The Biggest Rebates Available Now
August 23, 2012
This week, I've compiled a list of vehicles that come with rebates of at least $1,000.
This includes both cash-back rebates, as well as "hidden" dealer rebates. The hidden rebates are given directly to dealers by the manufacturer. Dealers are not obligated to pass the rebate to the consumer, and most will not reveal the fact that there's even a hidden rebate available.
The good news is that you can usually get that hidden rebate passed on to you via a lower transaction price if you negotiate aggressively, or use a service like CarWoo
