Replying to: trousermouse (Mar 11, 2008 10:48 pm) Good luck --jjf I’m in the process of buying a new Silverado 1500 LTZ. The dealer has a few 07’s on the lot and I’m thinking about making an offer. The one I want, MSRP is $41,505. It was built in November of 2006 and has 143 miles on it. It looks like it was transferred to the dealership from another dealership because the invoice and sticker lists another dealer about 50 miles away. They tell me there are no Factory to Dealer incentives but I think that is BS on the 2007 year models. Edmunds says they are up to $3000. Add that to the Factory to Consumer rebates and I should be looking at $6000 in rebates providing the dealer is willing to give me all of their incentive. This dealer (Austin, TX) is the only one who still has 07’s on the lot. I guess that should tell me a lot on how they won’t make any good deals on the older models. Anyway, anyone know what a good price on a 1 ½ year old new truck would be? |

Replying to: samhell99 (Mar 14, 2008 8:58 am) As for negotiating a price at the dealer, I would not pay more than invoice. There is a $440 Factory to Dealer incentive on most Silverado’s and I would make them give you every penny of it. The sales person may not be aware of the incentive but the sales manager definitely knows so don’t get to rude with the sales person just yet. If they act dumb, print this out and take it with you. http://www.edmunds.com/new/2008/chevrolet/silverado1500/100911251/incentives.htm- - - l?vdp=off&setzip=78759&state=TX Update: Just noticed the Factory to Dealer incentive is only available to residents of the following: LA/OK/TX/Select Counties in AR/KS/MS/MO/NM. Truck and SUV sales are way down and the purpose of the incentive is to stimulate sales. Also, on the invoice you will see LAM Dealer and LAM Group contribution. That isn’t a contribution in your favor and is just a junk advertising fee to give the dealer more profit. Some dealers will drop it if you push hard enough and others won’t. With truck sales down you have pretty good chance of getting them to do it. Give them the price you will pay and stick with it. They will try every trick to get you to budge. Tell them that if they want to sell you a car, that’s the price. If they say no deal, give them a business card or a piece of paper with you phone number and tell them you are going up the road to XYZ dealership and if they change their mind to give you a call. Also make sure you specify when you give them the price that it is $XX,XXX plus TT&L. Otherwise they will try and add other fees to the price. Good luck. Donnie

I got it for $800 below invoice and 0% interest for 60 months. MSRP was $40,135 I think I got a good deal. |

i'm a bit confused. edmunds describes the invoice price as the price the manufacturer charges the dealer. if this is true, why would a dealer sell a truck for less than what they paid for it? most posts suggest paying at least $1000 below invoice. doesn't sound like a profitable business to me. please correct me if this is not the case. i'm looking at a 2008 LT1 ext 2wd with the california package with an msrp of $29400. edmunds doesn't list provide the cal. pkg price, so i can't get the invoice from this website, but it seems to be typically about 10% below MSRP. so am i correct in assuming the invoice in the truck i'm looking at is about $26500? What do you guys think would be a good target price for this truck? I want to do the 0% instead of the rebates because the interest savings are greater in the long run. thanks in advance for your replies. J
