Who here works at a Car Dealership?

[Firefighter Z]

Just wondering who here works at a car dealership.
I'm in the market for a SUV and I am wondering if can get a BCM discount (Im getting cheap for my old age lol)

I work at Sommers GMC/Buick/Subaru Saturdays.

The blue interior Tahoe is on the lower price side on the lot, with the new Denalis on the opposite side of the spectrum.

Any Ford dealership employees? Looking at a 2012 Fusion. Already have one picked out, but would prefer a different color, but the same options.

Michelle you should wait for the new design '13 fusion. It is sweet looking!

[jbiscuit]

yep 2013 Fusion looks great!

[xxtremeteam]

either 2012 or 2013 but some great deals out there on the 2012

[michelle]

I'm still liking the 2012 look over the 2013. And I can imagine the price will increase on the 2013.

I picked out a 2012 with the monochrome package. Only downside is the 30 on the highway (instead of 33 without that package). And you can't get it in white (preferred color).

Nick should be able to hook you up michelle... he's out of a lincoln but works with the boucher ford dealer too. He hooked up my deal and found me my dd from out of state with no problems.

FYI if you're a svtoa member, you can get xplan pricing too just for being a member but i suspect deals on a 12 fusion are prolly better than xplan right now anyways.

just as an FYI,

x plan pricing is(or atleast was when I was in the business) is HIGHER than invoice pricing.

Most internet submitals for pricing inquiries would result in a BETTER price than x-plan pricing.

again, this was a number of years ago. Hell, even K-mart employees get x-plan pricing

Yeah, but it depends if you can get them to give you invoice on the car you're trying to buy. :) Sometimes xplan is your best shot. On a 12 fusion, its almost guaranteed you'll get less than xplan anyway.

For me because the car was very specific and not on the lot, invoice wasn't happening unless i found a dealer with the actual car i wanted (which there were only 4-5 of them within 300 miles). xplan was within a few hundred of invoice in my case anyway and I was able to work the deal local, and I feel i got more on my trade than I would've out of state. Worth it to me. Every case is different obviously.

I always found your insights very helpful tho, crawlin. The mere fact other dealer guys got mad at you for divulging certain things in the past is telling ;)
