My opinion is ..... If that is correct invoice .... I would say max price should be 48,639 minus 6000 ... 42639 and don't pay an outrageous doc fee or any weird dealer fees. At that price the dealer is making money.

One thing I need to keep in mind is .... these are good deals. The current offers are if you take delivery by 7-31-08. Who knows maybe the deals will get better ... maybe not. As bwalukonis pointed out, sooner or later chevy is going to figure this out and they will not need to offer these great incentives.
 
What they are doing now is not in their best interest ... sooner or later they will tighten up supply and the price firms up.
 
I'm the worlds worst ... still holding out for better deal ... I need to go ahead and pull the trigger

I am in the process of negotiating on a Tahoe with MSRP of $54,365 that is on the dealers lot. I'll keep you informed on how this goes. I sent an email on Monday night and got no response on Tuesday, so I sent another email to a different sales rep at the dealership last night. No wonder GM losses sales, how do you not respond to a sales lead within 24 hours.
 
 I am also looking at another vehicle and that sales rep. sent me 6 emails yesterday. Has located vehicle (was not on their lot) and we are within $500 of negotiating price.
 
GM dealership will have 1 day to try and give me a better deal or I will end up buying other vehicle.

In the scheme of things $500 is not a lot of money, if the salesmen can't do it , he is right at the razor thin margin , there is not a lot of activity on ordering 09's yet and in the ensuing months i believe that gm will not overbuild in 09, this may impact the rebates.

I agree with bwaluk ... if you're gettting 22% ..to.. 25% off msrp .... don't worry about the $500 ... don't let them sneak in the high doc fee or any other weird fees.
 
Go for it ..... let us know the final deal ..... I may do something this weekend

The vehicle I am within $500 is not a Tahoe and I am now at $350 of my price. On the Tahoe I am $2000 over what I feel is a fair price. I can't even get them to invoice before the $6000 rebate. I just don't understand I had to wait 2 days to get contacted, the Tahoe is on the dealers lot and they want to play games. Other vehicle got a response within a couple of hours and they had to locate vehicle.
 
I like the Tahoe and would prefer to buy American, but will buy the vehicle I feel I am getting a good deal on. I may try a different Tahoe dealer today to see if I get a better response, but looks like no Tahoe for me. Also, the dealership I am discussing new Tahoe with is dealership where I get my current Tahoe serviced. You would think they would be more than willing to do business with me.

Shop around. I've found wide variances as to what different dealerships are willing to accept. Dealerships have different cost structures, inventory carrying costs, and different sales target incentives......which lead some to be more motivated than others.

Trying to get to invoice , which means very little left over for the salesmen commissions and of course, the "pack" which is dealer overhead for his expenses , I understand the reluctance of the salesmen to go to invoice. Head of autonation was on cnbc this am talking about the huge rebates on suvs righat now and it is a good time to buy, check a couple of dealers and you will see they are not willing to cut each others throat by selling them for invoice. To me that is a good thing since I buy a new one every 6 months and like to see the residuals stay strong when I retail out of my old one. Sometimes salesmen will not get back to you if they figure they are getting lowballed. I get a lot of calls with people offering ridiculous offers thinking you want to get rid of cars at any cost. My reply usually is , "Great for a down payment , how do you want to finance the rest?
