Price negotiated from MSRP

I wish someone would tell me where to go to get that awesome deal haha! Im getting better deals on Ford quotes
 
unless there was a trade involved, and your state has NO sales tax, that is unrealistic.

You would have had to been at 50,000 before taxes, fees, etc. which is 18,500 OFF . . . . . ."not buying it" LOL
Prove me wrong!

I totally appreciate that - and I get that each dealer will be motivated by its own circumstances (how long its been on the lot, etc) That being said, you can eliminate almost all evidence other than the numbers with a cropped image. That would at least establish a base. When I read that someone gets 10K off MSRP by ordering - that is below EP, I would LOVE to see that ... please crop out everything except the deal. IN essence you are showing a purchase order with just numbers.

How did you do on negotiations? Saw you ordered a couple of weeks ago.
 
I bought a 2019 Ram 1500 Rebel. MSRP $55,105. Purchased at $47,900. Qualified for only a few rebates and financed through local credit union at 3.74%.
 
2019 RAM 1500 Laramie Crew Cab 5.7 Box

Monroney 61,256
Purchased at 51,239 OTD (all fees, dest and TTT)
No trade
Big Finish, regional and USAA rebates
0.0% 36 months, 0 down

Options:
5.7L eTorque
Level 2 Equipment Group
Advanced Safety Group
4C Nav 12-inch display
3.92 axle
Leather bucket seats
20-inch paint/polished wheels
275/55R20 OWL tires
Rubber floor mats
Tonneau tri-fold cover w/LED bed lights
Rear wheelhouse liners
Trailer brake control

Competitively bid 13 dealerships in the DC and Baltimore area through email, then phone. 5 wouldn’t give me the time of day and 1 GM told me to politely FO. A few others insisted I only deal in the showroom. 4 eventually gave me an OTD price. The winner was $4k lower on a similar MSRP.

Thanks to everyone who posted in this thread. I used it and the 5th Gen forums extensively. Happy to be a truck owner again!

Im finding some better deals today so far in FL been shopping around hard as this bank check is wearing a hole in my pocket. Before all ive been able to get it like 9k off msrp of a Laramie sport. Today I have one that's offereing 11.5 k off. I trying to work a deal for a an Ivory white one in Ft Walton though it stickers at 59655 Im trying to get them to go to 48k . 5 hour drive but its the color and setup we really want.
 
Sorry for the almost 2 week delay. Here's the sticker and paperwork for my deal here in central NC. I took the 0% 72 month financing so I had no rebates whatsoever. Also, I had no trade which I hope will help folks out since this deal is isolated to only the truck itself. I was eligible for the Affiliate Preferred Pricing through my employer (1% below invoice) so that was a good starting point. If you can't get PP through your employer, join Tread Lightly as others have mentioned.

I asked to see the POC, which my salesman showed on his computer screen but did not give me a print out of it. The figures he showed me (invoice, holdback, etc.) all matched up with what I had hand-calculated prior to arriving at the dealership. (You can calculate the invoice price (FWP) from Costco's auto buying website, as well as Edmunds, I think). Remember to not include the destination fee in the MSRP when calculating holdback. So .03 * MSRP = holdback.

My strategy/goal was to get as close as possible to Preferred Pricing - Holdback - DocFee = goal price. I think I got fairly close. I asked for 62k out the door and the closest they could get was 63.3k. I told them thank you and mentioned I was going to another dealership to test drive another Limited that day (I was being truthful). They texted me two days later and gave me the 62k deal. I think it helped me that it had been raining the past couple days (slow sales during bad weather). Keep the weather in mind ;-)

The most pleasant surprise was the fact that they had me in and out of the dealership within 2.5 hours (and 1 hour of that was me inspecting the truck for issues, thanks to the delivery checklist thread on this forum!). They didn't try to push extended warranties and threw in the dealer add-ons and 6 oil changes and tire rotations (see attached pics).

Overall I think I did pretty well and I was happy with the deal, which at the end of the day that's what counts lol. The discount they show on paper (see attached) would represent 13.6% off of the total MSRP with absolutely no rebates involved. I'll go back and see if I can get the actual FWP (invoice price) and I'll update the post.

Hope this post helps some folks!

Recieved my ordered Limited for 47,300 + TTL mid December.

MSRP 59,915
Dealer -10100
Rebate -1500 (December SE region)
USAA -1000
Took 0% financing for 36mo.

Build details in sig.

I either owe this forum kudos for saving me thousands or owe you all blame for supporting my expense of many more thousands (ha ha hmmm?)

Good luck on the hunt everyone!
 
You must have a cheap tax rate where you are. Tax on that deal in TN would have been a whopping $4200!!!!
