GM relapses yet again.... Here come the discounts!
Re: GM relapses yet again.... Here come the discounts!
Guys, I wouldn't freak out just yet...it said $500-1,500 for cars ON LOTS OVER 125 DAYS...
Not every model...
Not even a lot of cars...
Not $4k off...
Has anyone checked Chevy's website lately? $0 on Aveo. $0 on Cobalt. $750 on Malibu. $0 on Impala. $0 on MC.
Or Pontiac? $0 on Vibe. $500 on G6. $0 on Grand Prix. $0 or $500 on Torrent. $0 on GTO.
When was the last time you saw THAT????

Although I think new car prices are absurd to begin with when they cost 1/3 the price of a house

Welcome to the Midwest man.
I had my house built BRAND NEW for $130,000. It sits on 1/4 Acre in a Subdivision. 2,336 sq ft, 4bdrm, two story house. 1/2 Level brick. Nice appliances. It's not a super upscale neighborhood, or house for that matter. Mostly Middle Class.
Of coarse people make less out here as well. Median Income in our town is about $35k. I make about double that, but I like small towns, and with double the median income, I can live quite well. Never been a person for High Class Neighborhoods, I'm too down to earth and wouldn't like the people on either side of me, hehe...
Oh, and not to steer the thread: I think that this isn't all that bad. They'd be STUPID NEVER to have a sale again. Just doin't make them so crazy and that appears to be what they have done. I'm not concerned and maybe I can save a few bucks on something?

Good for me.

Just out of curiosity... how many people who don't like the rebates have said "oh, no thanks" when they go buy a new vehicle?
I'm gonna guess none.

Gonna be a tough choice if I end up with an Av.
FWIW... there are very nice deals to be had on 06 Av's right now... I had a very nice lease worked out when I turned in my GTO...... well........ that was before I got my wife the Envoy instead, and took her GTP since she never liked it much.

That combined with mileage is are my greatest debates right now on if I buy an 07 or 06... it's a toughy, especially when I put on over a thousand miles a week! thsoe two items play a huge roll!

They probably didn't want to roll back the GMT-800's MSRP for so they COULD continue drop these giant rebate numbers on them to clear them out easier since the GMT-900's are either here or right around the corner, depending on the model...

I don't drive as much as you per week, but, it is still a concern.
That is about the only good thing I can think of from giving the new car to the wife.
I can see if the Envoy can handle all of our hauling needs... if so, I may look toward something else... unless I just flat out really, really, really like the Avalanche that much more than anything else out there.

Re: GM relapses yet again.... Here come the discounts!
Somebody on the GTO board said they found new 05 auto GTOs for $26300 in Ohio and just a few hundred bux more in PA. I'm on it. My 04 lease is up in a couple months and I just cant see paying $5000 more for an 06.
