How much should i pay - Chevy 3500

Chrysler also gives $10k+ off their MSRPs (as does Ford). If Chevy is only giving a difference of $1k - $3k between MSRP and dealer invoice, they've got to be making $15k+ per vehicle. Just one more reason not to buy another GM vehicle (you know, aside from the fact that their trucks aren't as good as Fords, they are subsidized by our tax dollars, and their vehicles are more expensive ).

i drove a dodge 1-ton and it was just "OK". the interior looked cheaply made and wasn't as "ergonomic" as chevy. i've had a ford 250 and put 300k miles on it. but at the end of the day, i like the chevy interior best, the duramax is a proven/sound engine and the allison tranny is good too.

the dodge cummins could probably pull the bumper of either ford or chevy. but i just don't have need to do that very often.

you touched on the basis of my question. i've been told that dealers will come $10-12k off of msrp, but if invoice is only $37.8k...not too sure. i expect the dealer to make $1-$1.5k on the deal. i just don't want to be the sucker who let them make $5k on the deal. i was hoping somebody else had bought a 2010 lately so i could find out what they paid.
