For some reason the base Town and Country is priced lower than the Carvan with 6 cylinders.
 
I've seen T&C's advertised for $16,500

ABSOLUTELY. The 6 cyl Caravan is an SXT and has MANY more options than the SWB T&C.
       A Caravan SXT is a nice, well equipped minivan while the SWB T&C is just one step above the Caravan SE 4 cyl.
      These options are: Dual Zone air conditioning, Tachometer, Cast Wheels, Quad seating, 50/50 split fold and tumble 3rd row just for starters.
       You cannot even get a tachometer on a SWB T&C. Stupid of DC.

Dodge Caravan SXT price negotiating by antelope1

I posted this on the T&C forum since that is where I started out (Looking for a T&C) so sorry for double-posting if you read both:
 
Went to look at the Dogdge Caravan SXT since it looks like a very similar car to the T&C. Found one with package I wanted, and after EP and rebate came to $21,073 (Included Bronze paint, 2nd row Bucket seats, entertainment package, etc.) This time, I tried to make it clear I didn't want to spend more than $18,000 before he even showed me a car. I said how I liked the car, but it was too much. I kept throwing out numbers and finally made it up to $20,000....but he kept saying that the EP minus rebate is as low as they can go. So I told him I would have to sleep on it.
 
I just want to hear if someone has negotiated a price (without trade-in) that is lower than EP minus trade in this month so I know if I can get them lower. $20,000 might be a stretch, but $20,500 should be OK on a price of $21,073, right?
 
BTW, this dealer is offering a Christmas in July deal - pick an envelop of the tree and get an additional $500 - $5000 off. I figure at a minimum, the $500 would cover taxes, tags, fees, and dealer-add ons.

The EP prices are not at good as the prices that I found at the end of June.
 
I found a dealer that would sell me a GC sxt for inovoice minus hold back (which is actually the EP price) then $3,500 in rebates
 
MSRP $28625
Invoice $26735
 
rebates $3500
 
Invoice minus hold backs of about $1250 - rebates $3500=
 
final price $21,995
 
Now the rebates are only $2,000 on the same van (thus I would have saved $1,500 by purchasing in June over July.
 
Same dealer said wait until the rebates change again. He could not match the price quoted in June, cause the mopar rebates to the consumer were not as good.
 
I have found that the EP is the bottom line at dealers.

EP Plus is not the dealers bottom line! by vtechokie

Just bought a 2005 GC SXT. MSRP was $33,120 with the Leather Interior Group, Premium Group, In-Dash 6-Disc CD w/DVD , and Rear Seat Video System. EP Plus was $29,283 - $2000 Rebate = $27,283. Final price to me was $26,283. That's $1000 below EP Plus.
 
Had a dealership offer $1400 below EP Plus on a GC SXT with the same specs but they only had one and it was my wife's least favorite color.
 
Also paid $2000 for the DC Maximum Care Service Contract 6 years/ 100K miles with $0 deductible. I think the list price is $2750. Dealer told me the EP for the Service Contract was $2295. Search for "Daimler Chrysler Service Contract" online and there are a couple of Chrysler Dealerships in the midwest selling their contracts over the Internet for the price I paid. Showed the dealership a print out of the listed prices and they matched.

EP PRICE IS THE BOTTOM LINE.
NO DEALERSHIP WOULD SELL STOW AND GO CCARAVANS FOR LESS THAN THAT SINCE DC DID NOT BULD ENOUGH FOR DEALERS
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS EP FOR SERVICE CONTRATCS

Congratulations on your good purchase. Frankly, I believe your numbers more than an unknown salesman at an unknown location.

Maybe this is a Detroit thing, but I was at dealership getting oil change last week and saw EP Plus on all the vehicles on showroom floor. What's this???

This appears to be a dealership that wants to clear out all new inventory.
      Sadly, many DaimlerChrysler dealers have sold out of new 2005 DC minivans.
