dude, that is f*cked up!!!!!!
I say, take all the stuff off the truck that you paid for, return the
truck, and go to a different dealer and get yourself a Dak. Then, call
Chrylser and tell them about this dealer's unethical actions. Chrysler
WILL take notice, they are pretty good about these things =) Make sure
you tell them that your friend was there and stuff. See if you can't get
as many people axed as possible =)
