If you don't mind a few day trips (one trip to pay for the car and sign the papers, and another trip up after you do all your local DMV paperwork to pick up the vehicle) to save a few thousand bucks, we went from NJ to my old stomping grounds in Boston. There's a huge dealership just south of Boston: Quirk Chevy in Braintree, MA. They have a web site with their current ads.
 
Today's ad shows a Z71 with a sticker of 45,010, dealer discount of 7011, rebate of 5000, to get you down to 32,999. This isn't one of those places where you have to be there when the doors open to get vehicle in the ad; when we got our Tahoe last month, they showed 170+ Tahoes just in their own personal inventory. Their ads are not come-ons, but legit sale prices; we've been buying from them based on this for years.
 
I looked all over my area of NJ, and no one came within thousands of the price we got at Quirk (sticker of 39,900, cash price of 28,700), plus they had Tahoes with minimal options, which were hard to find in NJ.

04 Tahoe Shopping by tauberj

Hi, I'm shopping for Tahoe LS with 3rd row seat, 17" wheels, wheel flares, side airbags, trailering, 1SK equipment package, cargo package, 6 cd stereo, etc. Vehicle lists for $42,295, dealer offer $37,870 plus $250 internet coupon. That's less than $4,500 off list. They claim it's invoice plus 1.5% advertising plus $50. After reading some of the posts, i do not think this is a good deal. But in northwest NJ, it's the best I've been able to come up with. I can also subtract the $5,000 loyalty, $1,000 Olds loyalty and $2,300 GM dollars. If this is a buyers market, the dealers are not recognizing it in NJ.

Tell me about the situation here in NJ. Either Tahoe sales are going great, or these dealers are gonna be stuck with a ton in stock. FWIW, I found that the NJ dealerships that offered internet/direct-mailing/newspaper coupons were already that much more over-priced to begin with.
 
As a point of reference since we bought ours up in Boston: a month ago I was offered (by the fleet/PowerBuy managers) Tahoes at $500-700 below invoice at several Boston area dealerships simply by asking for it OVER THE PHONE or internet. And that's before all the rebates. There is NO WAY the pre-rebate price should be OVER invoice.
 
I mentioned Quirk Chevy earlier. Just for giggles, print out their ad and show it to some of the salesmen in NJ, just to see their reactions. Sales managers reactions are even better......

Thanks. I'm requesting a quote from your dealership. How much under invoice did you pay (not including incentives)? I assume you got only the $5000 cash rebate. Thus, 84.4% of MSRP is about right based on the two vehicles you described. This should save me just over $2,000 if my offer is accepted.

I don't recall exactly what invoice was, but it was in the high $34Ks (IIRC, mark-up was ~$4700-4900). To make the numbers work, they moved the $ around on the Bill of Sale to make it show a rebate of $5500 even tho the very max rebate at the time was $5000. For my own sanity, I mentally moved that extra $500 over to the dealer discount.
 
Anyway, BoS shows sticker of 39,9, sale price of 34,2, then another $5500 off for rebates (including loyalty) to get us down to 28,7. So to answer your question: I consider it ~$1100-1200 below invoice, before $5K rebate.

Hi, I've been talking to that dealer and got number now. Though they do not have the exact truck I want, I can probably get a Z71 with 2nd row buckets/3rd row seat for the same price as the adequately optioned LS I priced in NW Jersey. I'll let you know how I make out. I just wonder what my dealer's service manager's face will express when I bring in a truck for warranty/recall service (I hope not) that was not purchased there. It ended up around $11K under sticker ($661 under invoice -$5000 rebate) when all is said and done.
Did you by the newspaper ad vehicle?

No, I didn't buy the ad truck, but their ad vehicle options change from time to time; they can do their biggest markdown on whatever they buy a lot of (usually either completely stripped or very loaded). Most times, they will have a sufficient number of ad vehicles, but if you want just a few more or less options, they may not offer the big discount they show in the ad.

Thanks again. They price three for me and all were discounted the same. Basically, they give you the holdback. The add vehicles, they claim, are discounted more because of incentives to them from Chevy. Still, a better deal than at home. Explain the purchase process since MA does not have temp. registration. Also, how was you delivery experience? Also, do you think I have any more haggle room?

Drop me an email. No need for us to clog up this thread with a lot of info on one out-of-state purchase......

GMC Yukon deal by jayboxx

Just got my first GMC product (Previously had mostly Ford/Mercury)
 
While waiting for the kids to get on a plane to visit their grandparents, I was taking a look through the paper, and saw the $5k rebate offer on the Yukons, so on a whim went to the local dealer.
 
An hour later, drove out in a 04 Yukon. Sticker was around $35,900, dealer discounted down to $27,800, and with the $5k rebate price was $22,800. Financing through GMC was at 4.7% (for 72 months no less), so no way was I going to turn down the rebate to get 0% interest. I didn't do a trade-in.
 
So far, had the Yukon for about 2 weeks and love every bit of it. Drives and handles great, and I love the room (Biggest vehicle I had previously was a Mercury Mountaineer).
