Chrysler matching governments 4500 dollar program?

[pOrk]

Chrysler is now offering 4500 Customer Cash on top of the 4500 government rebate program. Will Ford / GM follow suit?

On what rides?

[Prince Valiant]

pretty much any vehicle that gets a combined 22mpg or better, provided your old car gets no better than 18mpg....or if the truck/suv your trading in gets 2mpg worse than the one you're buying.

it's something like that...very convoluted, I don't know.

so they will only take trucks and v8 cars?

all that means is that the rebate is $4500... you'll see the "normal" rebates go away.

its a good marketing ploy if they can work it right. "let's give back the money we'll take from the taxpayers" hahaha

i wonder if it's on ALL vehicles or if it's on just select vehicle(like the trucks and more expensive cars) $4500 rebate on the caliber would make that a dirt cheap car.

When you go to dodge.com and select Dodge Caliber, this is what comes up:

MSRP* Starting at $17,090
Government Voucher up to -$4,500
Customer Cash -$3,500

Your price: $9,090

I don't see it as JUST a marketing ploy, since 3500 off a new vehicle is a better then an employee discount in most cases.

Wish GM did follow, whats an Aveo cost like 12grand.

You also still get the employee discount on top of all that...

One hell of a deal if you ask me. Too bad I'm not a dodge employee, I'd love a charger.

You don't need to be an employee to get the employee discount...its a program they've been running for awhile.

I still wouldn't pay $9K for a Caliber or Aveo. I test drove a Caliber and it's an awful car.
