| I requested prices and they seem to be pretty good now. The highest I got was at John Elway (obviously Denver) - 1% over invoice on any. The lowest (I'm still working) is 22300 on an AWD LT 1SD - MSRP 25,700 (about $2500 under invoice) - two came in at about $1500 under invoice {$1000 of this is rebate) and one came in $500 under invoice. One won't even give me a price via e-mail so I quit trying (Century Auto in Broomfield just gave me MSRP and Invoice prices - like I didn't already have them). Should have one by Thursday. | |

| I plan on buying an Equinox any time now. The incentive rebate is staying at $1000. Any opinions if it will ever go higher or am I waiting for nothing. | |
Just wanted everyone to know this when considering buying an Equinox. First let me say that I love my Equinox - purchased last November. However, I am extremely disappointed with the CD player and the dealership. After less than a month of owning my car, the cd player broke. I don't mean it locks up or gives an error occasionally. I mean that I can't play CD's at all! If I try to put one in, it gets stuck and won't play. I have the 6 cd changer and at one time I had 6 cd's stuck at once. I have to wait a few days and then I can eject them, but they will never play. I am very upset about paying for something that is useless and apparently can't be fixed. The sales and service people apparently know nothing about this problem. I was given a copy of a GM bulletin on my last visit to the service department - Document #1580349 about "2005 Chevrolet Equinox Inoperative 6 Disc CD Player and MP3 CD Player Investigation". To summarize what it says: Dealers with in 2 hours of Toronto, Detroit or Kokomo can contact an engineer who will come to the dealership to examine and perhaps repair the cd player. Otherwise, no repairs can be made. "Engineering is working on a fix". I have already been told that to fix the CD player in an Equinox, it will have to be removed and sent out - leaving you without a radio, on-star, cd player etc for at least a week, possibly longer. And, who knows when a fix is going to be available.

sbanda -- Sorry to hear about your bad luck. Your comments are probably more appropriate for the regular Equinox forum, which you can find using the drop down menus at the left of the page, or you may find an appropriate discussion in the "Problems" forum. |

My father took advantage of the current incentive program June 8, 2005. He bought for me a 2005 Laser Blue Equinox LT with a few Indiana-dealer-ordered options. He felt the prices were too good to pass. We went to the dealer last month instead of waiting until January 2006. He's a great believer in having the extended warranty program and mop-and-glow. My 10 year-old hatchback-coupe trade-in was priced as "good will". When his check was delivered and I signed the papers, I drove and he rode away with me at $25,6XX which was some-what-less than the posted MSRP plus options. BTW, has any member seen the e-news article stating that GM's market share went up to its market high 18-19 years ago? J K F |

Replying to: pdw (Jul 04, 2005 7:54 am) I don't know about your DMV; but Indiana's BMVC registers and tags the 2005 Chevrolet Equinox LT, front wheel drive, Truck Division-SUV as a Wagon with its drive as 4W Thursday evening , My father and I are going to a service seminar for Blue Boy. Do you remember the old Masters paintings of Pinky and Blue Boy?. My father calls him Ole Blue All most a month past purchase and I'm still waiting for the customer survey form. Maybe it'll be at the seminar :shrug: J K F |
