Got Boost, just happy I got my Tahoe for that price. I know others who have said "okay" to a low balled price on their trade and ended up paying what they owed the bank on their trade, pus the price of a their new car. I include the trade because that is how much less I had to pay for the new Tahoe. I could have paid $5200.00 more in addition to the 44k. All about the savings. Getting more than what your trade is worth in my opinion is a big deal.

True, just depends on the deal and how they run the numbers. They can give you $5,200 more for your trade but also charge you $5,200 more for the new one. That's why it's important to post a breakdown of all the numbers and categories..

Depends on your state and tax benefits. Also depends on value of trade..
