In case anyone is interested, Chrysler/Jeep offers a great recent College Grad incentive program which is far superior to any other company out there. I am graduating this May and have been shopping around for a new SUV. For the price, incentives, and 5-year ownership costs on the JGC, buying one is a no brainer. Here is how the program breaks down: -1% below invoive off the bat -must pay a $75 program fee to join -must be graduating from college I believe 6 months prior to purchase date or have graduated up to 2 years before purchase date -proof of employment or future employment This is not a plug for Chrysler/Jeep either, believe me. I am simply informing recent College grads of the great deals out there willing to be had. I have test driven the JGC and plan to buy by the end of the month. This SUV rides silky smooth and looks great. I was turned off of the 4-Runner and Pathfinder due to higher price and 3rd row seating. Hope this helps anyone in the market for an SUV. I hope to be posting my buying experience very shortly. - Forty |

After months of deliberation I have decided to go with the JGC limited G package. I was offered the following deal today: MSRP $32,830 Final Price: (including TTL) of $19,000 This includes the $3,500 in rebates and discounts and $10,000 for my trade (2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer with 89,000 miles on it). Now I just have to decide on what color. I gave the dealer three colors (Silver, White and Light Khaki) and they have come back with all three. At first I really liked the Khaki but the more I look at it the less I like it. I will probably go with the silver. I will post my final deal when it is completed. I think this is a pretty good deal.

In addition to the $2500 cash back/financing deal, there is a $1000 rebate for going through Chrysler Finance (which it sounds like you are using), and another $1000 "Exclusive Cash Bonus" that Jeep direct mailed/emailed to people on its mailing list (frankly I have no idea how or why I am on their mailer, but I am). See if you can get that rebate as well - might have to come from Jeep HQ, though, so you should contact them rather than the dealer. I too am shopping around, and I followed the Edmunds "buying tips" and got a number of prices through email for the "base" 2005 Grand Cherokee (MSRP $28500). Here is the breakdown, including the $3500 in rebates mentioned above (and not including the additional $1000 coupon I received via email or my trade): MSRP: $28,500 Edmunds Invoice: $26,630 Edmunds TMV: $27,386 (w/o rebates) Prices I was quoted: $22,451 (dealership on ebay, located in Indiana) $22,882 (local Long Island, NY dealer) $22,959 (local) $23,800 (local) All of these prices were done over email with no haggling or negotiating, so it's possible I can work a little more to get a better price. That said, however, I suspect that some of the dealers are building the military/recent college grad rebate into the price (both $500, though I don't qualify for either), so I'm pretty sure I have that little surpise waiting for me when I get to the dealership. Let me know if anyone has had a similar experience/price.

Replying to: shorty101 (Apr 19, 2005 2:45 pm) That's awful, but you should be pretty happy with the fact that you were strong enough to walk out when they pulled that nonsense. I put things on hold until tomorrow, at which time I plan to take another go at negotiations before I actually visit a dealership. I'll let you know. |

I bought my Jeep and I love it. I bought a White JGC Limited G Package with a sunroof and a Khaki interior. Below is a breakdown of the cost. MSRP: 32,900 Rebates $3,500 Reduction in sticker price $2,400 Trade in $8000 Total after TTL: 20,583 They also will install U-Connect for free because when the Jeep came in the interior was the wrong color Khaki instead of Greystone/Dk. Kahaki. They asked me what they could do to make it OK with me and I said install the U-connect for free. They went for it and I took the deal. This was a $400 value. I could not get the exclusive cash bonus because this is only mailed randomly to individuls who visit the Jeep dealership. I think that I got a good deal and I am happy.

| I am currently looking for a new car for my wife, and she is interested in the 05 Grand Cherokee Laredo. I was not too taken by its interiors. Any regrets out there? Thanks, Richard | |
Does anyone know if the $2500 Cash back and $1000 CFC Financing rebates are taken out before or after taxes are calculated?
