I was also looking between the '04 and '05. I have gotten quotes on the '04 Tahoe and Yukon from two dealers each. The best price I got was approx invoice +$500 with one dealer being invoice +$1500. Since I went after the '04 (essentially a one year old model car), I expected to be at invoice or lower (before GM rebates). I expected the above prices to be more applicable to buying an '05. What's a reasonable expectation for the remaining '04's? I'm in Chicagoland if anyone has a recommendation.

Any dealer thinking you'll pay $1500 over invoice for an '04 is either smoking dope or he thinks you're a dope.
 
If you're feeling nice, tell him you'll pay invoice less all incentives. Then ask him to put some fresh tires on the truck because they probably have flat spots from sitting on the lot so long.

Next Pull Ahead? by dammitjim1
Aug 30, 2004 (7:20 am)

I'm interested in the Z71 Tahoe, and am currently in a Trailblazer lease until 7/05. The current Pull Ahead is good until end of 5/05, so I don't qualify. A dealer I am negotiating price on (LI, NY) has incorporated the remaining lease payments into the price of the Z71, which puts me at a higher monthly cost than I'm willing to spend.
The dealer has advised that after 9/7, that another Pull-Ahead may be announced that i'd qualify for, but that the discounts on the '04 models will be significantly reduced. I think he's just trying to get me to commit now as opposed to later. With as much '04 inventory on hand as has been reported, I can't see GM reducing incentives on the '04 models.
 
Opinions? And does anybody know what period the next Pull Ahead will cover?
 
Thanks.

Great Deals on 04's Still Out There by tauberj

Hi, I was vacationing down by Atlantic City last week and heard an add for Kerbeck Chevrolet. They claim they will beat any offer in the country or give you $5,000. I think anyone buying an 04 leftover, should get at least invoice price or better at this late date. Remember, the invoice will have a 1.5% advertising built in (1.5 X (MSRP-Destination charge)). Wallet is correct that dealers will not order lots of 05's if they have lots of 04's in inventory. I am not sure how the holdback actually works, but my truck was built in February. I am not sure when Quirk received it, but expect it was sitting for some time. He had 149 04 Tahoes in his inventory when I chose my truck.

Picked up an '04 by c5_4fun

I looked at the GMC Yukon and Chevy Tahoe between 8 dealers. Seems to be limited supply of '04 LT's and SLT's, but I found many Denali's available (just didn't want to spend the additional $7K) and a lot of red Z71's.
Anyway, after many internet price quotes and searching color/option availability I bought the Tahoe LT Saturday for $100 under invoice before GM's rebate.
While there's good deals on the new ones, the trade-in value for my '02 was tough to stomach.

Purchase low when new = get nothing for it later if you trade or go to sell it. Remember, this is not a Honda or Lexus. I keep all my cars well over 10 years and many many miles, I don't worry about trade in value.

I contacted Quirk to get pricing on a Z-71 Tahoe.
Although they appeared to have a lower selling price on the truck than I could obtain from a local dealer, the monthly payment on the Smartbuy was considerably higher for some reason. I made sure that the local dealer was including taxes and all required fees for the purposes of comparison. For me at least, there is no incentive to go out of state to get the Tahoe from Quirk.

Yeah, I'm beginning to get the idea that Quirk is tacking costs on if you don't buy the ad car.
 
Way-OT warning below!!
 
 Last week, we bought a Malibu Maxx (NOT at Quirk): Quirk's ad price on a base/stripped Maxx (LS with 1SA) is 14,8. An upgrade to a 1SB package SHOULD be $833/inv $925/sticker. For some reason, on the phone Quirk was adding on $1700 ($16,500); we made it clear to them that we were getting lower offers, and we needed a lower price to drive all the way down to Braintree; they wouldn't budge. We ended up buying elsewhere for $15,8 (and $99 doc fee vs Quirk's $300 doc fee). Quirk's opening phone offer was so high that we never even bothered to visit them in person (and we bought a Tahoe from Qurik just 2 months ago)......

I don't really think that Quirk is competitive on anything but the cars featured in the newspaper ad. I am very glad I didn't waste the time to travel from NY to Braintree to try to hammer out a deal with them on the Z71.
There is less than a week left before the current incentives on the 2004 vehicles expire. I wonder who would bother with remaining 2004 inventory without the incentives when 2005 stock will be available.

GM Cutting 2005 Production by dammitjim1
Sep 02, 2004 (5:51 am)

I read yesterday that GM is cutting production of '05 vehicles due to poor August sales, down 10% on trucks compared with last yesr. I am curious as to what this might mean for the current 2004 incentives, which are set to expire on 9/7, and whether they will also extend their Pull Ahead program. Anybody want to speculate?
