Bought a 2004 Suburban LT by jakkals

Last Saturday we picked up a new 2004 Suburban LT with Stabilitrack, rear airbags, convenience package, XM radio, DVD, 17 inch weels, etc for:
 
$48,160 sticker
($7,000) dealer discount
(5,000) GM rebates
(1,000) GMAC financing rebate
(1,000) 2 x $500 GM certificates applied by dealer
(2,280) credit earned on our GM card
$31,880 price before TTL
 
Very painless deal - I was quoted the price over the phone and the car was waiting for us when we got there. Only surpise was that we still had to pay sales tax on the credit card earnings and some of the rebates. Could be a California issue.
 
Happy as a clam so far and my wife is happy that she finaly has a radio with reception where we live!!

Thanks jakkals for your info.
I am not seeing $7k discounts here in Minnesota but then our gas isn't quite as high in price here. Best I am seeing so far is $10,700 off retail with discount and rebate. I'll try a little harder this weekend.

04 SUBURBAN DEMO by suburbman

I NEED A NEUTRAL OPINION. LOOKING AT AN 04 SUB DEMO WITH 10K MILES. LT PREF EQUIP PKG, 2ND ROW BUCKETS REAR SEAT ENTERTAINMENT, LIFT GATE GLAS AND SAFE AND SECURE PKG ADD UP TO $47, 705 (INCLUDES $1000 PREF EQUIP SAVINGS). DEALER HAS OFFERED A "TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT" PRICE OF $38,800. tHIS DOES NOT INCLUDE A POSSIBLE $5000 REBATE BECAUSE IT IS FOR MY MOTHER IN LAW AND SHE WILL LIKELY FINANCE IT AT 0% FOR 4 OR 5 YRS. WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS???

I'd also think long and hard about taking the 0% financing over the $5,000. When I did the math for myself a week or so ago the $5000 was worth a lot more than the present value savings of the 6 year 0%. Something like a $2000 gap. Just calculate the payment numbers on $33,800 with the best interest rate you can find for your mom and compare it to the payments for the $38,800 at 0%. I think you'll be surprised.

First, you undoubtedly don't mean to be rude, but you need to know that all caps is considered shouting online. Plus it is simply a lot harder to read, discouraging those whom you hope will answer.
 
I've not studied the numbers lately, but I can tell you to be really sure about the possible $5,000 rebate not being included. Dealers are really savvy and, unless they specifically stated (and maybe even if they did! -- some are very low indeed) that the $5,000 rebate was not included in their figures and that it could still be taken off, then they have almost certainly taken it off of any "take it or leave it" price they have offered.

Sorry about the caps. We were very clear and in writing got the quote without the $5000 rebate. So you think it's a good deal? Now should I wait for the Red Tag information???

car_man seems to get a lot of valid scoop, so I'd be inclined to trust him on this one - just make sure you check the topic linked above for updates, as I'm sure he'll post as soon as he gets any add'l info.

I just got a phone message from a dealer today telling me that they are adding a $1500 dollar rebate to all 04 and 05 GM vehicles if you finance with GMAC. Not sure if that is related to this red tag sales event or not.
Given that I am now pursuing a Chrysler T&C, I did not call back to verify the specifics.

It sure sounds like you should hang on for the "sale" just to see, if you can wait. Probably the worst that might happen is the deal will get sweeter as the dealer looks at the looming year end and the remaining inventory....

I have a wife, two young boys and a dog. We are very active bunch. We currently have a VW Passat 4-motion wagon but need more space. We stayed away from SUV's in the past but think we may make the move. We see a lot of Chevy Suburbans/Tahoe out there. Not sure which way to go.
 
Any feedback would be appreciated.
