Yup, The VHO is an Extended Cab only truck. Unless they changed something within the past couple days.

So it is relevent. and a pre approved loan from your bank is a cash deal to the dealer.
From what I have heard the dealers arent going threw banks half the time. GM uses its own money so you can finance. GMAC is just a company with GM runs. So if you are paying 4% from GMAC, GM is getting att 4%. that is why you see all these 0 apr and 1.9 because GM is using there cash as collateral I mean it is there oney in the first place. That is what I have been told from a few managers of dealerships. If it doesnt make since I am sorry I am way tired. Been a long week.

The "car salesman stupidity disease" is alive and well in Pensacola. At local dealer here I was asking about availability of Silverado VHO and described it as the 6.0L 2wd ext cab Silverado and I promptly received the "oh you mean the SS" response. He was like a dog with a frisbee as we went back and forth with him saying how I was actually confused and looking for the SS model and they didnt have any, but they could order them for me. I swear it went back and forth for like 7 minutes like a demented SNL skit.
Maybe the GMC sales guys have a clue? Maybe???

If you want I could send you a link of the invoices i found so you can walk up and show them.
But the VHO from what I am hearing is only Texas, arkansas, and Louisiana so i could understand the dealers in Fl not knowing. But the fact that they DONT listen to teh customer and ASSUME something is what is wrong.
I did go to both dealerships he next day and made then make copies of the invoices. The GMC guys were glad i found them and said they would be working on gettign on in town. The chevy guys were still to busy to talk to me but teh made a copy to look at later. Was kind of fullfiling to go there and show them THEY were teh dumb ones and I knew what I was talking about.

That is perfect! I woulda loved to see the look on their faces when the invoice ( and price they would be losing ) was under their nose. Not surprising the Chibby guys pooh-poohed ya.
I also understand the VHO is limited to the TX region too. I heard NM might be included but they are definitely limited product and distribution. I just wish GM offered the VHO option last year. Damn the luck!

If I were you, I would rub it in his face as professionally and as thoroughly as possible. On second thought, I seriously doubt I would be professional. Sounds like the guy was just a real horses *** that needs to be humbled.
