The price is MSRP, non negotiable.
However I do see some half ton models do have factory incentives with quite a few on the lot. They're specific models with specific powertrains and options. Most likely what was sitting in storage lots for months waiting on chips. Good luck with any of these Covid vehicles. Sales folks will outright laugh at you currently if you want to order an HD truck optioned how you want it and expect to get something off of MSRP. The local GMC dealer here will tell you MSRP to order on a 3500, and they're only getting allocated less than 6 a month so you go on the waiting list with no solid dates.
Personally I think anyone who buys a vehicle right now new, with interest rates spiraling up, and all the shortage/manufacturing BS you'll be getting due to the effects and after effects from Covid, is a complete fool. Be prepared to spend plenty of time at the dealer for recalls and other warranty foolishness.
Unless things have changed in the last 2-3 months, last fall most 1/2 ton models save for the top of the line models could be found with serious discounts again. Like pre Covid discounts. Or close to it.
