It was previously stated here that you should expect at least $10,000 off any 2007 silverado with a MSRP over $30,000.   Infact if you go up to posting # 371 jfritsch said: "A very good deal on that would be around 22000-23000 or so. (with the extra stuff) See if you can get it into that range."   The original MSRP of the 2007 silverado crew cab I was talking about was $31,300   The adjusted MSRP as of a few days ago was $32,494. (They added limo tint & 5 spoke factory aluminum wheels.) So the $22,000 to $23,000 range jfritsch is talking about is still this fabled $10,000 off MSRP   Granted $20,000 was a lower offer. $1,300 lower than $10,000 off we are talking about, but asking $26,889 is also a far cry from $10,000 off the MSRP. That is more like $4,411 off MSRP & this included all rebates etc.   I was willing to go up but the all the dealers were stuck Edmunds invoice + $275 + what ever BS they could think to add on to jack up the price and then they'd offer you the rebate.   I just don't see this magic MSRP - $10,000 deal happening anytime soon unless there is a large jump in the GM rebates.

Depending on how flexible you are with options and how hard up the dealer is. If inventories of 07s are manageable, they can take their time.   Happy drivin -jjf   I beg to differ.

Good luck now, GM just lowered the rebates this month. If someone gets the ad car and it is 10k off, don't expect another dealership to honor that price. Loss leader ads are just that, they lose the dealership money, hoping you will want another color or more options, and that more people coming looking for that car that is now sold and buy something else. People are also counting what they are saving in interest as the magic $10k off. Okay, makes sense but that is why people almost always op for the 0%. Interest on a 30k vehicle can very easy be upwards of 5-7k so you save lets say 7k in interest due to 0% and another 2-3k in profit the dealer has and now you are at the 9-10k mark. The dealer would love to have 7-10k in profit, but guess what, they don't.     You want huge rebates? Then all of use that have already bought a Chevy or are going to buy a Chevy should be unhappy due to the huge rebates ruining our resale or trade-in value. Go try and trade in a dodge that have 5-10k in rebates ALL the time and see what they are worth.     Bottom line if you want to save the most money look for an ad unit, and hope it has everything you want, which it probably won't. You can't have your cake and eat it to, so to say. Either pay more or settle, whatever makes you happy, but don't expect the impossible.   Rant off thanks

Replying to: trumanm (Jan 01, 2008 10:46 pm) It is cheaper to buy a Garmin Nuvi 350 GPS for about 300+/- than to have the GM mounted Nav. system. When you sell your vehicle you cannot take the mounted one with you. And also the portable Garmin can be used in any vehicle. Save the $ and use it somewhere else.

Replying to: jfritsch (Jan 05, 2008 10:00 pm) Obviously, 5k off msrp with 0% financing is about a 10000 off msrp deal. (if your credit isn't perfect.)   --jjf   A very good deal would be 9000-10000 off msrp. What you should expect when clearing out the 07s (aug-november) would be 7000-10000 off.

#380 of 616 How about a little help for a little lady? by sinjineer Jan 29, 2008 (1:51 pm)
So I'm looking at a 2008 2500hd with the diesel, ltz package (need the comfy chair) and all the tow stuff. MSRP is about $50,500. Dealer offer is $44,000. I will probably be paying cash. Is this ok?   I hate buying cars. ;( Replies to this message: jackel142 (Jan 29, 2008 2:01 pm)

Replying to: sinjineer (Jan 29, 2008 1:51 pm) You could probably get a better deal if you were to have them finance it. The dealership makes money on the finance rate. You should be able to get them down below 42k for that truck.
