I bought a 2024 4WD RST with sport performance package including the 6.2 in Radiant Red just over two weeks ago. I had been searching local dealer inventory online for quite some time for that exact combination, and when I finally spotted one it was listed a little more than $4K off sticker. I called immediately and negotiated no dealer adds like nitrogen, etc., and they even threw in free tint and splash guards, so I really did pay just sticker minus the discount plus TT&L, which was nice after ready about dealers not budging on adds like $1K tint, nitrogen, tire warranty, and even adding "market adjustment" increases over the past several years.
I had been checking dealer inventory on a weekly basis for over a year and jumped at the opportunity so fast it had just come off the transport truck and I had to wait until the next morning to test drive so they could do the PDI. It only had 5 miles when I test drove it. They offered me a fair enough trade on my 2019 Tahoe, but I probably could've squeezed another $1k or so on my trade if I pushed and did the whole walk away until they called game, but this was literally the only Tahoe in this exact configuration I'd seen available locally in over a year of searching, and the week I found it there wasn't one single other non-High County 6.2L Tahoe available at any of the 5 dealers I'd been keeping an eye on, so didn't want to push my luck. Tahoes that aren't High County but still optioned with the 6.2 seemed relatively rare around here. I know I could've ordered it just how I wanted at some point, but I held out to find one in inventory in part because it's easier to negotiate on something already on the dealer's lot.
