>>Just goes to show you that when dealing with a car dealer the rule of

>>get.
>>First in car price, second in trade-in price, third in interest rate and
>>fourth with add-ons and extended warranty contracts ("The banks like to
>>see
>>the extended warranty contract to give out the lower interest rate").

>>In purchasing my 01 CC last month at the Simi Dodge dealer the saleswomen
>>was pushing lease, even so far as to give me inflated purchase price
>>payments. I finally told her if she wanted to make this sale she would
>>have
>>to come back with some real numbers. We told her we wanted to buy not
>>lease
>>but when we made it to the credit manager the thing was set up as a lease.
>>After putting up with the credit manager's hard pitch for a lease (we
>>should
>>have walked out) he finally changed it to a purchase and low and behold
>>the
>>price had jumped to $3000 above sticker. He said it was a computer mistake
>>but I wonder. The interest rate was also to high so we refinanced through
>>my
>>wife's credit union.
>>
>>I just got the DC survey and I made my displeasure known. Wonder if it
>>will
>>do any good.

>>Regarding Leasing. Remember car dealers only push things that benefit

>>I asked my cousins husband (a car salesmen) why they push leases so hard.
>>The answer was what I expected. Both the salesman and the dealer get more
>>money from a lease and in three or four years they get the car back to
>>sell
>>again.

>>I go to try and make a deal on a truck this evening. A local dealer had
>>found a 2000 QC equipped how I wanted and I was gonna try to trade my 99
>>R/T. They finally come back with my trade $11,3?? difference and a list
>>price of $25,6?? on the truck. They explain that I cannot get the $2,000
>>rebate because I wanted the 0.9% financing. Man those payments look way
>>high
>>over $500 a month. I tell them we are so far off that I might as well go.
>>I
>>wait outside for my keys. Out comes the salesman with some manager with
>>the
>>outstanding fact that he can get me 0.9% financing on this truck. Wait a
>>minute I thought I couldn't get the $2,000 rebate because I was being
>>offered the 0.9%. Come to find out they had figured my payments based on
>>8.9% plus were gonna screw me for MSRP on the truck, offer me $14,000 for
>>my
>>truck trade, and break it off in me for the $2,000 rebate. I wonder how
>>many
>>people fall for this crap. Oh by the way if you call 1-888-4 A DODGE they
>>will tell you that the rebate and 0.9% financing can be had together...
>>I'm

>>
>>They called me twice tonight I finally told them I would go $290 a month
>>my
>>truck for theirs no cash... lol. They haven't called back.......
