Default Help lol! Can't get a deal on new jeep!

Looking to buy a JKU rubicon in So Cal. Dealers are wanting to break it off in my a##!!!

Best I've gotten is is under two grand off a msrp of forty five grand.

So where do I get a deal?

Msrp is $45,610.00 and they want $43,642.00. That's only $1968.00 off msrp.

Total OTD is $47,547.21 w tax & license etc etc.

They are acting like this is a bro deal.

Costco has a car buying program you could try. When I shop, I research things to death. I create a spreadsheet of comparable deals. Then go to the dealer armed with that and make it clear that I am not window shopping. Sometimes it helps when they know you are 100% committed to buying something within days. They want to get your business rather than another dealer.

Just be happy you can get below MSRP. The dealers in Western Canada treat the JK as their kid's college tuition money and mark them up...

Get the invoice sheet
pay invoice or 1-200 over invoice plus rebates
If they don't want to show you the invoice go to another dealer

I just went through the same thing. I sold my 08 jk and just picked up a 17 jku Rubicon. I shopped every dealer here in my area of Ontario and all I managed was 3k off sticker and that was supposedly because I've purchased four new vehicles off them in the past eight years. They say that they don't need to discount jeeps at all.

I was committed. I got there at 8:26pm. They close at 9. They asked when I was thinking of buying and my response was you close in 34 minutes so let's do this.

You can also join treadlightly and they will give you a code you can use similar to an employee discount...or chrysler affiliate rewards...it will get you 1% above invoice of chrysler employee pricing....i think you have to be a member of trreadlightly for 30 or 60 days before they will give you code...did you try victorville motors?

If your not financing, you could find a slightly used base model and spend $20k on lockers, dynatrac, gears, tires, and a winch.
