2005 Pricing/Incentives Durango by frankyg

Any truth to the rumor the Daimler/Chrysler will be offering employee pricing on all Dodge vehicles starting July 06, 2005? I'm looking to purchase an '05 Durango SLT and the rebates now are $4,000. Wonder if the employee pricing will be a better deal than the current rebate?

You can try, but it is unlikely that dealers will go any lower, given that employee pricing is just about the lowest they can afford to go.

We bought ours Saturday. It is a Limited almost loaded out. Sticker was $38,800 plus some dealer add on junk. This one had been used by owners wife and had 4900 miles. They were around $30,000 with employee price and rebate. After much arguing we were able to get them down to $27500 drive out plus a low interest rate. They wanted to stick with employee pricing plus the rebate so we walked away. They came after us and agreed to what we wanted. While we were signing papers they wanted to claim someone used the wrong tax rate and the price would be 1% higher. We started to walk away again and they adjusted the price. We have put less than 100 miles on it but the wife and I both love it. Although this one had a few miles on it I think you can probably still negotiate a little.

Seems like they will negotiate a little more on Demo's or Durango's w/the 4.7 V8

Advice - 2004 leftover Durango SLT by frankyg
Aug 12, 2005 (5:45 pm)

I happend by a local Dodge dealer in my area and saw that they had a 2004 SLT brand new, never titled and loaded sitting on their lot. MSRP $39,105. They say they can "Let it go" for $28,000. Good deal or not? (2005's w/similiar options and special pricing still around 33,000) Any advantages or disadvantages to this deal, other than the 2004 its almost 2 years old.
 
Thanks

2005 Durango SLT "G" pkg. by frankyg

Is this a good deal? '05 Durango SLT "G" pkg., heated front seats, Family Value group, towing pkg. MSRP $38,795. They are offering me $14,800 for my trade, a 00 Dakota Quad cab, leaving $23,995 + 9.5% tax & tags for a total of $26,342, less the $3500 rebate for a price of $22,842.03 out the door.
They took the Employee Pricing off the table when I offered my trade up and are making it look like they are giving me more for my trade. Is this common practice? Are they still making out from the manufacturer in the Employee Pricing by collecting that rebate and not offering it to me?

Durango SXT 4X4 '05 by slic38

After GM and Ford announced increased rebates on remaining 2005 models so did Chrysler.
I saw a ad in the paper saying the all '05 Durango's had a $7,000 rebate. I considered buying one this summer during the employee pricing but they were only discounted about $5,000 total.
On Saturday I drove a SXT 4X2 at a local dealer and made him a offer. $10,000 under sticker price. ($7k rebate + $3k dealer discount). They would only reduce it by $8850 which they said was $100 over invoice before rebate. I walked on that great deal. I went home and called a few dealers 200 miles away. I found one that would take my $10K under sticker offer. I did not want to drive 3 hours to get that deal. The next day I found a 4X4 SXT 4.7 Durango at a dealer 45 miles away. He would only go $9k below sticker. 15 minutes after he told me that, his sales manager called me and accepted my offer. I told him I wanted to think about it since my wife and I wanted a 4X2. Today the salesman called me to see if I was still interested. I told him my wife was at work and I could not get a ride to his dealership. He offered to deliver the vehicle to me for free. WHAT A DEAL!!!!!!!!
The price I paid is almost 1/3 off. That sounds more like a sale at JC Penney then a sale at a Dodge Dealer.
 
2005 Durango SXT 4X4 4.7-V8
MSRP $31,875
-$7,000 Dodge Factory Rebate
-$3,000 Dealer Discount
= $21,875
+ $2596.32 tax, license, fees
$24,471.32 out the door
 
I live in Central California. The dealer is in a town called Visalia. Surroz Dodge.

A national paper would like to hear from consumers who are back looking at SUVs with the drop in fuel prices. If you have a story to share about how you had put your search on hold, but are now looking at SUVs again, please respond to ctalatiedmunds.com with your daytime contact info., city/state of residence, and the make/model(s) that you are looking for no later than Wednesday, November 9, 2005

Durango SXT 4X4 2005 Mineral Gray Metalic by tfrieling

I had been looking in October at the 05 Durango since they had $5000 in rebates but I decided to wait and see what the deals in November would bring. Turns out it was another $2000. Here is good tip, send away for the Durango brochure from the dodge website. Included in mine was an extra $500 rebate to be used on top of any other rebate. My breakdown looks like this.
 
2005 Durango SXT 4X4 4.7-V8 Mineral Gray Metalic 3rd row Seat

= $21,375
+ $2325 tax/title/license/doc fees
= $23,700 out the door
I live in the Southwest Suburbs of Illinois
The dealer was Downers Grove Dodge
