I see in some posts the abbreviation ,GMS,what does that mean, I see it on a sheet the dealer gave me,and yes I forgot to ask him what that meant. I am turning in my Chevrolet 2500HD 4x4 on July 3rd ,it is a "03" ,so am looking at better gas mileage ,than 11 mpg.,it has the 6.0 in it, I wanted to buy it from the bank,but,there price on it was crazy,15,500.00,since they said they were going to send it to the auction anyways ,I wanted to see if they would discount it ,but ,hell no,they would rather take a loss at the auction,go figure!!

Replying to: jfritsch (Jun 14, 2008 5:45 am) I paid my security deposit, lisence plate fee, tire warrenty, doc fee and first months payment up front for about $889 (had to buy a new plate$$). If you knew a little about math, you would find that you give money away if you put money down on a lease. So here's your line by line striaght off my contract. a. Gross cap cost..........27577.23 b. cap cost reduction.....$4200 (3000 loyalty cash plus 1200 all star edition cash) c. adjusted cap cost......$23377.23 d. residual value.........$19567.20 e. depreciation etc.......$3810.03 f. rent charge...............$3118.17 g. total base of monthlypayments .....$6928.20 h. lease payments .................36 (sorry, i think I said 39 initially) i. base payment....................$192.45 j. tax.....................................$11.55 Total........................................$204 You have to remeber that right now the LT1 with the power pack and the all star pack have extra discounts. This site is to help folks out about cars and trucks. I got a lot of info off here before I leased this, which I am greatful for. It is just really sad that some folks try to pump thier egos up by trying to make someone look bad, when in this case, this guy didn't get all the info, and now needs to say he is sorry to me... Next time buddy, just ask nicely to fill in all the gaps. As you can see, I am more than happy to show you how I got my payment.

Replying to: hotrod1965 (Jun 14, 2008 9:13 am) 1. You said initially that your MSRP was $30,110 with GMS Price of $26,708 with some additional undocumented $2,000 rebate phantomly applied. It doesn't make any sense. 2. You said you put "OUT THE DOOR NO MONEY DOWN" when in fact you now claim to have paid at least $889. Nothing down indicates to most people SIGN AND DRIVE. ZERO OUT OF POCKET. 3. Someone asked what SELLING PRICE was and you said... "I'm not really sure, didn't look at it that close. I get GMS and there are $5000 in rebates. So it must have been around 22K." Now you are claiming $6,200 in rebates. What? 4. You claimed initially that you leased for 39 months now claim 36 months. How could you not at least get this right? Don't tell me you don't know 36 from 39. 5. Your residual is around what 65%? On a 2wd 36 month? That is suspect. Plus your money factor seemed low to what others were getting. Again, I'm not privy to the newest info. Just saying. If these numbers ARE correct, post them right the first time. Don't guess "around $22K" and expect anyone to believe you. I still don't think that GMS price on a $30,110 MSRP is $26,708 and I don't think the residual would even be within 10% of 65%. When I looked at GM Family First website it was not even close to that. However, that was not knowing your options on the truck. I would ask you what options you have but I would probably get 3 different answers so it just isn't worth my time.

| Live here in Arlington,Texas ,am looking at 2008 CrewCab 1500,with a 5.3L engine,2wd, with LT1 convenience package and the Texas Edition,cloth seats. On the paperwork the salesman gave me it has 32,900.00MSRP,,,,invoice amount,,,,,30,649.00,,,GMS amount,,,29,120.85. Now they are offering to sell me this vehicle for 30,424 plus 2000.00 rebate ,plus 3,000.00 GM loyality dicount ,which brings to sale price to 25,524.00. Would this be a good deal or do I need to try to get this price down more yet??? Don't forget this is 60 month no interest rite now also. Thanks for any help | |

Replying to: djhalptert (Jun 15, 2008 8:28 am) So to clearify for everyone. I have the invoice in my hand right now, and the GMS price really is $26708. If I could post PDF's I would be more than happy to post it here. You want me to email it to you, I will. GMS is usually about 10%(at least off the last two cars I have bought). So to help you out, 10% of 30K, is 3000. So GMS should be about 27K. So how is 26708 that far off from the 27K estimate? That would be $292 to help you out with the math...(Maybe you are confusing GMS with invoice price?? GMS is less than invoice, the invoice price was $28017) As far as the rebates, I just looked online on what GM was offering, and it seemed it was 5k. As far as flip flopping posts.... I did say I wasn't sure on the numbers, then I went and got you the line by line. I'm missing the flip flop here... AGAIN, the dealer gave me the bottom line, and I said I'll take it. At $204 per month, I don't really care how they get there. When you buy with GMS, it isn't going to get any cheaper... You also have to figure that my deals here in SE Michigan, for a family member of a GM employee, might be a little different than other parts of the world. Our lease rates might be a little better. i just wish you woulld cool it a little. All you have to do is ask and I will look into it for you. there is no real reason to be a prick about it. Why would I lie about something llike a lease payment? I posted it to let folks know that great deals are out there if you want to lease. If you do your home work, you would know that dealers add onto the base lease payment to make more money. You can use this info as a barganing point, since you will get two different lease rates for the same truck from different dealers.... As far as options. It is a LT1, has the LT1 con. pack, All star edition and a ez lift gate, 3.73 rear.

Replying to: crewcabb (Jun 15, 2008 11:28 am) Would say its a great deal, but if a used 07 like it with 15000 miles has a trade in value of 19000, that may really mean about 17 and change if that. You see where I'm going here. You don't know where the bottom is unless you get competitive bids to find out. Deals like this should get some of the folks to calm down about low lease payments as these trucks are moving like mud. They've made the GM, Ford and other domestic manufacturers viable, with their high markups. They say they are going to concentrate on making higher mileage vehicles profitable, but they've said that for years. Good luck --jjf Live here in Arlington,Texas ,am looking at 2008 CrewCab 1500,with a 5.3L engine,2wd, with LT1 convenience package and the Texas Edition,cloth seats.
