Another GD Price Increase

[BrokeDown]

Now, it's impossible to get a new or good used truck that is not Covid inflated price wise. But it does suck

If you still want a F450, you can get one at 2% under INVOICE. Most want MSRP or more. The dealer is in Iowa.

My dealer in FL matched his price

I'll likely still buy the RV, but will be happy when the manufacturer takes it up the you know what when it all crashes. I'll be sitting in my financially under water RV laughing my rear end off.

From what I am being told (by multiple dealers), GD is passing the increase on to the dealer for units that are already on order. If I order today for $100,000 and they raise the price twice before my coach is built, let's say to $120,000. I will have to pay the $120,000.

This is what we were told by every dealer except one who was not passing on any increase if we ordered prior to Sept 1st - at that time - they've changed policy now. We ordered 8/31 and the dealer that said our price would not increase. Coach is supposed to be completed by GD Nov 30th. Guess we'll see in next couple of months.

My dealer told me that they changed the rule on June 1st. Orders after that were subject to price increases. I guess a lot depends on how much profit the dealer baked into the deal.

Some dealer were guaranteeing the price but their price was a lot higher than my dealer after the increase.

The ones that got me were $10K non-refundable deposit before they would place an order.

Wow! Just looked up MSRP on the 303RLS. Over 80 grand. We bought back in February for 48k including delivery and any other charges from the dealer. That was 22% below MSRP at the time. Buying today with the same discount, if we could even get it, we’d be paying almost 63k. I wouldn’t buy at that price.

But, a pound of sirloin at Sam’s went from $6.50 to $9.98 in the last month. It’s all nuts.

Mine want $10K non refundable too. The exception is if they raise the price. I can live with that.

Since dealers are reluctant to discount off Msrp, so based on you getting it at 48 February and at now the price being 80 with zero to little discount, you would pay 32000 more, that’s crazy for less than year

It's not accurate to say dealers are offering zero to no discount...having just gone through the purchase process, I can tell you that dealers are still offering discounts off MSRP in very close proximity to what has been the norm, in around that 20% mark...granted you are paying more due to the numerous price increases manufacturers have passed on in the last year. If you are talking to a dealer offering little to no discount, it's time to walk and look for another dealer. Is inventory low...yes...are you going to have to shop more, and possibly go out of state...quite likely. But you don't need to be paying MSRP.

Thanks, That's good to know, but at this point I'm not looking
