MSRP and Pricing Terms Explained at Patriot Auto Group 

It’s normal to compare prices on small-ticket items like condiments and cable companies, so it makes sense that we’d also keep an eye on pricing, especially when it comes to new and used cars. When you’re looking for a new Chevrolet SUV or a new GMC truck, it helps to have someone in your corner to make sense of it all. You can get that and much more at our used car dealership

Vehicle Pricing Terms

Our vehicle inventories are diverse, representing new Chevrolet models, Buick SUVs, and GMC SUVs and trucks. But when it comes to pricing, terminology remains the same regardless of the badge on the truck or SUV. .     

MSRP, which stands for Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price, is also known as the “sticker price.” It’s one of the many facts and figures on Monroney stickers, which can be found in vehicle windows at our dealership. This price is set by General Motors, with the selling price set by individual dealerships. 

Did you know you’re not the only one paying for your vehicle? Invoice price is what a dealership pays to get a particular vehicle into its showroom. Similar to MSRP, the base price consists of a vehicle’s MSRP before extras are added

What Determines the Price I Pay?

Besides the factors we’ve discussed, dealerships like ours also add options that we know are in demand. Each trim also adds more standard features to models below it, so even though a Chevy Silverado 1500 has a $28,900 base price, the addition of accessories, options, and more will likely add to that price.  

Not to mention, the state of Pennsylvania also charges six to eight percent sales tax on car purchases. There are also documentation fees, destination fees, and sometimes even GM financing fees. Our Chevy dealers will help you make sense of it all.

Saving Money on a New Chevy Car

From Buick lease and finance deals to manufacturer incentives, there are many reasons that MSRP is just a “suggested” price. No matter what your credit looks like, or what you need, we’ll work with you.    

Think about what you can get for your money when you visit Patriot Auto Group. The models in our showroom offer more luxury for your money, and we can’t wait for you to stop by and see for yourself!
