Costco member? I heard that may qualify ?‍

Search for Costco in the affiliate Rewards website and you will find that's not true.

I contacted my dealership they said they can only give me 0.5% because I already have 6% under invoice! ?
I know it is bs but I’ll take 0.5% more.
Ordered 12/21/21 so I believe I have time to join and receive everything before delivery!

Let me guess…Is that Koons!!

I asked my sales rep about the 1% and he had never heard it. The "Find a dealer" tab on the Affiliates website shows they have accepted it. At what point do you tell the owner you'ld rather not deal with this sales rep. I have yet to ask a question that he didn't have to ask the owner first. I've got a bad feeling of how this is going to turn out. I have the 2dr S on order 11/24/21 #123335.

All of the 3 local dealers I tried to deal with gave the same line denying any knowledge of it even tho the Affiliates website shows they have used it. Just not very many. So possibly the sales people I spoke with did not know about the program, doubtful, but possible I suppose.

i have found that some of the sales "associates" struggle even to know what a wrangler is and are effectively there it input data on the build (build my jeep on website we use) and are effectively a face, to run back and forward to a Sales Manager (have had to stand over their shoulder and tell them what to input - they having no real understanding of the trims )

Either/Or - I have been told that the individual dealership are not obliged to accept the affiliate discount - only if they choose to

You are correct, but if the dealership chooses not to participate, that's OK, but just tell me that.

Out of all the local salespeople I have dealt with, there are 2 that I would classify as professionals in the sense that they are very knowledgeable on their products and I feel I can be honest with in the vein that I can remind them upfront I'm a no bullshit buyer.

They freely discuss invoice prices, holdback, floor assistance, advertising kickbacks, special "secret" incentive programs, etc.

In fact on my wife's SUV we bought last year, the 3rd we've bought from the same fella, I told my guy right up front "You know I'm not buying *anything* in the F&I office and you know I'm paying cash (these are 2 things the buyer is *never* suppose to admit up front) but you also know I know what a fair deal is and that as a business owner myself, I understand a profit has to made for you to be in business and be here when I need you in the future. I just don't want it all made off me."

As weird as it sounds, I think they actually respect me for being honest.

That said, after we negotiated a fair deal on this last SUV, the salesman says "Listen, we get a shitload kickback if you finance through us. So if I knock another $1,750 off the price will you finance through us?"

What's the minimum I can finance so you still get your kickback. He told me and I said, let's run numbers. We did. I ask how long before you are OK with me paying it off? He said 90 days.

OK, so I can pay $450 in interest, then pay it off to save $1,300. We did and was a win-win.

My wife’s company is on the affiliate list, what do we need to do to ensure we get the pricing? Thanks!

you need to be sure intially the dealer you are dealing with, is accepting affiliate pricing

her employers should be able to supply their affiliate account code, and you use this to regsiter with FCA, and once inside their system you can raise 2 control numbers per year

Long story short - go to Mark Dodge @ Lake Charles

Long time lurker first time poster. This is just the beginning and more incentives to come. Stellantis posted wrangler sales numbers for 2021 yesterday and they remained flat. It’s not where stellantis want to be because 2021 should have been the best year for wrangler given all this craziness about being outdoorsy during the pandemic. Chip shortage does not come to play because stellantis sacrificed other models to build wranglers ( renegade is down 50%, add here chargers and challengers).

Good news? Wrangler sales will never top 200k units ever again and we will get better deals. I predict 20% less sold wranglers in 2022. Wrangler sales will come down to 50k a year by 2025 ( core audience like us won’t buy more than that)

bronco is making 11k per month already, 100k purchased ancient 4Runner in 2021 which is getting a major update in 2022. Other outdoorsy card like Subaru wilderness will take their cut.

I guarantee you 1.5-2k incentives will be always there for wrangler, and they will finally make LED lamps standard. I doubt they will lower the price, but they will become less greedy and make more options standard ( holy guacamole, A/C will finally become standard)

Yes Jeep will have 2K rebates on Wranglers starting April 1st. The incentives will be needed to move all the Wrangler inventory that’s currently overflowing from dealer lots.

Thanks already have ours on order from Denton Jeep who have been great thus far.

Not Wrangler-related but anyone have a link to Grand Cherokee L invoice prices? Might want to trade in our ‘20 GC if the price is right.

Is Denton offering anything under invoice?

I almost traded for a loaded ‘20 JLUR Recon loaded today, only has 11,500 miles and tons of extras... they were asking $59,995, they offered me $53k for my ‘19
