I recently went to David Stanley Dodge to try and purchase a Ram 1500 truck. Before I visited the dealership, I looked at the website. It claimed that the rebates for the vehicle that I was looking at was $5000.00 and a radio ad stated that they would double the rebate. Well, guess what? Chrysler was and is giving a $7500.00 rebate. Hmm. Alot better than the $5000.00 they were offering. My plan was to use the double rebate to pay off the vehicle that I was currently making payments on and get a truck. Alot better than trying to make payment on two. Well, after running our credit, they came back and told we didn't qualify for the truck and that we qualified for something else. So, we decided to take a look and see what it was. It was a Dodge Caliber. The car was stickered at around $14,000.00 and was supposed to be discounted because it had hail damage. I asked the salesman about the rebate and how much was going to be deducted for the hail damage. He tells me that I didn't qualify for the rebate and couldn't tell how much it was discounted for the hail damage. Either the car comes with the rebate or it doesn't. On top of that, he was wanting us to trade in our Ford Mustang which was equipt with everything except for leather seats and sunroof for a Dodge Caliber with nothing. Not even A/C. Can't do without A/C in Oklahoma dumb dumb.
