It IS coming...….
 
I'm hoping the new incentives will come out April 1. The 3.7 for 60 ends on March 31, fingers crossed
 
Rich, at the least they will have to renew it, but the cascade effect is going to hit everything hard. Autos, especially hard. Many hard decisions to come. Hopefully in a few weeks, sanity will come back and we'll get this thing figured out. The plus side is, we don't have to fight crowds as much, even on the road.
 
You got that right. I did read an article about how would the fed lowering rates affect auto loans an they all said it would only be minimal change on atuo loan int rates. But we have seen otherwise so far with heavy Chevy, so I'm optimistic
 
I don't think you'll see much more in rebates on the HD trucks as Ram has smartly kept the old cab design, thus allowing them to maintain a lower msrp price point vs GM or Ford. May not be cheaper from top to bottom, but in my case, I was looking at the 20' GMC Duramax and my Ram Cummins was over $7k less msrp and they offered $12k off around New Years with the Employee Pricing promo. I know that GM has finally given in and offered a $3k rebate on the 20' HD 2500 trucks depending on model, but they're still more expensive. I could be totally wrong, but Ram seems to have their inventory more inline than the other two major players.

I have no crystal ball, just my gut. Looking at markets, off 32%, has really changed my thinking. Seems I am supposed to stay at a certain level as I have experienced 3 major losses in 36 years so far. My business is going to take a hit, I just do not know how bad yet. Maybe the auto makers will not deal and think another bail-out will come......I thinks the money printing machine is on overload and may burn out. Looks like I will be looking at 2021 trucks. Employee pricing for everybody, I hope.
 
Well, with the Saltillo assembly plant shutting down due to the Virus, that will conveniently help right size the inventory as sales slow/halt during this event.
 
I saw an add for the Ram dealership doing 0% for the 72 months or whatever, but it also said if you do that you won’t get any of the rebates.

If that's true, I guess the decision is based on how much one would save over the life of the loan at 0%. In my case, my projected loan amount and interest rate results in approx $4700 of total interest over 72 months. If the dealerships offer rebates > than $4700, I'll consider taking the rebate instead.
 
Im going to only take 18 months to pay mine off so paid interest should only equate to $700, so int rates wouldnt make to much of a diff to me but every 100 i save is only another bonus
