Replying to: mantrasia (Jul 01, 2006 9:13 pm)  The "best price" went from $34-33-32.5-31.9-31.6-31.4 Frankly if we didnt own the durango this year we didnt really care. We still have to get her car sold yet. We locked in a trade price good for the rest of july so if we cant get it sold we get that price. In ND it was very very difficult to find one with Full Curtain airbags and rollover. That was a requirement basicly that and leather so the rest was gravy. When I looked at the Dodge truck finder thing this was the only one in ND. There were about 15-20 more in the minneapolis/WI area but none were a lower priced msrp package, they were all fully loaded with options to get the full curtain bags. I wish these manufacturers would wise up that just because I want safty I dont necessarily want DVD/Navigation/18" wheels/blah/blah. We were shopping the Ford expedition and the durango, same story with Ford. Try and find an 06 with RSC and leather and its like finding a White Buffalo. You cant throw a dead cat around here without hitting one of those King Ranches but they are so hideious. The Ford dealer found us a 06 Ed Bauer with RSC and leather but their best price was $36K. The expy isnt worth anymore than the Durango. They both have their upsides with Dodge its more nimble and better engine, Ford is nicer seating and nice ride with IFS/IRS, but the 5.4 engine sucks as its too underpowered in the Expys. Good luck! |

i actually ended up calling the chrysler rebate hotline, and the general idea was that they werent quite sure what was going on. what they did end up saying though, is that the 4500 thats listed in their example is a typo of some variety. they also said that even though the $5000 cash incentive that is still listed as being available until july 5th, is no longer valid, and has been replaced with a $3000 incentive. so in effect, the new july deals are worse for durangos than the june promo. employee pricing is clearly a shell game promo....pointless in my opinion unless their goal is to frustrate and annoy potential customers. here's how it breaks down from what i'm seeing June promo $5000 incentive $2000 incentive (if vehicle's been on the lot for a while) i had talked to plenty of dealers that were starting negotiations from invoice, not MSRP, so where there's a typical difference between invoice and MSRP of about $3000, we're talking $10,000 off MSRP. which for the durango i was looking at, was $40,000, minus the $10K, left the price about $30K plus tax. now with the new EPP hocus pocus, the dealer doesnt deak from invoice anymore, not to mention the rebate is only $3000 now. so that same $40K durango is now EPP priced at $36800, then minus the $3000 brings it to $33800. the aged inventory incentive of $2000 apparently is still in effect until the 5th, so you might get someone to do that still, but even then, it only brings the price down to $31800. pretty much $2000 more than what they were going for a week ago. pretty clever of chrysler to roll out a new "promo" that actually brings the prices up on vehicles. |

Looking at 06's. Got the report from consumer's. Now I'm getting dealer quotes that are below the reported bottom line. What am I to believe?

Replying to: ststock23 (Aug 08, 2006 2:57 pm) Tons of hidden dealer cash here. Even 10k off sticker (the cheap models) is not giving them away. The Honda Pilot is a highly rated SUV on edmunds and it depreciates 10k in a year. Many people are negotiating 6500-7500+ off MSRP. --jjf Looking at 06's. Got the report from consumer's.

Replying to: plainsman (Aug 19, 2006 6:26 am) I traded my 2000 slt plus with every option, 80,000 miles. I purchased the 2006 st. Stripped down nothing model with a tow package I don't need. Even with cash back I am paying 520 a month to chrysler financial. I hate this truck! The gas milage is horrible. The warranty is not even close to the one I ahd before and all of the perks aren't included with the roadside assistance such as lock out, gas and flat tire. All of these were on my old truck. The dealer told me I was getting the same warranty and that the gas milage was comparable.HA

I bought a 2006 Durango Limited with every option available except GPS. The sticker price was about 42K. I bought it with the E.P. price Employee Price of $28,6000 after rebates. So far, I really love this truck.
