    I can't go into the details...

    My wife is the marketing manager at a hotel/casino and works with the local dealer for giveaways and promotions... She has a great working relationship w/ the new car sales manager...

    My truck had sticker price of ~$33,000...

    I payed less than the employees... plus got 72 month/90,000 mile bumper to bumper w/ no deductible...

    I wish I could disclose more, but the price I paid is only relevant to my connections and situation...

    Sorry...
