suppose can always look into a T5 Mom 7 seater? what options on the T6 do you like?
i picked up a T5 AWD with advanced and media package
i didnt personally find any benefit in upgrading to the T6 for my needs, so was happy enough to stick with the T5
This would be a good place to start your research. Talking numbers with a dealer before working out what the vehicle should cost is setting up for failure.
Incentives and such are region dependent and person dependent. What you qualify for in California isn’t the same as what someone else will qualify for in New Jersey.
I’ve seen Volvos have a $5000+ swing in incentives across regions. If that was the case and you were comparing numbers where you had the incentives to a region that didn’t and matched their deal, you’d be overpaying by almost $200 per month.
The best way to get a good deal is to be as educated as possible about the deal and know exactly what you’re looking for. Cutting corners in that process will only harm you.
If I assume your dealer has your best interest at heart and I make an educated guess at the RV, MF, incentives in your region plus make another handful of assumptions, I can build a calculator for your deal. See attached. If all my guesses are correct, the deal is solid in today’s market.
But I would not sign up for a $23,614 financial obligation built on a house of assumptions. I would do my due diligence and understand what the dealer is putting into my deal to get to $620/mth and $1,294 DAS. I suggest you do the same. That’s the same advice I would give to my friend in your shoes.
