At least give it a day or two to make sure they don't reconsider. They were very nice, let us take a demo overnight. I hate to get them in trouble. I was ready to buy if they had only taken a little off msrp. I've also watched their web based inventory closely for nearly two months and it looks like they really would rather keep their vehicles?

They won't get in trouble. It's just noted. Every HUMMER dealer is "graded" quarterly on service and sales. Good and bad is noted for each dealer. It goes into a database and looked at quarterly for review. This helps each dealer provide better future sales/service and gives them more information on existing employees.

btw- why are you going into the dealer without a supplier discount certificate? Someone here will have one for you. than there's no negotitation at all... unless you have a trade.
get a GM IN THE DRIVEWAY Cert.

That don't sound quite fair, I don't have any connections to GM. I just want a fair deal where the dealer makes 3k+ (not 6k+) profit.

So, you are willing to give them 3K? that's great! I have some parts I'll sell you at a fair deal too.
$500 over invoice still gets them their hold back and is a common price today as long as it's not a limited eddition.
Either you are dealing with a new salesman or you are dealing with Medved.
you don't need a connection with GM to get the cert.
What state are you in?

Re: I just found the real reason for the layoffs
I'll give you a GM in the driveway (which has been renamed to something like GM friends and family?). Just PM me with your:
LAST 4 numbers of your SSN
Date of birth
Email address where I can forward the certificate number to.
That's it, and you can get supplier discount with no haggling, and if there are any rebates, you get those on top of the supplier discount.

Re: I just found the real reason for the layoffs
I think it's shades of 1984 or 1974. As long as I've been buying cars its been like this and boat dealers are the same. When I took my 6 mo. old H2 in yesterday for immediate emergency engine service It was like who are you did you buy it here who was salesman ,I guess if any answer was tilt I was gonna get the bums rush. I had to produce credit card and sign 6 forms in triplicate. I said what about 4yr bumper to bumper war. and answer was only if YOU didn't screw something up. GUS REVENBERG GMC HUMMER WINDSOR. But truck was back in one day with a lousy wash job. Regards The Rebel

Re: I just found the real reason for the layoffs
Sorry it didn't work out, but I'm tired of driving for hours only to have them act like I should bow down and kiss their feet for the privilege of paying msrp. This is (by far) the worst auto purchase experiences I've had in 30 years.
