Replying to: pjt (Mar 09, 2005 7:55 am) Here's my deal (almost the same deal as yours -- no shiny wheels) JGC Ltd + freight 25k package Hemi 4x4 group Sirius radio Side curtain air bags Optional Tire Pressure Monitor Navigation MSRP $41,070 Sales Price $37,561 Fees $75 Rebates $3,500 (am financing for 3 months) Out the Door -- $34,136 (plus ttt)-- 6% in FL Not sure how good, but it's done! and the dealership was GREAT to deal with -- even remotely. The dealers here in FL wouldn't even try to come close. I had to order. But it was very, very simple and very pleasurable to come to this deal with Woody's. The dealer is: WOODY'S DODGE-JEEP 310 S Washington Chillicothe, MO 64601 |

Replying to: pjt (Mar 09, 2005 7:55 am) On the deal, I got so frustrated with Lithia that I started calling and came upon this very old dealer in Woodland CA. So old they use to sell electric cars..... Spoke with the fleet manager, told them I was willing to pay cost less $200 plus the rebates. Took a print out from the WEB onthe extended warranty costs and thus was able to get a discount on that also. They agreed, found the car and we complete the whole thing very quickly. Just bought the Sprint PCS LG PM-325 Bluetooth phone, plan to test out this weekend. Hope this helps. |

Replying to: gijohn (Mar 10, 2005 7:35 pm) In my humble opinion, you should not walk but run from this dealer. One of the things I like about Edmunds' forums is most of the posted experiences posted. Most of the deals I've read here (including mine) are running 12% to 15% off MSRP. Of course that includes rebates but rebates affect how much comes out of my pocket. Again, use Edmunds.com to find out the invoice price and start from there. Again and in my opinion, you take this deal you are leaving thousands of dollars on the table. |

| Silver Laredo 4x4 with the F package group, 6 disc/MP3 stereo, adjustable pedals, cargo convenience group. MSRP $30,900. Invoice $28,898. I got it for $28,200, so $700 below invoice. Subtract off the $3,500 rebates and I got the processing fees waived ($200) for another $3,700 off = $24,500. (Plus they gave me more on my trade in than I expected). I think I did good. What do you think? | |

Today, I'm the proud owner of a 2005 JGC Fully Loaded. I never thought I would own a Jeep, because I never really cared for the Grand Cherokee's looks & styling, nor do i do any off-roading. Seriously, I never ever visited a jeep dealership to even try out their vehicles ( even though I liked the the thought of the freedom the wrangler could provide when i lived in the mountains during my high-school & college years ) However, afer looking at practically every truck, suv & car, i decided to go with the JGC because it met all my needs in the end... Height : i'm tall & so are friends. driver and passenger seats have lots of room. 2nd role has no room for tall people if front seats are all the way back Unfortunately, everything else was too good to pass up so those friends who aren't fortunate enough to sit in front will have to either endure sitting in back or ride in their own vehicles... ( sad, but what's a guy to do... ) 5.7 HEMI : wanted something fast Jeep : wanted something 4 occasional off-road if i'm stuck in traffic, i can make my own detour, cross divide, rail-road tracks, etc Size : something that fit in my garage didn't want 40-50K vehicle sitting in sun, rain, etc FUN : Extremely fun to drive, agile, nimble, quick, secure, & did i say fun !!!! Share : my wife can drive this too, suburbans, tahoe's, yukons, durango's, tundras, explorers, etc.. she didn't like, too big Styling : the car actually looks very good Cost : sticker much less than other items i looked at, final deal even sweeter BODY & Description EQUIP -------------------------------------------- WKJP74.Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 4x4 PSB.......Bright Silver Metallic C/C Paint PLD5......Leather-Trimmed Bucket Seats AEK.......Electronic Information System Group AJY........4x4 Popular Group CGS.......Supplemental Side Air Bagss DGQ.......5-Speed Automatic Transmission EZB.......5.7L HEMI(R) MDS V8 Engine ..........Electronic Limited Slip Differential rear Axle .............Electronic Limited Slip front Axle ..............5.7L Badge ................Quadra-Drive(R) II 4WD System REC..........Navigation System w/6-CD/MP3 Player RSA SIRIUS Satellite Radio WGX 17x7.5" Aluminum Chrome Clad Wheels XAA ParkSense(TM) Rear Back-up Sysem XGM Tire Pressure Monitoring Display YDH Daimler Chrysler Owner Loyalty Mail YG1 7.5 Additional Gallons of Gas Y99 CHRYMDA 2TK K Package 25K....Customer Preferred Package 25K 4HW....Pre-Spec Vehicle Order Tracking |

And to think I wasn't even considering buying a jeep. --------------------------------------------
