To those who responded to my questions in particular owns2chvtrks and dillydill, thanks very much for the input and sharing your experiences with some Chevy dealers in obtaining a truck. I have a 2002 Chevy Suburban z71 with 18,000 miles and love it. I haven't had any problems with it whatsoever. The truck I'm looking at is a leftover 2004 Silverado Z71 4x4 4 Door crew cab, 5.3l v8, with running boards, trailer pkg, and Bose speaker system. MSRP is 37567, and with current factory discounts, rebates, etc., the price is at 28919, which seems like a good deal to me. Because I'm looking to take the 0% financing I lose 5k on the truck so my price is 33919 which if financed at 0% is cheaper for me in the long run. The other piece of my situation (which I only have myself to blame) is i'm underwater on a two trades on making to obtain the vehicle but my third trade covers the difference as i own the last car free and clear. Yes, im trying to trade three cars, long story. I've looked around for the last several months for a truck and I really like the power in the Chevy. I drove a 2004 Ford f150 crew cab with the 4.6L v8 engine but it had no acceleration whatsover. The Ford delaer is asking 29500 for the 4 door 2004 f150 with a 5.4 l v8 (i didn't drive it but assume it probably has more pickup than the 4.6), power moonroof, step bars and a few other features. I didn't look at Dodge. Looked at 2005 Toyota Tundra, 4 door, SR5, dealer asking 31000, 282 hp v8. Tundra just seemed "soft" but actually a pretty nice truck especially since it comes with the 6 foot bed. Anyhow, thanks to all who provided some input and I hope you all have a great holiday. jcchevy |

Replying to: jerrymcshane1 (Dec 28, 2004 9:52 am) The Avalanches weren't going for nearly so much off the stickers, but those red tags on the 1500 Silverados made my jaw drop. (Just paid ~32k after trade on a 35k truck, adding in 1500 debt on the trade + spray in liner + 0 ded 72 month extended warranty, back in October) |

Replying to: jerrymcshane1 (Dec 28, 2004 9:52 am) Think about it: There's $3,500 in incentives on some Silverado models. Add $1,500 in instant value coupons. With those discounts, you're at ~17% off a 30K MSRP (without negotiating a single penny off the MSRP). To get to your "AT BEST" 20% discount, they only need to knock $1,000 off MSRP (nowhere near invoice, forget about invoice minus holdback minus MFG-dealer incentives). I'm not sure where you get your 'going rate' values, but I'm afraid you're misinformed. When I bought my 04 Silverado, I got over 45% off MSRP. To be fair, $994 of that was GM Card earnings, and $1,500 was a GMAC bonus (not currently offered), so I wouldn't expect that sort of discount off an 05 (without the GM Card). The equivalent deal right now (without the extra incentives) would be: $16,506 (Price paid) +$1,500 (GMAC bonus) +$994 (GM Card $) =$19,000 (~37% discount).

| We are interested in replacing our diesel F250HD that we use for snowplowing and towing a horse trailer/boat. I can't seem to find any of the Chevy Silverado's with a diesel that take a snowplow package. Is this just not an option? We really want the diesel engine. | |

Hi all, In follow-up to a discussion I wrote 12-24-04, I went ahead and confirmed some 04 Silverado prices. I had looked and test drove 04 Silverado Z71 Crew cab (standard 1500), 05 Cilv Crew Cab Z71, 04 Ford F150 Crew Cab, 04 Nissan Titan Crew, and 05 Toyota Tundra Double Cab. Prices the dealers were selling these for, as of Dec 31, 2004 were as follows (all bottom lines): 04 Chevy Silv Z71, Crew Cab, standard 1500, 28,919 - taking all factory rebates, incentive, and bonus cash and financing at 6.9% for 5 years. Truck came with standard bucket seats, cloth, Bose speakers, z71 package, tow, package, side steps. No XM FM radio or sunroof. 2005 Chevy Silv Z71, Crew Cab, standard 1500, 30775 - taking all factory rebates, incentive, and bonus cash and financing at 6.9% for 5 years. Truck came with standard bucket seats, cloth, Bose speakers, z71 package, tow, package, no side steps AND XM FM radio AND sunroof. Silver in color. 04 Ford f150 XLT crew cab - 5.4 L V8, moonroof, tow, bed liner, bucket seats, cloth, 29,500 taking all incentives, bonus cash etc. and financiving for 60 months at 7%. 04 Titan Crew Cab, SE, 29990 - taking discounts, bonus cash, rebates, etc, and financing for around 6.9%, 60 months. Included tow, off road, bedliner and a few extras. 05 - Toyoato Tundra Double Cab SR5 - 31000, taking current rebate of $1250 (or maybe $1500 - I can't remember) and financing around 6.9% for 60 months. Included tow pkg and all standard SR5 features with only thing missing was the moonroof. Lot's of pretty good deals out there for these full size trucks. Take care. jcchevy |
