what he means is they got their $2k elsewhere. i saw a commercial once where they took a long balloon and they showed how car dealers work. if they squeeze the balloon in one area it makes another area bigger. for example, they may have increased your trade in value to $22k, but that $2k was squeezed out of another part of the deal, maybe in the new car price, maybe in the APR for the financing, but somewhere somehow they got more money out of you.

They just put it elsewhere. I sold cars for 2 years when I got out of the army and learned the business pretty well. That's how dealerships make $. They make you think you are getting more than you actually are

ahh gotcha. Well at first we talked the price of the pathfinder and didnt say we even ahd a trade. The pathfinder was listed for 16,995 and we got that down to 16,000 even. Then we said we had the G8 to trade so they had no chance to play increase the car price to bump up the trade deal.

I can feel your pain. We went through the same crap of having repeated problems with an 08 TBSS. The dealerships never fixed the problems. I really think its because the dealerships treat symptoms instead of fixing problems.
I also feel bad for the next sucker that got the TBSS.
Luckily our G8 has been good with around 45k miles on the clock. Hope the V follows suit.

The GMC place here had one that was loaded with everything for 16,999 with 69K miles on it. I went to go look at it and they had sold it.
