Does anyone know about the rebates for April? In February it was $1000 from the manufactor plus another $1000 if financed through Chrysler. This month it is $2500 plus $1000. I would like to know if at all possible what April rebates will be. I have a very good deal right now, but they have to order the one I want and the rebates may not apply because the Jeep may not come for 4-6 weeks. Tnanks Rusty |

I talked to two different dealers about the April rebates, no one knows until April 1st. If I order the GC as I want it will be up to 8 weeks, (4-6 usual) before it comes in and if the rebates are less at that time, well you lose. If the rebates are more then you come out ahead. I really can not take that chance. He suggested that I let him locate the truck and do a dealer trade. He said in the long run you will not have as much negotiation room if you order it. If you buy something that has been on the lot for a month or two, the dealer is losing money on interest and manufactor incentives to move the trucks. I am not interested in the DVD package and the additional 4X4 equipment package or chrome rims. It seems that all the black HEMI's in my area come with those additional options. I have a price for the green GC/Hemi final price of $34,600 then less $3,500 for a final price of $31,100. But I don't like the green, so I may be willing to pay slightly more for Black with more options. Any options that are on the Jeep that I do not want I will offer 40% of the dealer cost for that option. This tactic worked on my last 1999 GC limited so I'll try it again. Today I received a promotional mailer from Jeep for an additional $1000 bonus cash,(I have purchased 2 new Jeeps/93 and a 99) off any deal I make from 03/14/05-05/02/05 and all current rebates are valid so that is $4500 off. I gotta by a new Jeep. So if you are a previous Jeep owner, look in the mail. Rusty |

Hi Hemiboy, I was in Dallas last weekend and I believe it was Car and Driver's newest issue had a picture of the SRT-8 GC due in late fall of 2005. I spoke to a Jeep dealer in Dallas and he said there will be a "Gas-Gussler" surcharge of approximately $2-3K. Take a look at the additional price for the 6.1 Hemi available in the Chrysler 300 and that should be some indication of price. What is MDS? And what did you pay for your GC? Thanks Rusty

Replying to: jeep3 (Mar 23, 2005 7:28 pm) I got it back in early Feb when they were just arriving. They wanted 39,999 with everything except navi & rear DVD - which is EXCACTLY what I wanted. I talked them down to 37,500 and then the 2500$ rebate so I made out ok. Plus I have had a DVD / Garmin Nav installed in the passenger fold-down. They took the mirror out and put a small flat screen in there - it even has touch + voice. I have the Hemi and QuadraDrive II so unlike the srt-8 I can still seriously go off road. I kinda find the srt-8 a bit much - but I am SURE the 6.1 without MDS will have the economy of a Hummer - Mark my words. Theres a reason why we have not seen any info on that ..... goto wk.jeeps.com.... |

We have had the 05 LTD Hemi for 1000 miles/3 weeks. Zero problems, very quite and no issues except for a bad windshield wiper blade. Stopped at a Jeep dealer and they promptly replaced the wiper blade. A superb ride! |

Replying to: jeep3 (Mar 23, 2005 5:56 pm) Ordering a vehicle should not affect the price significantly. The dealer having to go get it from someone else will more than offset any "savings" of buying one off the lot. The sales guys are telling you that to get you to buy one now and not change your mind. If you're looking for something specific, I'd order it. By the way, green sucks

I got a dealer trade for this truck, there were no black hemis anywhere in my city, in 6 dealerships. I just completed the deal, this is what I got and what I paid. The only options I did not get were DVD, 4X4 extra package and the chrome rims. MSRP of $41,970; sale price of $37,497 (a discount of $4,483) plus $4,500 in rebates/CFS and Bonus dollars for a final price of $32,997. A trade in of $9,500 for my 99 GC LTD. I wanted a discount of $5,000 off MSRP, but settled for $4,483 and decided to make it up the additional $500 on my trade-in. They offered $8,100 and I got up and said "Thank you for your time, but ____ Jeep dealership offered the same deal for the new car and $9,000 for my trade in." (Actually two other dealers offered $7,500 and $7,900.) He stammered and said let me get my used car manager to rework the numbers... I said don't bother you are wasting my time, I have to go.. Basically he said what do you want for your trade in and my reply was $10,500. He said there was no way they could do that. We finally agreed upon $9,500 which was $1000 more than what I was willing to take. Initially my number was $8,500, but I had to make up the difference of the additional $500 off MSRP that I was pushing for, but didn't get. The only thing that has not been finalized is the finance/APR. I must have misread, but I thought if you take the $ 2,500 rebate and the $1000 for CFS you could still do the 0% for 36 months. The dealer said it was either/or, but not both. I have perfect credit and debt to income ratio is ideal, but the lowest rate quoted was 6.99% which I thought the highest I would pay was 4.99% for 48 months. Anyway I have the deal done except for the APR, I have a sale order locking the deal for 72 hours to work out the APR. Can anyone tell me what rate you paid? Thanks in advance |

Replying to: paule (Mar 25, 2005 8:35 pm) Could you post/email your APR if you went through CFS? I am having a little difficulty with the rates I was quoted..6.99% for 48 or 60 months. Thanks Rusty

Replying to: jeep3 (Mar 27, 2005 10:33 am) I think you have the wrong guy. I haven't bought a vehicle (at least a Jeep) recently so I do not have any rates for you. It would not surprise me however that they are quoting you in the 6-7% range since they gave you the $1000. They have to make it up somewhere. If you have the ability to pay cash for the vehicle, you are in the catbird seat. Then you can take the $1000 and pay off the loan in a month or two assuming they don't have a penalty written into the deal. I might add it seems you are getting a smoking deal with the price your quoting. They must be pretty desperate to give that much off of MSRP and then give the rebates as well. |
