Gladiator Pricing Calculator WorkSheet

[Tortooga Custom Works]

@RTDNECO
I'm using this spreadsheet again to do some math... and I noticed something. The tax calculation seems to be on the number minus trade-in and deposit?
I thought it was on the purchase price before any down payment and/or trade-ins? which is it?

It depends on the state.. Texas the sales tax is on the sale price of the vehicle minus the trade value of your trade in. Several other states have sales tax based on the sales price of the car alone. Down payment shouldn't have any impact on sales taxes.

Just call your dealer and ask. They should be fully knowledgeable on the subject.

If they’re not, then you know where NOT to buy... haha

So in New Jersey (at the time of me writing this lol) the sales tax is calculated on the [Invoice Price] minus any [Trade In Value]. This is prior to any rebates or a down payment.

So effectively, the Trade In value is not taxed. Possibly a good reason to have a trade-in, even if you lose a couple bucks vs a private sale. some math worth doing...

EDIT: after a bit more math, if I get just $1000 more on a private sale of my trade in, that's better than the savings on the tax alone. so i may just private sale anyway...

I updated the original post with a new version of the spreadsheet including published invoice pricing, order codes, and a few other tidbits. Let me know if you all see any errors.

If I get ambitious, I'll work on adding the Mopar accessories.

@RTDNECO Thank you very much for your efforts on this. It is much appreciated.

Im assuming the discounts are on the none LE Gladiators. Is this the case? I could only find a dealer that would get me the MSRP. Many dealers are saying 5K over MSRP for the LE.

Dealers weren’t supposed to be able to jack with LE pricing. Having a dealer tell me that they will charge extra on the initial purchase helps me to know where I would NEVER take my business again, maintenance or otherwise.

All,

I added a payment calculator to the bottom of each sheet.

As always, let me know of any suggestions.
