Chevrolet Rebates by harold1
Aug 10, 2004 (1:43 pm)
Reply
The Edmunds Chevrolet 1500 Truck rebate page indicates $3,500 in cash and a second $1,000 in cash. However, the dealer indicates he is unaware of the second $1,000 rebate but is aware of a $1,500 rebate from GMAC if financed with them. Can anyone shed light on the $1,000 rebate noted on the Edmunds rebate page?

Harold, go directly to the chevy web site for your rebate info. The link is: www.chevrolet.com
For example, the Northeast states have a 5k rebate on the 2004 Silverado thru 9/7/4 for cash deals.

Hey Harold, WWW.GMBUYPOWER.COM lists (as of today) a $5,000 cash rebate PLUS. I'll say it again PLUS another $1,500 if one finances the purchase via GMAC. In other words, your looking at a rebate of $6,500. Sounds too good to be true? I don't think so for the competition is greater now than it ever has been in the tuck arena.

FORGET my previous "post" Harold. The TOTAL rebate is $5K which INCLUDES $1,500 if one finances via GMAC. If not then the rebate is $3,500.

Incentives upcoming by hydn

Does anyone have knowledge of what incentives for GM have done in the past AFTER the new models are in the dealerships? I am thinking they reevaulate inventory and make a decision. I am assuming this year there will be alot of V8 trucks left over and the incentives will be even bigger. Anyone else any thoughts?

My memories seem to be that when the new model year vehicles start hitting the lots, the incentives on the prior year vehicles stay in place or increase marginally. There are usually little or no incentives on the new model year at that time. For best selection on prior model year vehicles, I'd deal right now with the current incentives and not wait for some marginally increased incentive on a lower supply of vehicles to choose from.

Chevy crewcab or Ford 1/2 ton crewcab by ebrum

hi, I've heard the Chevy 6.0L isn't very good at pulling travel trailers. I want to be able to pull a 28" travel trailer loaded to about but prob NOT over 8000lbs. I had planned on buying one, but am now scared off.
 
I went to Ford and found the 1/2 ton can pull 9500 pounds (seems like a lot to me), but have read some Edmunds test drivers and they have different opinions. I sure would like some opinions on either or both brands.

04 extended cab by sst

Just picked up my new 04 LS 1500 extended cab with locking diff, fog lights, deep tint, Silver Birch.....
walked on the Paradise Chev lot in Temecula, Ca. at 09:00; asked the sales guy to give me the same deal Power Chev in Irvine is advertising and save me the drive. His reply: okay.
sticker price with bed liner $28,616.
minus $3500 rebate.
minus $1500 finance rebate
minus $4000 discount equals offer by Irvine dealer
so, now I'm at $19616
I say drop the alarm they just make noise.
His reply: okay.
minus about $300
We take the test drive. I say drop the bed liner and we have a deal.
His reply: okay.
minus $299
equals $9,600 of the MSRP sticker
So, I'm out the door at $21,500 at 11:00
Done deal.
I go home. My neighbor says: Hey, nice truck, I was thinking of getting a new one this weekend too. So, I give him the add and my story.
He drives up the next day in his new LS 1500 extended cab with deep tinted windows and fog lights all happy with the same deal. So, I say you could have at least got a different color. His reply: But now I have a body parts source close to home.
So, now I trust my car dealer more than my friendly neighbor. Go figure.

I've posted this somewhere before, but will post again so you don't have to search. I'm in the 'Meet the Owners' if you want to check the specs on my truck. I pull a 26' Trail-Lite 7260 travel trailer, 4400 lbs empty, near 6000 lbs when loaded down. Most times I don't even notice it is back there unless I'm pulling up a steep grade. I use the 'Tow Haul', which brings my gas mileage down, but I've never got less than 9 MPG with a head wind and hills. My avg is 11 MPG when pulling the camper. The suspension can definitely handle the load and I believe the drive train can too. Currently at 63,000 miles and running strong.
 
Can't give any advice on the Ford, never owned one.
 
Hope that helps. Bud

GMAC financing rules by adscurry
Sep 02, 2004 (6:25 am)
Reply
I understand to get the extra $1,500 rebate or $5,000 in total I have to finance with GMAC. Dealer told me that it is 7.99% and not simple interest -- may be a rule of 78's -- interest computation that will mean all of the early payments are applied to interest. If the loan is paid off in less than 5 years the effective interest rate can be sky high. What is the min. loan a dealer or GMAC will except to get the extra $1,500 on the 2004 Silverados. Why not just finance some very small amount. Any experiences on these issues is appreciated.
