I was curious to know what everyone else is paying for their Journeys and what everyone is buying.

Mine is R/T AWD loaded, 30K. stickered at 34K.

I bought a R/T FWD loaded (just missing AWD, NAV, and 3rd row seat) that was stickered at $30,500 - negotiated down to $26,000 and was extremely happy with the deal!

WOW - those are fantastic deals! How did you negotiate them so low? Where do you all live?

Well, the salesperson originally came back with a price of $22,500 - which shocked the crap out of me. I took it right away with no negotiating. While filling out the credit app he came back QUICKLY and said the finance guy screwed up and look up a Pacifica instead! Luckily, there was a great promo on the Pacifica at the time and the $22,500 they offered me was $4500 off the Pacifica's sticker price. I said if they wanted to keep me then I wanted the same deal on the Journey - and they did it! (I am near Indianapolis, Indiana)

I assume everyone got the 1k rebate, as did i, and then i just pushed them to do better, they eventually said they would give me the preferred pricing, i asked to see the invoice, it had the invoice price, then preferred price, then employee price. If i remember right, the employee price was about another 1k off.

You are fortunate to live in the US
Here in canada there is no rebate the price is the price + you get lifetime powertrain warranty
Not fair really for the same vehicle
Enjoy your ride

Wait! You mean everyone gets the 1K rebate? I thought I was smooth when he gave it to me. I guess I'll push him a little more before I sign up!

like Larryl mentioened you guys (US) get the lifetime warranty. We pay for ours but it still isn't lifetime,....THAT SUCKS!!!!!!!!!

Woo Hoo!!

Ordered our Journey on 4-22-08

Told it will be delivered in 6-8 weeks

Ordered Inferno Red SXT AWD with Flex Seating, tow prep & Conv Pkg 1

Got the 1K rebate and since my brother is a 5 Star mechanic, got another $1k off

Worked on the price some with the dealer and finally agreed on a price

Final cost before trade in or down payment is $23k. Not bad

With our Down payment we're financing $18k. Got a 4.9% finance rate from AAA.

We're pleased.

I lease as well. What did you get, and what is your monthly payment? Are you in Canada or the States?
Just curious,

You can do better, I ordered mine 2 weeks ago. SXT FWD, flex, enterntainment group 2 (nav/prem sound/sirus) Rear DVD, Prem Conv, chrome appearance pkg, its basically loaded minus sunroof.

436/month, nothign down but my first months payment (employee price) sticker was 32600, 29800 employee price.

I pushed for extra km and my sales guy said we'll do something when you take delivery.

$436 plus tax on top? How long is the lease? Just curious, thanks,
Angie

$436 taxes included, for a 24 month lease

Cost goes up the longer the term on these (because after 2 years the residual is high, hell it will only be a year old on paper when I turn it in in 2010) I dont plan to buy it out, not good on gas, hopefully by then I can get into a fuel efficient hybrid or Chrysler will start thinking more about MPG!!

Are you located in Canada? That sounds like a pretty good deal to me.

Do you have more info on this....like what the interest rate is and the residual after you bring back the car?
I went to see my dealer recently and for 24 month lease it was 490$/month the interest rate was 5.49% and the residual was 16,456 on a vechicle that was price at 24,200 + taxes.

Where in ontario are you...I'm up North in Sudbury and I find you get better deals near Toronto on identical vehicles.

Interest rate was 3.99 I beleive, and the residual is just over 21,000 (high, but I have no intention of buying it out, just want a cheap monthly)

Sticker: 32800 (SXT FWD Loaded minus sunroof/tow/booster seats)
Employee Family Price: 29600
Lease: 436/mo taxes included 20k a year for 24 months with no money down, think I covered everything;)

A friend of mine's son just bought a Minivan down here (Leamington, ON) as he found he got a much better deal then dealing with the dealerships up north (he is is in Timmons)
