Edmunds TMV numbers are ALL WET. At least $1,200 TOO HIGH. This no haggle pricing format has NOT been recalculated by Edmunds. Take 77% of sticker and that's your price for a new GMC Sierra.

Hi jerrymcshane1,
The TMV numbers are not updated daily, and are based on actual sales data that we receive from dealerships. The data set may not have been updated since GM implemented their program. Additionally, TMV represents the average price paid for a vehicle in a particular area, and certainly doesn't represent the best possible deal you can get.

#18 of 46 Sierra 1500 WT for $6499 by smokindeal

Jul 22, 2005 (10:56 pm)

Regular cab, Red, short bed, 4.3 liter V6, manual trans, W/T, A/C delete (bummer)
 
MSRP $18170
GM Employee Discount Price $13135
Sale price $11999 (ad vehicle price which was less than GMS price)
Factory rebate $-3000
GM Card Rebate $-2500
Final price $6499
 
with TTL, I paid $7705.16 out the door. I had to pay tax on the rebates
 
For a full size GMC Sierra truck with a sticker of over $18k, I payed 35.8% of sticker. Beat that... I'll live without A/C for that price.

Just curious how you get $6499.
I think the GM Employee Discount Price $13135 has already included the Factory rebate.
Isn't your price $9499? Hard to imagine it can come to $6499.
Have you got the factory rebate back?
If just $7705.16 out door, really admire you!
Where did you buy it?

The rebate was applied after the GM Employee Discount. Some dealers were quoting the rebate as part of the Employee Discount, basically pocketing the rebate. The deal was from Simpson GMC in Buena Park, California. They occasionally advertise a "Half Price Sale" on this truck at $8999 (sale price of $11999 - $3000 rebate = $8999). I just applied the max allowable GM Card points (-$2500) to this advertised deal and got the $6499 (plus tax, title, etc).
 
The only hard part was to get up extra early so I was the first one in line to buy the ad vehicle.

Thanks! I am in Southern CA too.
The dealer is not so far away from my home.
Will try to earn some GM points since now.
Have fun with your super deal!
I may try it next year.

I notice the discounts are extended another month..........
as if the discounts weren't there before....
 
BUT:
 
Can someone give a definitive answer on this.....
GMC.COM shows employee price on a Sierra XCAB V8 Shortbed
to be approximately 22K from list of 29K.......I've read that the
rebates are in addition to that.....making it 19 grand.....
 
but all the ad's i've seen on similar trucks have been in the 22 range......
 
Is the 3000 rolled in "EVEN" on GMC's site????
 
I'm looking at a stepside SLE with list of 30900 and some change
and dealer has it for 23100.....but doesn't say whether
rebate is already included.......
 
Thanks
 
Eric

Are you still happy with the truck? I am considering buying the same one. What colors were available? Does the truck come with a passenger side mirror or bumper? I am interested in knowing how "stripped" it is - GMC's site does not show photos of the WT model. What time did you need to be there to buy it?
Thank you, Jim
