battery tender I have mounted under the hood and so the only time the truck must have downloaded software was when it was sitting in the garage where the signal is awful but I have that tender plugged in and somehow it managed to download it. I honestly detest all this crap, way to easy to leave a person stranded.    Since I don't trust any of it I don't do the install of the already downloaded software until I get home and sometimes have even sat in the truck to watch what its doing as its going through the process to its conclusion as its not like it is set up that it will tell you the next time you fire up the engine that the update that was initialed actually installed or installed properly. Yes I can go into the updates and see the list. After I go through the install where I feel its safe to do so in case it breaks down as a result, I will plug in the battery tender after the fact to recharge as I don't know how much power its taking just to do the install and that can take a while for it to install.

      Thanks for the reply. All settings were correct and the engine was off, as it was supposed to be. It turned out to be something simple. I took a drive for about an hour. I must have had a low battery without knowing it. The voltage gauge on the display looked ok. At the end of my drive, I shut off the engine and the update prompt came up and it updated normally. It’s ironic because one of the features of the update is a reduction of battery drain.
