If you refi they get the charge back within 3 months, after that the dealer won't get the chargeback. Take the mac cash then refi is mazda doesn't give you a good rate. I work for a bank, used or new we offer the same rate (now 6.74--mazda gave me 7.75 they wanted 8.25 a first, thats with A+credit), doesn't matter. What could come into play is if the NADA book comes out with a value on the 05's. Our bank only lends up to retail of the nada book. Right now, for the tribute those figures are not out. The dealers should be honest and tell the customer than can refi but the dealer would get hit with a chargeback, instead of saying it's a condition to wait 3 months. Due to this, I will refi now and the dealer will be out. If they were truthful upfront, I would have waited. Oh well.

I was shopping around and got this price:
05 excape XLT 4WD V6 +POWER MOONROOF ,TRAILER TOWING,RETRACTABLE CARGO COVER ,
SAFETY CANOPY SIDE AIR CURTAIN
MSRP: 26525
x-plan price: 24848
then sbutract 3000 rebates (2000+ 1000 loyalty)
500 College rebate cannot be combined
No dealer fee, doc fee etc.
So final would be 21848+TX+TTL
Almost 5000 off MSRP
  
How's that sound?
  
Thanks a lot!

I bought a 2005 Mazda Tribute I 4x4, auto, cargo net, winter mats, cruise-- Sticker 22770. (Tribute standard 16' alloys, privacy glass, roof rake, mats, 50k warr--compared to xls escape) I got 6k off sticker. 4500 rebate, 1550 dealer discount. No trade. Not bad for 16.7k. They also gave me 100k powertrain warr. for free and 2 full sets of tires (250 per tire) every 25k+ miles. Stipulation is you must do all service with them which I would because they are the closest dealer around. I think getting 5k to 5500 off a ford escape is a good deal for what is out there. I see most are discounting ford for that. I think the tribute gives you more for less money. Longer warranty, extra options, (bigger rebates) and resale seems about 10% higher in NADA Retail and what dealers are re-selling for.

$7,500 off MSRP on Tribute by henry_n

In this morning's Houston Chronicle classified ads, I see an ad for a Tribute at $7,500 off MSRP. The ad does not list a specific inventory number, or a true price, but it does state "several to choose". Could this be legitimate? I ask, because the dealer is about an 1.25 hours away from my home, and I would be quite burned if I drove all the way over and found the ad to be non-legitimate.
 
Checking their online inventory, with MSRP prices posted, this looks like a H*LL of a good deal.

$7,500 off MSRP on Tribute -- YES! by henry_n

The deal was legitimate, I did buy the vehicle. 2005 Mazda Tribute S, 2wd, auto, V6, MSRP $23,480 with $7,500 discount came to $15,980. One h*ll of a deal, in my estimation. The Mazda financing is a total rip, 8.9% for someone with a credit score over 800. I discussed this with the finance man, and he asked me politely not to refinance for 90 days, and I agreed to wait for 91 days. For those interested, this was at Russell & Smith Mazda in Houston, Texas. It was a one day only sale, but it apparently applied to all of the Tributes in stock. For those in the Houston area, keep reading the Chronicle classifieds and see if they do it again.

Got a 05 excape XLT 4WD V6 +POWER MOONROOF ,TRAILER TOWING,RETRACTABLE CARGO COVER ,
SAFETY CANOPY SIDE AIR CURTAIN
MSRP: 26525
INVOICE: 24853
final price : $21543+TTL & TAX , $3000 rebates included (2000+ 1000 loyalty).
Actually, I also have $ 500 graduate program and $ 500 cash back coupon from ford brochures. But dealer said you can only choose one from loyalty, grad program and $ 500 brochure coupon to combine with $2000 customer rebate. Is that true?
Thanks.

Bought Tribute i 4WD auto (copper color) with premium package at this price in WA (didn't take $1500 for lease + grad). MPV base model (pearl white) is $1700 cheaper at $8200 off MSRP.
 
Becareful the finance person charge you 9.9%, 60 month by default and you have to argue to get a better one.
