New Owner Eric Josephson Secures a Deal of a Lifetime with Custom 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 RST

Eric Josephson, a first-time Chevrolet owner, has made a splash in the automotive world with his recent purchase of a leftover 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 RST Waldoch Upfit, complete with a 6.2L V8 L87 engine.

The deal, which took place during a strategic Labor Day sale, was a significant factor in Eric's decision to switch from Ford to Chevy. The Silverado's strong brand identity and the dealer's offer, which included a 200k-mile extended warranty, a brand-new trailer, and a custom Waldoch Upfit, were compelling.

The Waldoch Upfit, a custom upfitting industry known for transforming stock vehicles into bespoke, high-end machines, added suspension lifts, larger wheels and tires, custom interior upholstery, and unique exterior badging to Eric's Silverado.

Denis Flierl, a Senior Torque News Reporter with a 30+ year tenure in the automotive industry, reported the story. The 6.2L V8 L87 engine, subject to a manufacturer recall for specific 2021-2024 models due to potential defects, was ensured to be recall-free before the sale, thanks to the dealer's diligence.

The exceptional value of the deal demonstrates the power of negotiation and the potential for a dealer to sweeten the deal with creative and valuable add-ons. The final out-the-door price for Eric's Silverado RST with a 6.2L engine, custom Waldoch Upfit, 200k-mile warranty, and new trailer was $58,000.

The inclusion of a brand-new trailer in the deal is an unusual incentive for high-value vehicle purchases, making this deal a prime example of what can happen when a buyer is patient and a dealership gets creative.
