I would say you are getting hosed and find a new dealer to buy the next 3 from. According to NADA, your Durango is worth (TRADE IN) a minimum of 16250 without any options added in, and over 18000 with options added. The van is high mileage and a bottom line version. You should be able to get a new one for not much more than that. I bought my 08 Grand Caravan SXT new for 25,445 after best pricing and rebates ect., and it stickered for almost 34,000.. The dealer I bought from has 14 T&C and 14 GC vans listed on their web page right now and none of them are over 27,350 best priced. I am way out in the middle of nowhere North Dakota, but I will list their web site so you can have a look if you want.

Thanks. What are people’s thoughts about sending an email to the general manager to let him know my feelings on them just simply offering me their sticker on this used car and low price for the Durango- without any option to negotiate? I emailed the sales guy back yesterday afternoon and said here is what I can do price wise per month and to let me know where he stands. He never replied with even a sorry we still cant help you!
 
And what about contacting another salesperson at the dealership in the internet dept to see if they are willing to deal with me since the first guy wont? Not sure how dealerships work- would another salesperson work with me when I had originally been with another sales man?

I paid $33100 out the door + MD tags and tax. I think I paid too much but my husband seems to think the price was great. Oh, well. It's a done deal now.
 
It is white w/ DVD and MYGIG. That's it.

The MyGIG with DVD is standard with the Limited unless that's the version with GPS, which is an additional $1,300.
 
Anyway, with no options the MSRP for it $36,755. A Friends discount of around $3,530 would have brought the price down a little. Also, there are rebates available in certain regions. For instance, there's a $2,500 rebate in some parts of the midwest.
 
Give me a detailed list of any options that were not part of the original Limited X package MSRP and I'll tell you how well you did.

No, I don't think the dealer is messing with you. I just traded in my 07 Ram 1500 QC SLT with the 20" wheels w/Hemi for a 08 T&C. The Ram had a clear title, low miles (5600) and bought at same dealer for $24,236.00 out the door w/rust proofing.
 
Well, last month if I would have done the deal, I would have gotten $22000 on my trade. Not this month though, with fuel spiking and his lot loading up with Hemi powered vehicles, he gave me $20,000. I took the hit, and did the deal. Small dealer in town, and I watch his lot. The trucks have been piling up. And I do know that most of this inventory will go to auction, where the prices for the big iron have been dropping as fuel spikes.
 
Take the above for what it is worth, but the longer you wait the less you will get. Gasoline is over $4 a gallon here in Michigan and these bigger vehicles are not moving up here.
 
I just bought my wife a 2008 Honda Civic EX-L to commute to work in, 35+ mpg! Loaded with Leather and Navigation. I wish Chrysler had a car like this.
 
I know the owner of the Honda dealership, family friend. His lot is also loading up with the heavy stuff. Honda Fits, Civics and Accords are flying off of the lot. He had to go to Ohio to get my wifes car. He had 3 Civic coupes on the lot when we got there, there was one left at the end of the day. And this is Detroit!

The sticker was over $39K. My price included a $2500 rebate. The MYGIG is the enhanced version with navigation and the other option was the Entertainment group #3.

Okay, I configured what I think is on yours and came up with an MSRP of $40,075 (might be a price change after yours was built). Anyway, if you got it for $33,100 you did pretty good.
 
MSRP: $40,075
Friends discount: $3,957
Rebate: $2,500
 
Net price: $33,618
 
BTW, the employee cost on that would have been $32,954 after rebate, so you're within $150 of the employee discount price.
 
I'm sure you'll really like the MyGIG. I have it on my Sebring. Although it wasn't something I would have ordered it came with it and now that I've been playing with it for a few months I think it is way cool.
 
Send me a PM using your Carspace email tools and I'll look up a link when I get home later where you can d/l the latest MyGIG application software and Gracenote database. If you (or a friend) can burn a CD it's very easy to do.

Yes, when I priced it on Edmunds it was $40,075, but the sticker said $39,870. Maybe because of an unpopular color?
 
Anyway, I'm gld you think it was a decent deal. I will PM you.
