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.
