Canadian Dealerships below invoice?

[Jerhemi]

Has anyone got anywhere with local dealers? I am think Peel might be the place to call. They move a ton of trucks.

I've had contact with Grimsby Chrysler. They seem to be the most honest I've talked to, and most likely where I'll end up buying from. also had good communication with bustard in listowell. They also have a dealership in Waterloo I believe.

Bay King in Hamilton told my buddy 60G for fully loaded Rubicon, but past experience with them has me doubting that very much.

Say what?
I think your info is a little skewed, go to build and price on Jeep.com, then build the same on Jeep.ca.
A 2019 Wrangler 2 door Sport S in Canada is around $45,000CDN. Add the 25-30% difference in exchange rate and that is around $60,000.

Yup

Hey We The North Friends, possible for one you guys to offer up an oot or some other Canada words? Those of us on the other border get such a kick when we hear words like water, or cool weather, or clouds, especially in Canadian! Our Jeep friends around the world may appreciate it so!

US citizens can get the HST back though. I used to stop all the time and get it refunded or a portion of it refunded. Is there an import tax we have to pay if we by north of the border and road trip home? Then there is that damn KPH thing we would ha e to convert to mph and I bet pushing that button would be as annoying as pushing the damn ESS button! Is plywood cheaper in Canada?

reminds me of that seinfeld episode where they plan to collect cans in one state and get the deposit in another, lol.

Yeah they have the ads that say they are the best lol. Check out the dealership at Yonge and Elgin Mills. They have a massive inventory of Wranglers. They were the first I saw with a JL Rubicon.

Also Ontario Chrysler is a member of OF4WD, if you are a member I think they have preferred pricing.

I read a news article that said doing that is illegal.

When I was Ram shopping, they had the best pricing going...Ended up in an F150 though.

You know... everything you hear in the news is true.

Yup

I am kinda shocked at this. Not often is the exact product cheaper in Canada once the exchange rate is considered. I built a 2 door Sport S JL online at Jeep.com it was $42000.
With current exchange rates that is $56000 CDN. Built the same one at Jeep.ca and it was
$49000 CDN.
So for $ 7000 difference why wouldn't most Americans just come north for the same vehicle?
Hope for the same with the JT.

That’s American regulations for you. I would bet that 7k is not cost of the truck but rather taxes and fees that are put in place here in the states. Typical government overreach.

Not sure about Americans buying in Canada, but I remember when dollar was at par, and US vehicles were cheaper than here, every dealer I called, for both a Jeep, and my wife's car, a Scion at the time, no dealer would sell brand new for immediate export. Had to sell to an American and register the vehicle there, then sell it "used" to us. They claimed it was warranty issues, but one dealer told me flat out, it's the manufacturer that doesn't like it. They impose a penalty on the dealer for doing it. That dealer told me he'd be happy to do it, but I'd have to pay the penalty, which basically put it over the cost of a Canadian, so we didn't do it .

Discovered that whole thing because the first Scion she saw was listed as used, but was a dealer demo, so they wouldn't sell it to me directly.

That's your cliff clavin fun fact for the day.

I read one that said doing that was smart economics. =p

It was on CNN..#fakenews lol

I remember when that happened. Lots of Canadians flocked to the US to buy cars, and Car Manufactures cancelled their warranties because they bought the car from the states. People were typically saving 10-15k on a car, almost any car.
