I know that tedebear and rmbalisa (sp?) have indicated that they might be able to give out one of these. If that is the case please let me know how I can contact you for one.
 
You can email anyone on these forums at their carspace.com address by using the following format:
 
membernamecarspace.com
 
I've already given out the 6 Friends discounts I had for 2008. The EC program ended on 01/02/2008. I read that rmbalisa still had 5 Friends discounts last week, so you might try emailing him. I wish I had dozens of these things to give out but Chrysler only gives 6 per employee.
 
If he doesn't have any left you might try posting your request on some of the other Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep forums (not just Edmunds - do a Google search). Many Chrysler employees are also Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep owners who surf the forums.

Yes, the EC (Employee Choice) discount program ended on 01/02/2008. However, the Friends discount program is still alive and well. Chrysler employees can give out up to 6 Friends discounts to anyone for 2008. All of mine have already been given out.
 
The discount difference between the two was usually around $300-$400. Both programs represent a significant savings off the MSRP and rebates plus other incentives are subtracted from the discount price for even more savings.

So what do actual employees do??? I work for a supplier to Chrysler and can get the supplier discount, but a friend of mine that works at Jeep usually got me an employee discount, which was better. Thanks

Employees can still purchase up to 6 vehicles per calendar year through the EP (Employee Purchase) program. That is in addition to the 6 Friends discount numbers they can give out to anyone.
 
Here is a list of who is eligible for the EP program:
 
All Chrysler active full-time and part-time Employees/Retirees. Immediate family members including spouse, same-sex domestic partners,* parents, parents-in-law, stepparents, sons/daughters, sons/daughters-in-law, stepchildren, brothers/sisters, brothers/sisters-in-law, half brothers/sisters, grandchildren and grandparents.

Is friends and family that good a deal? by staciy

I was quoted an MSRP of 35905 for a touring 08 25M package, sirius TV, security package, and mygig NAV. The price of the Dealer invoice was 33,387. I had someone offer me a friends discount. The dealer quoted me friends price of 33053. Doesn't seem to be that big a difference off of the MSRP. Some of the other prices seem to be 5-6K below MSRP. Does this price seem correct? Thanks for any help.

Indeed it is. Here is the Friends discount price for the 08 Touring with the options you listed. Since you didn't provide your zip code I used one in the St. Louis area, where one of the minivan assembly plants is located. MSRP stays the same but discount prices and rebates vary by region.
 
MSRP: $35,905
Friends: $30,898
 
The above Friends discount includes a current $1,500 rebate which expires on 02/29/2008. The discount price quote is provided as an estimate only. Ask the dealer to show you the actual invoice which shows the exact PP (Preferred Pricing Friends) discount on it.
 
Feel free to ask if you have any further questions and I'll be glad to help if I can.

Hi - Just came across this site. My wife and I are interested in 2008 Chrysler T&C. I see lots of references to EC pricing, EC discount, Friends pricing. What's that all about? Any info appreciated.

Hi and welcome aboard. The EC (Employee Choice) discount program ended on 01/02/2008. Chrysler says they have no plans in the near future to reinstate it. It usually was around $300-$400 more in savings than the Friends program.
 
However, the Friends discount program is alive and well. The Friends price is 1% below dealer invoice. You can find the invoice price on Edmunds. Any rebates or other price incentives are subtracted from the Friends discount for even more savings.
 
All Chrysler employees are permitted to give out up to 6 Friends discounts per calendar year to anyone. There is no charge to obtain one. All 6 of mine have already been given out but ask around.
