Hey multiplechoice. Here's the info that you're looking for. GMAC's current base lease rate and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 Crew Cab SLE 2WD with 15,000 miles per year are 7.75% and 70%, respectively. the numbers for an otherwise identical 36 month lease are 7.75% and 61%.

Car_man,
I greatly appreciate your info.
I'm looking at purchasing or leasing a new 07 Sierra. It seems we'll be seeing big discounts on cars again soon ie. 10k off sticker prices on Ford and GM pickups and more than 10k off full sized SUV's. Is it possible to negotiate 10k off sticker on a Sierra and then negotiate a lease? The lease would be very small because the depreciation would be negotiated out of the deal.
Do you have experience with this?
 
The recent rate cut by the US FED will boost retail sales in the near term but the end of this year will see economic consolidation and car manuafacturers will feel the pinch again.

ny smartbuy sales tax problem by caddyman9160

Hello car_man,
I am getting 2 different opinions regarding the impending purchase of a new 2007 sierra 1500 crewcab. I want to take advantage of the 0% , 60 months financing. Using the pull ahead option for my 04 escalade w/ 68K miles, one dealer said i am entitled to sales tax savings using a book value for my 04 escalade , the other dealer said I am not entitled to any sales tax credit when i pull ahead, only when i trade in. Neither dealer want my vehicle as a trade in. I am currently in a smart buy, 3 months left, 16K miles over. I live in Central NY, unable to get ANY advice from GM, or GMAC. Can you advise or point me in the right direction?
 
Thank You,
Craig caddyman9160

Here you go, ltrejo. GMAC's current base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of any 2008 GMC Sierra Crew Cab with 15,000 miles per year are 7.75% and 61%, respectively. When negotiating your lease on this truck, make sure to take advantage of the $1,000 lease cash that is available on it.

To purchase or not? by babacuz
Dec 28, 2007 (7:05 pm)

hello,
 
I am at a crossroads with my 2003 2500 HD Duramax 4x4 Sierra truck.
 
I am at the end of my lease in three months and I am debating whether or not to purchase the vehicle at the end of the lease term.
Wells Fargo said that they will sell it to me for $17,204.95 plus tax they say I am pre approved, no money down and no pre-pay penalties, it is at a rate of %11.36 .
 
I am leery of buying it if the offer is not good, because the truck has ongoing injector issues (fixed under warantee twice but can be very expensive), but I also have a limit on my lease to my mileage of 75,000 total and I have gone seriously over (total miles 137,000 and change) and I know I cannot just get out of the lease without getting fleeced at 17 cents per mile.
 
So my question is should I purchase with the rate offered and will the miles matter? Or should I take the next three months and find someone to buy it for a good deal and get out scott free?
And will most dealers rip me off on a trade- siince I was told I have positive equity since the truck is worth about 21,000 on Kelly blue book.
 
Thanks for your help!!

Greetings babacuz. I personally would never purchase a truck that has been having problems at the end of a lease. One of the great things about leasing is that one can walk away from a problem vehicle without having to pay a dime. Having said this, you are in a pickle with your excess mileage. It would be almost unbearable to have pay a $0.17 per mile penalty on 62,000 excess miles . So you may be stuck buying your truck.
 
Perhaps your best option is to purchase your vehicle at lease-end and trade it in or sell it privately. If you can find someone who is willing to pay more than $17,000 for a 2003 Sierra that has over 130,000 miles on it you could get out of your truck essentially for free, which would be ideal. You may have trouble finding any takers at that price, but your loss would almost certainly be less than what your excess mileage penalty will be.

I was wondering if anyone could tell me the current lease rates on a Sierra 1500 4x4 with the 5.3L V8. this would be 12k miles, in the upstate NY area. As far as options, if it changes anything I am looking for a typically equipped regular or extended cab, not crew.
 
Thanks for the help,
-Tyler

Welcome Tyler. Here's the information that you're looking for. GMAC's current base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of any 2008 GMC Sierra 1500 Crew Cab with 12,000 miles per year would be 7.75% and 64%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of a 2008 Sierra 1500 Extended Cab are 4.75% and 60%. The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of a 2008 Sierra 1500 Regular Cab are 8.2% and 49%. When negotiating your lease on this truck, make sure to take the $1,000 bonus cash that is currently available on it into account.
