Mark Dodge Thread

Asked to speak with Aaron he will set you up with somebody or help you himself good luck
 
My truck just arrived a MD this week and I am going to pick it up soon.
Has anyone purchased the LDS warranty package from MD? Is it any good?

Look in to the Zeigler MaxCare warranty. I got the 8yr/100,000 mile warranty with $200 deductible for $1760. Priced it on the Ziegler website, showed the quote to the finance manager, and he matched it and wrote it in to my contract. Not sure what the LDS would cost, but comparing the two, I went with Ziegler because it was a Mopar warranty.

I went with the LDS Ultimate. It was about the same price as the Mopar warranty with essentially the same coverage. Two reasons I went with the LDS warranty. One, I rolled it into my 0% financing because I like making money. Two, I can have my vehicle serviced and repaired wherever I want and with the amount of traveling I do, I don't want to rely on whatever Ram dealer is in the area.
 
Right now they are so busy, they didn't pitch anything to me. Just emailed paperwork, signed it and wired down payment. Aaron said it is Crazy right now!

I can testify to that. I completed all of the required paperwork via Docusign the day before I drove down. When I got to the dealership, I was ushered into the finance manager's office, signed my loan check and title over to him, he spent about 5 minutes finishing up the paperwork, and handed me over to the delivery specialist. I spent almost an hour looking over the truck, testing everything out to make sure it all worked, took a test drive, transferred my stuff from my trade in to my new truck and left. Was in and out in about an hour. I will add that I had shown up just as a major rain storm had passed through, so that may have made it quicker due to lack of customers on the lot. Wasn't hassled to buy any additional items or accessories, very quick, easy and painless!! I was even pleasantly surprised to find they included the locking lug nuts at no cost.

I bought it after a conversation with Aaron. (I'm not an extended warranty guy, especially small ticket stuff, but on a 70K purchase I had to give it some thought).

Thankfully I cannot speak to the value yet and hope I never can!!
 
I'll be

I only made three stops the entire trip - twice for gas and one to get the truck. I was planning on spending the night in lake Charles and driving back the next day, but the dealer experience was so quick, I decided to jump back on the road. It made for an 18 1/2 hour day and 1100 miles of windshield time, but it was worth it.

I'm the same except with so many electronics these days, I decided to go with it. We plan to travel a lot with this vehicle so I got the Ultimate coverage 5/75000. It was $1300. I have no idea if that is a good price, but I imagine there are many things on this truck whose replacement/repair cost could easily offset that. I thought the EcoDiesel might get a slightly lower price since it's powertrain warranty is longer and the extended warranty wouldn't come into play.

I guess the earliest I might know if its worth it is after the standard warranty expires.

I will say that there was little pressure to buy it. They just asked, I thought it over, and decided to get it.

No pressure here either. I mentioned earlier that I had a long conversation with Aaron about it. But it wasn’t a sales pitch conversation, more a discussion of the pro and cons of all aspects of extended warranties. In the end, I bought it and hope to never have to use it! Agreed about all the electronics!
 
MD made it such a smooth and easy process, I talked with Reggie for just a couple minutes on the phone and a few minutes later the DocuSign email came through. No pressure at all to buy the extended warranty but I do plan to add it in at some point before the 3/36 expires. Cody arranged shipping which wasn’t easy given the current fuel prices. I increase my shipping est to $2500 and only got 1 response for $2600 to Washington State enclosed carrier. Cody said they have been trying to ship one to Utah and placed $2100 and no one was bidding so I took it. More than I wanted to pay but still cheaper than flying/gas/food/hotels not to mention miles and wear and tear. All in all it was a great experience ordering my first truck just the way I wanted it. And I’m still $8k under MSRP at the end of the day.

anyone deal with Curry and does it matter if under the same MD umbrella? No issues, just curious. Initial online contact led to Curry. No complaints. This would be a factory order.

I dealt with Aaron throughout but I truly believe anyone on his team would be top notch!

I have. He was good to get the order done and dusted and communicated well throughout the process. It freaked me out a bit that he used his personal email as well, but apparently the markdodge.net emails fall through the cracks. The other emails for contract, etc. came from another person at MD from a MD email. He has not been good as far as any follow-up once I got my VIN. I haven't pushed too much though.

Also he missed one item off my build sheet the first run thru so just make sure you triple check. I had a lot of crap on there though.
