New truck taken away! WTH???

[wvinson]

Yes, I've never dealt with a dealership like this --always feel l I'm getting ripped off even though it doesn't seem so. I actually feel like they're trying to help me out and being honest with me! At first, I'm like, that's too far to drive. After speaking with them and seeing the numbers, I really don't care. I'll drive the 650 miles to trade my lease in! As God would have it, I didn't have to wait 3 months and I get the truck I want NOW!

One of my favorite movies is Michael Douglas in "Falling Down."

I just got back an hour ago from the 9 1/2 hour trek from Mark Dodge also. Mine looks like yours except silver. 660 miles later, it's still pretty clean -- just a few bugs and a rock chip in the windshield from Baton Rouge. Tony, my salesman, was very helpful, quick, and nice. Also enjoyed meeting Jason Hedgecock. Mark Dodge figured out the way too sell 400 trucks/month. I'm sure I'll be going back in a couple of years.

Here it is loving the silver in the night package. Always had black before. Also love the ram boxes- another first! Hud is fantastic.

Congrats on a good ending to your story. Ordered mine from Bud Clary when they were competitive with MD, only because they were closer. Quotes from both were within $100. Dealers in SOCAL consider MSRP a good deal. Clary was a good option for left coast folks, though they now appear to be out of the internet discount biz. Flew up, drove her home, nice scenic trip down the coast. Big plus to this approach IMO is the up close & personal inspection.

Yes, I definitely wanted the hands on experience too. I've had too many experiences where there was something wrong when I got there.

I was 99% sure I wasn't going to drive back home in the same truck I was trading in again, but I knew MD would take care of me if something wasn't correct or my truck wasn't perfect upon delivery. It was flawless for sure!

Absolutely entertaining movie!

Man, what a visit from him could do to change some Sales Manager's perspectives

Nice truck! Congrats!

Maybe I missed it, but did you mention the original dealer who screwed you? Hate for someone else to fall into their trap

I did not, but it was Lake Norman, N.C.
