#29 of 46 great deals on 2006's by ocmike3

Nov 17, 2006 (8:23 pm)

AS they close out the 2006 there have been some pretty heavy rebates. Just picked up a 2006 2WD Reg Cab 1SA w/4.8l V8 & Auto tranny. I had a spray in bedliner added and after all was said and done I paid ~$14000 w/license & title, (MSRP was $22890 w/del fee) I used some GM bucks on top of the rebates after I was quoted just over invoice price. Happy Happy Happy

#30 of 46 Searching for the best deal by padres

Jun 30, 2007 (10:49 am)

This is the first time I've posted on this site and hopefully I've found the site I'm looking for.
 
I need some advice. I'm looking to buy a new GMC 2500HD SLT 4WD crew cab long box diesel and will probably buy it after September 1st. I live in S/W Arizona and we have one GMC dealer here and they pretty much have the "take it or leave it" attitude as do all the other dealers in town. I'm willing to travel to just about anywhere to save the right amount of money. Aside from contacting a selected dealership in each state and trying to get the best internet price, does anyone have a better suggestion? I know the best deals can be made by buying a truck that's already on a dealer's lot and if the dealer has to go a long distance for a dealer trade, it may not be worth my effort. It's been a long time since I bought a new vehicle and internet pricing wasn't around at that time. Any adice would be appreciated.

Email 20 or so dealers last week of the month. Inform them of your needed options, color choices and requirements, and the fact you are contacting 20 dealers and will buy before end of month. Go thru GMC/Chevy website and get their bids. After round 1 or so give the best your cell # Work the top 3 bids preferably directly with the sales manager.
 
It would probably be easier to do this with Chevy Silverado 2500 as you already have a limited # of dealers where you are and GMC has about 1/4 as many dealers as Chevy. A msrp range of the one your want i.e. 33-34000 may be useful also as its inevitable that stock will have extra items you don't want.
 
In the stix you may have to put in zip codes of different cities nearby and look up inventory and dealer websites within 50-100 mi of them. (google zip code, city)
 
You are shooting for $7000- $8000 off a 33000 machine. I would believe the Diesels are similar to the gas models which I base this on.
 
See what happens with the 20-30 dealers. Not much effort and no traveling. If you beat your local guy over the head
with your best bid, he may match it or come close end of month to make a sale. Tell him you would like to work with the local dealership and will give him the highest marks on any customer surveys if you can make a deal.
 
Good Luck

#32 of 46 true invoice cost by fueledup

Sep 16, 2007 (9:34 am)

i was at achevy dealership earlier today and truck had an msrp of $44,084.00, a (DIP) price $40,663.55, and a (GMS) price $38,479.00. The salesman was doing a locate, and handed me this paper by mistake. What are the (dip) and (gms) prices? Should I expect to be able to purchase the vehicle at the (gms) price minus any rebates (currently $3,500.00) or what should I expect to pay. Any expert knowledge of this would be appreciated.

I'm not sure what DIP is, but GMS is the GM employee price..

Is anyone familiar with the Hard Days Work Tour where GM supposedly has $250 off coupons. Is it coming to Florida?

#37 of 46 What price can I expect? Help Me PLZ by bucktim1

Oct 18, 2007 (1:36 pm)

Looking at buying a GMC Sierra 1500 with 5.3L V8 4WD Crew Cab (1st truck) looking at one of the better option packages, probally a SLT version with basic towing package and offroad package. MSRP w/options ~36k-38k. I have a trade in(05 neon srt4) but kbb says 13.5k for it and thats what I still owe. Would have to do 72month finance. I also have the abilty to use GMC supplier discount. But should I try to get below that discount and only mention the discount if I cant get a better price? They also have #3500 off right now. The stock on 07's seems to be small and very few of the color I want(deep blue), They have lots of silver. Another big question is what is the difference between classic and non-classic how do I tell which is which, half the time I dont know what I am looking at?
 
Lots of q's any help would be great.

Check out the chevy silverado prices paid message board. They're basically the same thing.
