Gupton Motors up to 8% below invoice

[Backcountry ADV]

5% below invoice + 1% for dealer arranged financing. (Must finance a minimum of $25k and keep for at least 8 months).

Typically dealers get a 1% kickback on finance if it's held for 90 days. You may want to ask them specifically on duration before refi. They may also be getting more for holding it 8month which could play into their overall strategies. Either way, as mentioned, calculate the savings over the higher % rate for 8 months and you'll likely come out ahead unless rates climb before you can refi the deal nearly a year later. My 2 Cents.

Has anyone done a lease through them?

Typically Leases are the highest % rate you can possibly pay on a vehicle. Pending Credit and Financials, with rates extremely low right now I'd consider outright purchase. Finance rates are in the 2's with good credit/financials. A Typical Lease would be based off a "money factor" rate which can be calculated into the equivalent interest rate. Most I've experiences are north of 10% even with good credit and a solid down payment. I've always bought outright but with Jeep's having a slightly higher than normal residual rate you may want to run the math for comparison sake. If you need to info I can share a few online calculators to evaluate the rates/factors. It's definitely worth the homework.

Sometimes yes they mark up the money factor on some cars. Right now the tier 1 MF for Sport S is works out being 3.1%. I'm super familiar with leasing just wanted to know if Gupton would give the same discounts leasing vs buying.

That does not include the affiliate 1%. The last Gupton told me (it's been about 6 weeks since I asked) it wasn't available the 2022 gladiator. He also told me he would honor it if it came back, so let me know if it is so I can pay my membership fee!

I just emailed asking about this the other day since I saw it as well and am placing an order in a few days, but he said that's only for 2021s that are still out there and not on the 2022s. He did say he'd probably honor it if it comes back for the 2022s though, but at this time it's not available.

So even though you didnt finance through Gupton you still have to wait 2 years to refinance? Do you happen to know who you are financed through ? I eneded up with the same rate as you at 3.9% APR.

I financed 26k through them to get the 1% discount off invoice, I have to wait 8 months to refinance locally or I assume they will tack on the 1% discount back on as a early payoff penalty

Early payoff penalties are not legal in all states (CO for instance).

So, my wife is ready to upgrade from her JKUS to a 2022 JLU. After hearing the great stories here, I want to order from Gupton. I know exactly what I want, but want to go ahead and build it out on paper myself. I can't find anywhere to "build" a 2022. Have any of you been able to build one out with all of the order codes ahead of contacting Gupton? if so, where'd you go to do that?
I'd like to have it all built out on paper and just be able to email that build sheet to them.
TIA

Sorry if this has been answered somewhere in the 112 pages but I'm not scrolling through it all, when you non-local guys order from Gupton, do you fly in and drive your car home or is there some way that they'll deliver it to you locally?

From what I've read, I think most fly in and drive home.

Yep, print the right pages from the order guide; there are sections for each model. The JT is here, sure there is a similar page on the JL side.

Seems like most fly in.

I just bought my wife's Rubicon from Gupton last Thursday. We flew out there and was picked up at the airport along with another JL Wrangler forum member. We drove ours back to OKC. It sounds like they will give you a decent price on shipping and assist you with that option. HT drove us to the dealership and had several stories of folks flying in from California or New England to fininsh the deal and had their Jeeps shipped home. Great folks there....most flawless car buying experience!

Thanks, I'm looking on the JL site as well, but no luck so far. Happen to have a contact email for Gupton, rather than just going through their site?

Here ya go. And yeah it's just his first name (Daniel) at guptonmotors dot com. As you already pointed out , it's probably best to have as many ducks in a row as possible when you reach out just so you can make the most use of his time when he gets to your email.

He does have a strong spam filter apparently, so try to make your email as unsketch as possible. If you have a better domain or name to send from, use it.

Thanks!
Just sent an email to him and Renee from my gmail account. Hope it doesn't get filtered.
I'm just wondering when the Earl Grey color will be available. My wife really loves that color, but if it's gonna be a while, she'll settle for Sting Grey.

Yeah I almost like Earl lol. Is it coming to the JL as well? None of the dealers will actually know about the timing of the release any more than the rest of us. We all find out together when the new monthly order guide gets published. Which should be in the next week or so really - so you could wait to see if it comes out with Earl on it and if not order the sting grey then.
