If the 2006 Suburban rebates are $6000, and local dealers are offering double rebates, it means I can get a $36K truck for $24K and that sounds good to me. Problem is...there aren't any 2006's at those dealers. They advertise them, but don't have any.

Does anyone know of a dealer with 2006 Suburbans in stock?

Rebate on the 2007's is $2000, doubled to $4000, but that would put a payment out of our price range. A $24K truck, $4500 down, over 6 years at 10% is a $412 payment which we can handle ($400 would be better, $350 best). But a $32K truck, $4500 down, over 6 years at 10% is way out of budget.

I guess maybe we need to look at a nice used 2004...

How is the depreciation on these things anyway? Would it be worth buying a used 2005 or 2006 or do they retain more value?

I'd do a search on Autotrader. A used one is a good idea, the old ones lost their value very quickly because of the huge incentives.
