Little is better than none! Thanks. I believe the dark, bold bottom line sticker price total was $29, 900 (or $29,500). But just to clarify: The sticker did NOT say $31,500. It said $29,500. You are confirming if THAT was the price on the sticker, the total would've been $31,500 with those...
So, I guess I could say the dealer gave me $23,500 (or $23,900) for my 2020 Dodge Ram 1500 Crew Cab and I added 6K cash to that. Oh, and I had to listen to the usual salesman lament: "I did not make any money off of this sale! You got a DEAL!"
The sticker said $29,500 or $29,900 (I have to check) with all fees, etc. I traded in my 2020 Dodge Ram plus $6,000 cash down and I was out the door. Total, 29,900 or $29,500. I hafta check.
I kept chastising him for using all of the bullshit salesman "buzz words" one me. I told him to knock it off, that I wasn't some 17 year old high school student getting his first new car from daddy.
I appreciate your candor. I usually keep cars ten years or more (my 2010 Toyota Rav 4 Sport runs like it just drove off the new car lot! Fit, finish and steering still tight as a drum! Paint is in bad shape but the engine and drive train handle brand new! Then again, I serviced the thing...
I just checked the J.D. Power website which indicated I received a high trade in value price for my pickup. So, I guess my question really happens to be: should I have paid sticker?
I believe he might have mentioned a $1,000 rebate somewhere in there. OH, and he said I was getting a "deal" because it was the last day of the month and they had to move ten Mavericks before end of shift.
Yeah, I suppose so. I did the math: $23,500 for my 2020 Dodge Ram and $6K cash down. That covers the $29,500 sticker price.. Who do I keep seeing deals for this Maverick model NOT at 29,500 but, closer to 25-26K?
I am beginning to think I didn't get a bad deal nor a good deal. Just an "ok" deal. Should I have not hoped for my friend doing the best deal for me in the first place?
There's an old saying: if you buy a car from a friend, he will no longer be your friend. That being said, I just want to make sure my "friend" didn't pull a fast one on me at the time of sale. I always hated buying a car anywhere, my entire life, because I enter the dealership just knowing I...
