We were looking at 2004 Maxx LTs in fall 2004. Had several dealers in southeast Michigan willing to sell for $500 below GMS, then subtract all rebates/incentives.
We ended up buying a demo with 5,000 miles because the dealer was willing to go $1,500 below GMS.
All of my 'negotiating' was done via email.

you are right on.....they can't tell your mileage. I took a date stamped digital photo of my odometer on the day of my order, just in case they got suspicious that I was only 55 miles away from 12k. The guys in TX told me that they did not care if I went over the 12k mark, just as long as I did not put a number higher than 12k on my form. I would never do that, so I went with Blacks. Bottom line, the only way GM would know if you were lying, was if you went in for service and it had a higher number documented on the service request form.

all very interesting..but I just had some warranty work done at 21K..so all they would have to do is look up the service history.....and would see the mileage on that date...but good move on your part....im going with the 48/60 program...so that will cover me for the anticipate lenght of time I care to have the car covered..that give me almost 6 years and 85K..so a happy camper here..soon to be another Blacks GMPP owner!

Correct me if I am wrong, the time will add on the miles will not, still 60K. The Black site explains it with their samples.

both the time and miles will be added as i see in this one example from their site.
Example: On January 1, 2005 you purchase a GMPP on your 35 month old Corvette (Original GM In-Service date was December 1, 2002) with 35,000 miles on the odometer. You Purchase a 36 month / 36,000 miles GMPP Major Guard. Your GMPP Plan would expire on January 1, 2008 or 71,000 miles, whichever comes first.
this shows adding both the time and the miles and another cup and paste from their site...I agree..I find this too good...but maxx4me has received his GMPP paperwork and it covered from the date of purchase of the plan and added the mileage to his current reading!!
WHEN WILL THE PLAN EXPIRE?
The plan length and miles starts at the date of the GMPP purchase and at the odometer reading at time of purchase
here is the site i cut and pasted from :

Just an old man’s memory failing, I knew there was something about it I didn’t like. If I got the plan now I would lose the 2 yrs on my 36-36. The Corvette factory warranty purchased 4-1-04 would go to 4-1-07 and the 72 turns into 48, expires 1-1-2011. 11-7= 4. The risk GM takes is priced to match.

Joe..im confused..here..ok I admit it..do you already have a GMPP warranty that you purchased on 4-1-04 or are you assuming your normal factory warranty of 36-36 here....that rational is fine if you if your mileage and ownership time....coincide..meaning you drive 12k a year....I have 22 k on my car already at 16 months...at this rate...I reach my mileage limitation before I make my ownership of 36 months.......Im planning on getting the 48 month 72k program...so adding it to my projected date....6-1-05 purchase date and 24 k on my car..Im covered to 6-1-09 and 96K..my original in service date was 3/15/04 (3/15/07 with factory warranty which I anticipate will expire early 06 with mileage)..I'll give GM the year....for the mileage I drive....as I always break the mileage limitation around the two year mark anyway..

Yes I drive 12K a year, I own a car and truck, so I can control the mileage on the car by using the truck. The gas mileage on the truck is not as good as the Malibu but close enough, 4 cyl compact. I have never owned an extended warranty and I don’t think I will with this one. This is my third new vehicle since 99, one got totaled.
