I got 8% below msrp deisel 3500 denali look for something at or below msrp.

I find that hard to believe as that is over a $7,100 savings on an $89 k truck. I KNOW they don't have that much room on their invoices. I know my local sales manager well, and he showed me that they only have about $2,800 margin over invoice on MSRP, they rely on volume sales & making another $5-$6k on your trade. That's why they don't really like cash deals also.

At my dealer, they never had a markup on MSRP...not even during Covid. They still don't but they also don't offer any discount...yet! They are a very high volume dealer and they are still selling a lot of trucks! I was looking at two with a diesel, although I really wanted gas. They came in and got sold within days!

No sir Bruce

me and Robbie both had to travel across several states to get that deal.

Total savings for me

Dealers around here adding 5k to msrp 92k would have been 97k.

I paid 83k, 14k savings for me well worth it for me.

I see you ordered yours. I did the same. Great that they gave you that deal even though you ordered it and not because they just had a lot of trucks in stock.

Yes sir I did, they couldn't keep them in stock and were sold before they hit the lot, so we placed an order and 111 days later it was there and man this truck is nice

Ahhh.....so you both ordered! 

 

If I didn't have to drive across the country, I would have done that...although, since I am retired, would be easy to do!

Yes sir we did, then I flew in to Tampa the dealer picked me up at airport, gave me a full tank of fuel a  smack on the butt lol and sent me on my way 10/15 min total at dealer. Everything else I did online.

Good to hear you fellas are doing okay with your new trucks and sharing information !

When browsing online in British Columbia at dealerships its quite a bit of comparing different trucks as its not apples to apples most time .  

I have a few more questions for you fellas and hoping I ger a lot of replies .

 

#1  On the 2500 HD I see you can get an off road package . I off road some tricky stuff while hunting but its not like Im bouncing off bumps and hills so would it really be needed . I mean I could just buy factory skid plates and put them on my self for  protection ,no ? 

I saw a 3500 HD that had the Z package and was priced close to a 2500 without that option .

 

#2 I also saw a 2500 HD with 2 alternators and dual batteries . Wont be getting a camper but travel trailer of some kind we will . So what do you think of that option ?

 

#3 There's also one on a lot that has the snow plow package What's that all about ?

 

#4    if the 2500 HD truck bed is already drilled for gooseneck and fifth wheel is it set to go for either of those application except  for buying a fifth wheel for the box ?Thank You !

#1 Robbie should know more (he is the hunter) I am the camper guy 

#2 if it's there it's there eitherway is fine, your camper will have it's own battery so not need for travel trailer. 

#3 from what I understand snow package will have heavy-duty springs up front similar to a 3500 spring and may or may not have the extra alternator.

#4 exactly as stated and way cheaper than after market, takes up no bed space and is a good resale point for some of us.
