In 2000, when Volvo was still owned by Ford, I bought a new Ford at my local dealer (Sill-Terhar in Broomfield, CO) on the employee "x-plan"... Sticker on that Ford Expedition was $36,000, invoice was $31,800 and the x-plan price was $29,900. I looked at a couple of Volvos...the invoice and x-plan prices were far closer to sticker than on the Ford. Instead of an 18% reduction in price between sticker and x-plan (which is below invoice, closer to invoice less hold-back) that I saw on the Ford, it was about 5%...very tight margin...
