So I had some time this past weekend and decided to stop by a few dealers for some price quotes.
1st stop, Airport Chevy in Orlando. They have a 21 Tahoe with MSRP of about $60k. Making small talk with the salesperson, I told him I was really looking for a 20 Tahoe but would entertain a 21 if could get a deal on it. I asked him what he's seen the 21's lease for , his reply was $1500 per month and stressed there were absolutely no discounts on these!?!?! I immediately realized he was full of shit. Anyways i proceeded, he said i could get a quote in less than 10 minutes so I obliged. I mentioned Supplier discount and loyalty. His Manager came back and says there is no loyalty discount. She looked everywhere and couldn't find it. I showed her the email I got from Chevy and she says she will be back. A few minutes later they both come back with the quote. She somehow found the $2k loyalty discount and also applied $1k supplier discount. Quote for 36/10 w/$2k drive off was $840. I almost threw up in my mouth. Sales mgr left, sales person tell me they have had 5 so far in his dealer ship and he sold 4 and though this was a good deal. I said thank you but no thank you.
As Im walking out, I tell the Mgr thanks as well and that Id rather wait as I dont have to turn my 17 Tahoe in until Oct. Her GM stops by and starts reviewing the deal as well. I mentioned to them it seems as though the 21 Yukon have better incentives as I had also gotten a quote for a similarly equipped Yukon for $750 per month with $2k drive offs. The GM plays around with it and says i can do $750 with $2k drive off on this Tahoe. He mentions they've gotten 3 thus far and hes looking to move as many cars as he can. I say thanks but no thanks.
2nd stop - Carl Black in Orlando--not as eventful. They quoted me $900 for 39/10 with MSRP of $58k. They did include $2k loyalty and $2k Supplier discount.
My search continues.....
