Jun 05, 2007 -- Get Cash Back Deals on Trucks & SUVs
New statistics show that for the first time in almost 6 years, people are buying more cars than light trucks, which include SUVs, minivans, pick-up trucks and vans. Thats been the sweet spot in the car market for years, but now thats shifted: Small cars are selling like mad, and big vehicles are not doing well at all. Cars.com does a list of the top ten cash back offers on the market, and Clark discovered that the discounts top 25% on several models. Number one is the Chevy Silverado, which is giving $4500 cash back (a 28.41% discount from the MSRP.) The Dodge Ram is giving a 28% discount ($6000 back) , the GMC Sierra a 27% discount, the Ford Freestar a 25% discount ($5000), and the list goes on. For those of you who want or need a large vehicle, there are some outrageously good deals out there for you. But the greatest deals are on the used ones - you can steal a deal right now. The flip side is that if you are buying a new SUV (or anything thats not in), youll save a lot on your purchase, but youll get pinched on the trade-in value on your old one. If the vehicle you are trading in has enough years on it, however, the pinch youll suffer is not nearly as much in dollars as the benefit you get in dollars on the new one.
