Affiliate pricing...

[Ratket]

who has used it? And how much did it save you off of MSRP?
I am curious if it is worth it. I know you can stack other “incentives “ on top of it.

I did, though I'd never heard of it.
After all the sales stuff was done and we'd agreed on a deal, my salesman realized my wife qualified for it through her job.
He sent me a link so I could apply for it and I used the code FCA sent me.
Saved about $500. ( 1% I think)
Still, I'm glad he pointed it out- he didn't need to after the deal was done and I wouldn't have known the difference.

should have been more than 500, its 1% below invoice so save the markup of the vehicle plus 1%.

I bought a left over 17 ram last year while they did 20% off plus employee discount (3% below invoice) and received $17,500 off the truck

I want to say I got mine for 1% under invoice and I got incentives. I can't say exactly how much I saved because I don't know how much the dealer would have been willing to haggle, but mine was significantly under sticker price. The best part is there was no hassle. I told dealer what I wanted. They show exactly what it was going to cost me.

I've had coworkers tell me that they've had sales people tell them that they could get a better price by not going through affiliate program, but he was dealing with Ford. My guess is they were not throwing in incentives with their plan. I know when I bought my wife's expedition several years ago, I had to ask for the incentives in addition to xplan because they weren't going to give them to me. They were probably hiding incentives from my coworker to make it like like they were significantly cutting their price.

I get supplier pricing and they had no problem adding that on top of current retail deals, but the sales guy gave me employee pricing so with the current 25% off msrp I ended up at 33% off msrp or $14k off (Canadian).

 

[Ratket]

I also get x plan for ford, but they are still to damn expensive, we are tossing around picking up a wrangler, but I know We can get rams 10k back of msrp all day, I just don’t know about jeeps, and I don’t know how much the “affiliate”s 1% below dealer invoice” is off of msrp, I’m kind of hoping it is a lot like 6-8k, cause if that’s the case, I’ll wait for Fiat to roll out the 0%apr for 72 months and strike. If they offered 33% off I would get of this ******* right now and head to the dealership.

If I could have gotten 33% off a Wrangler I would have taken the 2-door Rubicon off their hands that day [emoji23]

Unfortunately with my discount build and price was only showing about three to five k off before retail incentives.

I used it and combined with the other incentives that I qualified for at the time (2014), it came out to 20% off sticker. It made for a pretty hassle free buying experience as I knew exactly what I qualified for and anticipated my pricing going into it.

I get it trhough my wife's employer. It saved me over $10k off MSRP and it was hassle free. There is no haggling. Rules state that the price is what it is, plus rebates. Only thing that can be negotiated is the trade value.

You can also go through Sam's Club and Costco if you are a member. It is pretty similar in pricing as well.

I looked at a brand new 2018 Laramie back in April and they messed up and ran in based o a company I was thinking about going to and they said it was only about a $600 savings on a $63,000 truck. The company I currently work for has no deal with anyone.

My sons company has a deal with Ford but even with that they are still more expensive than the Ram and besides that Fords suck...lol

 

[Ratket]

Rams can be had for 8-10k off all day long...

I’m hoping this statement may ring true for wranglers

 

[dhay13]

My step-son tried 2 different dealers last year for a Wrangler and both said they would not negotiate at all. They said the Wranglers are in such high demand that they can sell them for sticker all day long. He gave up after the 2nd one told him that. My daughter bought a 2016 Sahara Unlimited new that stickered for $42k. I think she got $1000-2000 off on that IIRC

I just logged into the Preferred pricing builder, clicked *new* 2019 Limited, and touched no options. Summary shows this..


Discounts - $17,441(cad) - $13,220(usd)

Bonus Cash (Applied after taxes) - $2,000
Consumer Cash (Applied before taxes) - $8,500
Employee Price Discount - $6,941

A 2019 Classic is around $7200 (cad) - $5460 (usd)

 

[desync0]

The Chrysler advantage builder doesn't apply the $25k cdn discount to classic's, it's better to use the normal retail build and price and the dealer will give you the employee/supplier discount in person on top of that.

 

[dhay13]

So does Dodge have anything like this in the U.S. that my son might be able to get? Back in 2007 I got the Employee Choice discount through a guy we raced with.

The company my son works for gets a discount through Ford but he hates Ford. No idea how much of a discount.

 

[chrisbh17]

When I found my truck, the price they advertised was if you qualified for just the right discounts. I did not, but after some back and forth the price ended up the same because I had a friends and family code.

Not sure the exact % but I contacted a few other farther away dealers with similar trucks and they were all at least $3k more, so I sucked it up and bought it local.

dont even bother comparing,

i got 33% off with no affiliate anything

if i waited 2 more months i could have gotten the same truck - if they still had stock for 35%

someone always gets a better deal then you.

 

[dhay13]

I'm only asking cause my son is looking to buy a new 2500 Cummins.

Before I bought my 2500 last month I looked at a brand new 2018 Laramie 6.4L that stickered at $63k. They had it advertised for $48k. I went and test drove it and they came back and said I didn't qualify for hardly any rebates and the price was $53k. They wouldn't budge from that price and they were offering me the very low end on my trade
