This Friday..I'm going to a dealer to work on a price (GMID) for a new 2007 Hummer... I'm ready to buy...

So you think that I have a chance of beating the advertising thing..??

nobody subtracts the advertising from the GMID price. for some dealers advertising is not included on the invoice. for those dealers that do have it added, the advertising is AFTER the GMID price. the way this affects you is that some dealers will not honor GMID (usually it is only on the lower/entry level priced vehicles). this is because the GMID price will be much lower than invoice price and thereby be a "losing" deal for the dealer. if you are eligible for the GMID, they will show you the invoice which has the GMID price printed on it. you will sign a form that says you saw the invoice and are paying the GMID price.
