#4960 of 5688 New GM Incentives vs. today's??? malco by z71bill May 31, 2005 (2:10 pm)
I understand that the rebate comes from GM - but the dealer must value a trade in based on what it is worth when they resell it (less the cost to sell & profit - of course) so it just seems that the large rebates would put downward pressure on trade in values.   Hard to see many people willing to pay more for a used vehicle than a new one - so if you throw a $5,000 rebate on top of low (or no) interest financing on new vehicles then the value of 1 year old truck would be reduced. Which would ripple down through all the model years. Replies to this message: txyank1 (Jun 01, 2005 7:50 am)

#4962 of 5688 how to replace radio by shryke300 Jun 01, 2005 (4:42 am)
Replying to: hdlove (May 01, 2005 9:10 pm) I just bought a 2005 silverado, and have an aftermarket radio I want to put in. I have replaced the radio in my old 84 s10, but thats a little different. Walmart has an adaptor plate that I can use to get the new one to fit, but what I dont know is if i need a wiring harness adaptor to keep stuff like the factory chimes, and if i need an antenna adaptor. I didn't with the s10, but it is quite a bit older. Also, if I go to replace the speakers, how do I take the door panels off and replace them without damaging anything. the s10 had plastic fasteners that got stripped if you pulled the panels off.

Replying to: z71bill (May 31, 2005 2:10 pm) Correctimundo! But, like I've said before, if you bought with one of those huge discounts you're still in the game. BUT, if you paid top dolloar when you bought it then be prepared to take the loss, or keep it a few more years.

Good to hear from you.   My impala didnt even have a cabin air filter from Sept to April.   I was up in your neck of the woods (Detroit) a few weeks ago.
