I've already been clever enough. Go ahead and drive your exclusive SLT Sierra.

Yeah, random arse poster Lnchbox on a website called TigerDroppings knows more than GM’s own market research

Damn near evey article about GM’s re-org when they dropped Pontiac and Saturn talked about the reason that GMC was retained was that the typical buyer would not buy a Chevrolet because they wanted something different.

But I’m sure you know the real reason. Why is GMC still around after Pontiac, Olds, Hummer, Saturn, and Saab were killed? Why didn’t GM just start selling Chevy trucks at Buick and Cadillac dealerships and kill GMC? Please enlighten us.

A Sierra isn't exclusive. Get the frick over it.

Test drove both today, the Ford seems to drive smaller, while the GMC hood feels like it's a mile long.


Funny, when I was driving them, I had the same impression. I ended up choosing the F150 and am happy so far. I think the GM has a few more features.


As far as pricing, from your sticker prices, I would guess you would be well under $40 for the Ford and right at $40 for the GM.

Aren't you the expert negotiator that got a $53k F150 for $37k? Why you selling OP short?

Go to the ford place in breaux bridge. You will get a better deal on a ford. If you want a gmc wait a little longer the 19’s are about the hit the lots. I’m on my second 5.0 ford and really like it. I do like the way the gmc ‘s look but I had a really bad experience with a new 2010 I bought

Keep shopping those prices and pick what you like.

Base model lariat would have leather, ventilated seats and auto 4x4 shift on the fly knob that’s really nice.

I doubt it but they will pick you up at the airport in Huntsville. One way tickets are pretty cheap.

Robinson Bros has several XLTs out on Sherwood that say "free leather and liner" across the front. I'm guessing it's a promo/free add on in some.

Actually a Ford promotion so all Ford dealers are doing it. VIN specific though so you can't just point out any XLT and say you want leather.

GM gives bigger rebates because they overprice something they can't sell all the inventory before the new year.

Ford sells the shite out of Lariats, so they put leather seats in a XLT. Sell the crap out of them. Thus you get less discount on a good demanded product.

GM really must have kids running that shite show.

THAts no deal on the GMC. I bought a z71 SLT premium with a sticker of $54 in April for $39k new off the lot at Ewing in Plano. Do a little more digging and go to Texas

If you have family or carry a lot of stuff inside your truck, the extra room in the F150 is pretty sweet. The flat load floor is also way more functional than the GMC. One other thing is that the GM doesn't have rear air vents.

I know that's picking nits, but if you're really on the fence little things like that matter.

Hi estalker. You really are showing your stalking prowess.

I said below 40, what is your issue other than obsessing over me and weagle?

Why is that funny? GMC sells many fewer trucks than Ford.


Cuz they're cheap! I have 3 company trucks and they are all Fords because they are cheaper than the other brands work trucks!

You really need new material. How am I stalking you if I post in a thread before you do btw?

Well, in the other thread you seemed awfully full of your negotiating skills, but in this thread you don't seem as confident. I'm just curious what changed.

And nice edit to "well under 40" after my post.

$37.5, but yes. It's nice that you are keeping a record, saves me from not having to.


And for the OP, at the local dealership here, they have one with a $49K MSRP advertised at $36, so you should be in that range and below, at least on a F150. My guess would be $33-34, of course that is without any specific options such as leather as mentioned in the OP.

Why are you even bringing up MSRP? According to you it's a completely meaningless number.

It is, but I was responding to the OP who mentioned it. Try to keep up. You really don't have to follow me around on the internet. It's a bit creepy.
