Find GMC Dealers in New Albany, Indiana

Thanks Car_Man In NJ, it appears that dealer's are offering competitive financing from GM Financial (formerly AmeriCredit and now GM's new captive fin co) in a battle to compete with Ally (formerly GMAC)... In January, GM Financial's: -implied rate (was given money factor) was lower (3.14% vs 4.25%) -residual was higher (46% vs 43%) -cash back was lower ($500 vs $2,000) -bank acq fee waived for certain states ($0 vs $695) -deposit waived for certain states -gap waiver was not included on back of the lease contract (as was with Ally/GMAC in the past)..have to purchase separately ($6XX vs. $0) All in all it worked out to be about $15 less per month to lease with GM Financial....this is even after purchasing the gap waiver from dealer....my ins co (state farm) does not sell it unless financing thru it's captive bank I'm sure numbers may have changed now that February is here, but wanted to give folks some insight as to what to expect when working the the dealerships.....also Ally now has a pull-ahead program for current lessees GM Financial is such a new entity, that my insurance co didn't even have them in their system and was unaware of their existence....

"The MDX sounds like good deal and a lot more of a quality vehicle" On what basis are you making such a statement? The MSRP on an MDX is roughly $7k higher (including rebates) and actual transaction costs probably widen that margin. I've seen posts here claiming Acadia purchases at $300 over invoice--find me an Acura dealer who will match that price on an MDX ANYWHERE IN THE US and I'll buy it today. As to "quality", again you're assuming facts not in evidence. Both vehicles are new models. As such, they have no history of quality. Although they may share some parts with old models and their respective manufacturers have differing quality history, that doesn't necessarily translate to the durability of either of these new vehicles. You probably know that the old Acura MDX's recall history isn't spotless--bad transmissions plagued several model years. I happen to be a big fan of the MDX and most recenlty owned a 2005 model. But that doesn't mean I'll blindly assume that the new MDX is of higher quality than the new Acadia--especially relative to purchase price. That said: the lease deal quoted is insane. One could easily buy the car for less than that.

I did not trade a car in on the new trailblazer. I have a '95 blazer that has been a real good car for me. The Trailblazer is for my wife. Now, I inherit her Blazer. I also have a '89 Mercury Cougar that I bought new 13 years ago. I use that for my work commute. I found that the lots are loaded with used cars, thus, they will not offer much on trade-ins. The dealer told me that the supplier discount is the cheapest way to go. The new rebates are better now. I believe it is $2500. I found that the rebates seemed to change around the beginning of the month. Check on the Edmunds Rebate page. This website has been very helpful. Also, check the Townhall and read up on what all the triplet owners think of their new vehicles. Good luck.

DOING SOME RESEARCH ON THE TRAILBLAZER FOR MY SISTER.IT'S INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT OTHER'S THINK. ONE THING TO KEEP IN MIND IS TRADE-IN VALUE IS BASED ON MSRP. IF YOU BOUGHT A $32000 VEHICLE FOR $30000 YOU GOT A $2000 DISCOUNT. $4500 PLUS $2000 IS $6500.$6500 IS YOUR TRADE IN VALUE. $4500 IS "ACTUAL CASH VALUE".OR WHAT A DEALER WOULD PAY YOU CASH FOR YOUR VEHICLE IF YOU SOLD IT AND DIDN'T TRADE IT.ACTUAL CASH VALUE IS GENERALLY AVG TRADE IN VALUE LESS MILEAGE,DAMAGE,WEAR.THINGS SUCH AS COLOR,OPTIONS,AND MARKET TRENDS ALSO HAVE AN IMPACT.IT'S VERY TRUE THAT RIGHT NOW THERE ARE MILLIONS OF USED SUV'S IN THE MARKET.THE LAWS OF SUPPLY AND DEMAND STILL APPLY TO TRADE IN'S.YOU ARE MUCH BETTER OFF IF DECIDE TO TRY AND SELL YOUR VEHICLE YOURSELF AS SOON AS YOU DECIDED TO PURCHASE A NEW VEHICLE.THE DEALER COULD CARE LESS IF YOU HAVE A TRADE OR NOT,UNLESS IT IS A DESIRABLE CAR.(SURPRISINGLY 7-12YR OLD CARS WITH LOW,LOW MILEAGE WITH A RETAIL VALUE UNDER $5000 ARE USUALLY A HOT ITEM BECAUSE THEY MOVE VERY FAST AND ARE UNIQUE.
