Rubicon Price Negotiation
I ordered my Rubicon back in February; it has arrived. I'm very anxious.
I go in tomorrow to settle on price. The msrp on mine is 28,600. I am in a relatively low volume area (deep south Texas), and I anticipate an exhausting haggle session or two. What is the best you think I can do? |
Re: Rubicon Price Negotiation
You mean you didnt settle on a price before ordering??
I would be prepared to walk away from the deal, at least temporarily, since they deffinitly have you by the short ones and they know it.

Re: Rubicon Price Negotiation
I got mine for 2% under invoice. But that's because I'm a graduating
student this year. You can get them around invoice for sure though. Course, you already paid $500 for the order... didn't you? That may take away some of your bargaining ability. -Muuurgh "Jeffrey Wright" <jkwright@swbell.net> wrote in message news:x5xnc.7042$zR6.4673@newssvr24.news.prodigy.co m... > I ordered my Rubicon back in February; it has arrived.

Re: Rubicon Price Negotiation
Like others have said, I can't imagine ordering prior to settling on a
price. But that being said, I pretty much consider invoice up to invoice+$500 to be fair.

Re: Rubicon Price Negotiation
According to the dealer, we could make no progress on the finance side of a
deal until we had a VIN number and we wouldn't get that until the thing was basically on the truck to south Texas, so we might as well wait until it got here . . . Sounded like a canard to me, but they call the shots, more or less, don't they. They have been treating me well, I'll give them that, never asked me to put a cent down. So am I a VIP or am I off to slaughter tomorrow?

Re: Rubicon Price Negotiation
Sure, perhaps financing couldn't progress, but financing and price
*should* be two different things. That's a typical dealer ploy IMO... they tie financing into the price. I *always* have my financing set before walking into a dealership these days... been bit by that before. If the dealership can get me a better rate on my loan, then so be it, and I go their route. But that shouldn't have anything to do with the actual purchase price of the vehicle. Be careful of these guys IMO.

Re: Rubicon Price Negotiation
The loan rate is a big issue as well. Because of the internet and the
ability to order from any dealership nationwide you should still be able to get rock bottom prices--if you can haggle. This is what I got: $2000 cash back + 2.99 % financing, 2% under invoice and lifetime $10 oil changes (I may not use the oil change deal, but it was a nice throw in). Haggle, haggle, haggle. The dealer will dislike you for it, but they want to sell you YOUR Jeep. Price and print a quote from www.jeepwarehouse.com That's a great place to start--they have really good prices and a good history (you can always threaten to order your Jeep from Bill. Go to your dealer and tell them that you are a member of a credit union and you can get 2.99 % financing (or go to your bank first and see what the best deal they can give you is), make sure you haggle with a couple other dealerships before you go to finalize your deal at the dealership you wish to buy a Jeep from, in fact until you get these prices, or a ball park figure near them, walk out. They should do everything they can in order to make you happy. -Muuurgh "David C.
