Pulled the trigger yesterday on a Z71, MSRP $47200, DIP $42235. From a starting price of $42536 they factored in the $4500 in rebates which took things to $38036. Then the $1000 credit or rebate to finace at least $5000 for at least one month came along, which took things to $37036. Then they found two $500 dealer coupons sweeteners and rounded it off to $36k. Up to this point all communications were via email and a phone call or two. Then yesterday went in to take a test ride and talk. Things then went to $35700. Then sales manager came through with what was described as a supplier coupon or something like that which took it to a little under $35300 which was as far as he could go. I said I would think on it and talk to the other dealer but if he wanted to wrap it up for $35k and a years worth of oil changes we could wrap it up. The nice thing was I had almost 2k with the GM credit card and another k with a coupon. Total before tax and title was a shade over $32K. With taxes $34.6. Think it was a decent deal and glad to get it done. Very nice truck.

From what I've seen that's a great deal! Did you have to say anything to them to get the dealer and supplier coupons or did they come up with those ideas on their own? I didn't look Sat or Sun as I'm gonna call Mon to see what their inventory holds. I can't see giving the dealer $40 out the door when I see others out the door for < $35! If I can get the vehicle for $35 I'd pay TTL.

Great deal! I also made the plunge on Sat. Used GM Buypower site to look at inventories all over MD and VA. Found one I wanted in Easton, MD. Base MSRP was $39,850 which means it has been around since the beginning of the model year and I started out saving $550 over models delivered later in the year. Deal went as follows:
  MSRP: $43,545
  GM rebate: (4,500)
  GMAC rebate: ( 500) (will pay off loan 3 mon.)
  GM card: (4,000) (card earnings plus bonus)
  Dealer disc. (5,845)
 
Price before
tax and tags $28,700 ($887.45 below invoice),
                         less rebates & cards.
Dealer was very agreeable to each request, meaning I probably left money on the table. (kids and 2 labs waiting out in my Pathfinder, so I tried to expedite). I was eligible for Supplier Discount, but dealer did not use and gave me the same price less $500, (since GMAC rebate is $1000 in mid VA., and less $180 for wheel flares, which manager did not want to install so they could spot deliver me. Things that helped were: dealer had 16 'burbs in inventory, (Other dealers with fewer trucks would not deal as hard), matching VA. larger GMAC rebate , picking a truck that had been on lot for a while. Internet, (including this site) was a great help. I also found that, unlike dealers in Baltimore area who charge a "local advertising charge" on top of factory MSRP, there was no such charge from dealer on Eastern Shore, MD. In addition, I will get about $1300. from the Ford Citibank card (2% rebate on purchases to apply to any car), making the cost before tax and tags $27,400. I met my goal of beating price paid by a good friend on a Toyota Prius at full sticker plus months of wait time. I think I got a bit more vehicle. Can't wait to hitch up boat and roll!

I just love the dealer advertising here in DFW that they have only SIXTEEN hundred(!?!) 2004 Chevies left, "so hurry!" Talk about spin! Oh yeah, that's right. It is an election year!

Just drove home in my 2004 YUKON XL SLT, I was looking for a Silver one but settled on a Sport Red Metallic. I got every option except the snow plow package and the engine block heater! MSRP was $49,605.00 I drove it home for $36,605.00 total (tax and license included). On top of that, the dealer (Plaza GMC,Omaha,Nebraska) gives me free oil changes and tire rotations every 3000 miles for 3 years (no mileage restrictions). The kids love the DVD Player,and I love the fact that it has wireless head phones! I also got the 72 month no interest financing. How it happened I dont know but there were no rebates in the $13,000.00 taken off of the MSRP(according to edmunds pricing,I got the vehicle for about $3,200.00 under invoice). Looking through the paperwork I found out that mine was made in Mexico,so I hope I don't have any problems. I opted not to take the extended warranty. My buying experience was about the most trouble free I have ever had(I have bought 10 vehicles in my lifetime).

I wouldn't worry about it being from Mexico at all...that'a a good thing, at least in my view. We used to have an '02 Avalanche out of the same plant in Mexico and it was drum-tight, problem-free, and had perfect paint. That's pretty much the same for most every truck that comes out of Mexico.
 
When we were buying the new Suburban, I encouraged getting one from Mexico if possible, and that's what we were going to get, but it didn't work out and we ended up with a very early built Janesville truck (08/03...!). Build quality pretty much matches our Av, but the front bumper is just a little crooked and it's already had one or two issues with rattles/creaks. Overall still awesome, but I've only ever heard of more issues with the U.S. built ones.

Where did you buy your Yukon? I'm in Florida and not getting the pricing you did. I don't mind driving.

Sorry for the late response. I was out of town for the week. Regarding the coupons, I had to ask. My impression was if they tell you they are out of them and you hold your position, they will find them from somewhere. That's an extra grand. The dealer wasn't about to volunteer anything. They want to hold those coupons for the guy who is going to force their hand. I probably left money on the table, but I can't imagine you not getting your truck for under that 35K. Make sure you have at least a second dealer lined up. You're in the driver seat. Go for it and let me know how it turns out.

2005 Sub LT or Denali XL Pricing by frank310

I have been looking for a 2005 Sub LT with 2nd row bench, Sun/Sound/ Ent Package, Safe & Secure, Nav System, Locking Rear (if possible with Safe/Secure Package)and Wheel Flares in the new Bermuda Blue color. I got prices from 2 dealers of $48,500. I walked into a GMC Dealer saw a Denali XL in the same color and options I want and within 2 minutes gave me a price of $47,500. What would be the best I could get either one for?
Pricing given include rebates of $2,500 (Oct Truck Fest) I live in Northern NJ. Any advice will be a great help. Thanks
