Now a Great Time to Buy a Full-Size Pickup
GM has an all-new platform slated for release by late spring next year and can't afford to have a bunch of leftover models sitting on dealer lots. They are now running their truck month promotion for two months. Usually, truck month is during October, but this year they started after Labor Day. As part of truck month, GM is offering stair-step incentives on the GMC Sierra and Chevrolet Silverado. Dealers who surpass their sales target by up to 10% earn $100 per truck sold. If they beat their targets by 10 to 20 percent, they get $750 per truck, all retroactive. This is what really creates the deals. Those who sell 20 to 50% more than their target get $1,500 on each truck sold.
But GM isn't the only manufacturer offering great deals on pickups. The competition isn't going to let them take away market share that easily. I've compiled a list of the largest incentives being offered from the competition (some of these incentives only apply to certain trim levels). Please note: incentives vary by region, so don't assume your local dealer will be offering these exact rebates. You need to contact them to see what the local offers are (most won't reveal dealer cash though). I recommend you use the to contact dealers and get the best deals.
Truck | Rebates | Trade-in Cash | Dealer Cash | Bonus | Total Incentives |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
2012 Chevrolet Silverado | $3,500 | $1,000 | $1,500 | $6,000 | |
2012 GMC Sierra | $3,500 | $1,000 | $1,500 | $6,000 | |
2012 Ford F-Series | $3,000 | $1,000 | $4,000 | ||
2012 Ram Trucks | $4,000 | $1,000 | $5,000 | ||
2012 Toyota Tundra | $3,500 | $3,000 | $1,000 | $7,500 |
