    Getting close to buying a 2019 Limited CM, wanting to know if i'm paying way too much or if i'm in the right range. i'm being told this truck has a $4,500 discount this month. No idea if that's true or not:

    2019 Limited Premium CM - 4x4 - White exterior - Tan interior (i wanted the tan..)

    - does NOT have spray-in bed liner (how much is Line-x??)

    the Limited Premium Package has the BSM, rear cross traffic and front/rear sonar...and a few other little things..

    Base Price - $45,500 (after the "discount")

    OTD = $48,750 (drive away price - includes all fees)

    ..and i'm a cash buyer. what you think??

    What is MSRP on the truck? Does your OTD price include taxes? If so, give us the price without taxes. Cash buyers really don't get any deals nowadays, dealers like to make money on finance charges, interest etc.

    Line X will run you from $500 to $900 depending on area and options maybe more.

    MSRP = $50,292. Yes - OTD includes tax and all fees.

    They're telling me they have a $4,500 discount so i guess price without taxes would be $45,792. but, it's hard to tell the way these Dealers talk and do things

    @Fishman57 good question - No, not to my knowledge. The $4,500 was presented as "their discount offer" but not too much more explanation from them

    I would think a rebate would be spelled out in the deal. I would not trust them to offer it. Ask them. And tell/ask them to throw in the Line X to seal the deal.

    Truck gets Line-X for $48,000 OUT THE DOOR ON THE ROAD ALL FEES AND TAXES INCLUDED.... or you'll buy elsewhere. You're the BOSS! Tell them what 'they' have to do, to sell you that truck.:D In this Computer-Age, you should know what the Invoice Price is of the truck and the Features/Packages before EVER walking into the Dealership. MSRP Price should mean nothing to you; that's for people who don't pay attention.....like the typical GM buyer.

    The "Invoice" we see when we search on sites like CarsDirect and Edmunds are as close as we're going to get. Remember, all Auto Dealers have at least a 3% 'Holdback' from the Auto Builder. There's normally $1500- 3000+ that goes to the Dealer at time of sale, so there's profit built-in....they do have bills to pay! The more you educate yourself, the better off you'll be in the Vehicle Buying Zoo. Sometimes you gotta' kick-in $500 over invoice, if the vehicle is a hot seller. You can see all the "Fees" they invent and the Taxes you have to pay, so coming up with 'your price' is worth the effort!

    keep on shopping because there is always someone else out there ready to meet your terms. personally I'd wait till later in the month and lets see who is hungry and who isn't.

    You should fairly easily be able to get a $4-5k dealer discount, or more if you're willing to battle, plus any available rebates.

    Yep, I used to hear the same thing, they'd say "The Nut's Cracked" toward the end of every month. Salesreps would got 'cut-loose' to make better deals, after "The House" has it's money.

    Check with Costco.

    Their deal is whatever $$$ under invoice they negotiated with the dealer, plus applicable rebates on top of the negotiated price, plus 15% off any accessories, plus the right to exclude dealer add-ons such as paint protection and crap like that.

    We'll you're in the right range. Paying too much is a matter of your own opinion. There will always be better deals out there and it depends how good you are at negotiating and how much time and effort you want to put in. Seems everyone is worried they might "pay too much". Just negotiate the dealer's offer and see where you end up.

    I got mine at the end of September. Not only was neat the end of the month but it was also at the end of the quarter. Dealers get real flexible at times like this.
    Don’t be afraid to walk away. If they don’t give you the deal that you want, another dealer will.
    And make sure that they itemize every discount, rebate, fee, etc. that got them to the end price in writing and get a copy, even if it’s only a phone picture of the paperwork.

    One of the Dealers i'm working with is offering to add the Limited Premium sensors to the truck for $300. Is this a good price? Is this both safe and effective for them to add at the Dealer level?

    Reason I ask, I want the Limited Trim but I notice some of the trucks have "Limited Premium Package" which includes: Includes Front and Rear Parking Assist Sonar, Blind Spot Monitor, and Rear Cross Traffic Alert. It has a few other things but these are the safety items.

    Anyway, Dealer is saying I can buy the regular Limited Trim pkg and they'll add these sensors to the truck for $300.

    Does that sound right? I'm not sure what involved with them adding this stuff but seems like a like lot for them add for it to work properly without coming from the factory

    Man, I wouldn't want any of that sensor stuff but if you really want a line-X'ed bed, I can point you to the guy who sprayed my grill and bumper caps. He goes to dealerships and does their beds too.
