Replying to: tha_lildude (Nov 07, 2008 1:42 pm) You may have answered your own question noting there are only 6 dealerships in the state.(there are 33 within 40 miles of me). If you are in a captive mkt like hawaii, your options may be limited. If you don't need a truck now, I would try the end of month thing for a few months, especially if you expand it to Ford and Toyota. I also have no idea what prices you are getting. A 07 32000 msrp chev truck barely has a trade in of 17000 (if that) so you would want at least 10k off an 08 Good luck --jjf ALL the dang dealerships in alaska wont budge on price. they simply wont. i go in, talk for 2 hours, and they wont budge. they tell me they can give me the current offers and thats it, so i say no take something off, they say they simply "cant lose money" and every time i walk out. nothing happens. they call me tell me to come back in, i go in, they show me the truck again, show me the price plus the current offers, they wont even take a penny off because they "cant lose money" and i tell them no again and walk out. im 21 years old, maybe thats why? anyone have advice? ive been to EVERY dealership in alaska. which is about 6 or so. ive been doing this for like 6+ months and i get the same answer EVERY freakin time. any advice would be GREATLY appreciated. |

i dont understand this. dealerships in the lower 48 consistantly sell vehicles for under invoice and on top of that, you get the rebate. say a truck is 32,000 msrp, the invoice is 30,000, and the rebate is 5,000. alaska dealerships right now say 30,000 plus 5,000 rebate. and consistantly say "we cant lose money". ok well how can dealerships down in the states sell a vehicle for under 30,000 plus rebate. example i got a quote from bill pierre, the truck was 1,000 UNDER invoice plus rebate of 7,000. putting the truck at almost 11.5k under msrp. so to jjf, how do i go about getting a truck, msrp of 37,550, red tag plus 6500 rebate on it now puts it at 28,133. how can i get it for 10k off?!? its just frustrating to me. thank you for your help! i know all about dealer holdback and everything. i know when gm says ok red tag on there vehicles, that the dealerships get an additional incentive to sell. and they still simply wont budge.

Replying to: dave27615 (Nov 17, 2008 6:47 pm) What was the sticker? A good deal is about 7-8% off sticker plus rebates. If you can get 10-12% off sticker plus rebates, then you're talking employee pricing. |

sticker (msrp) was $33,165 ... BTW, the "Red Tag" was 23,737. NC taxes are 3%, tags are $68. I spoke with the sales guy (one of the commercial/fleet guys) over a couple of days and he said he couldn't come down off the "red tag". I said fine, but I would only pay $50 for a doc fee (they wanted $399), taxes and 68 for tags. He actually came back to me with a lower price. As you can see, the red tag price plus state tax is over the OTD price I have. So they did come down off the red tag enough to negate the other fees; plus they threw in a bed liner. |

I just got an email from GM to voice my concerns on their behalf. They directed me to this site http://gmfactsandfiction.com/ They must be getting worried.
