AGAIN...clueless dealers
Man, I try and try to support my local Dodge dealers but time and time again I walk away extremely irritated and wondering why I even bother attempting to support them. This past weekend I embared upon what I thougt would be a simple task. To purchase a Challenger hat. Drove 25 miles, to two different dealers, neither of which had a hat, a key chain, a shirt...nothing, nada!!
Both did not even offer to order it. And they wonder....

And they wonder why they are in trouble! I went to my dealer to order a mopar exhaust system and he ended up telling me to go home look it up on the internet and come back in with the information and he might be able to order it!

RE: AGAIN...clueless dealers
When I was thinking about getting an R/T my local dealer (Lithia Dodge, Billings MT) flat out told me that "Dodge forces them" to mark the price up $5,000 on the R/T and $10,000 on the SRT8. They seriously told me that.
Needless to say I left. There was no way I could afford to pay that and no way I want to do business with liars. Hood River Dodge and Bob Smith were much easier to deal with.

RE: AGAIN...clueless dealers
Well I can highly recommend Landmark Dodge here a little south of Atlanta, Ga. Ask for Jeff Logan (404-867-5335). He cut right to the chase and gave me an awesome deal on my '09 SRT8 manual. I bought below MSRP and got a full tank of Premium to boot.
I don't normally give salespeople props. I usually just give them hell and leave them dazed and confused 8-).

Here in Collierville Tn a nationwide Chevy dealer (before they went bankrupt and closed all of their dealerships) was being taken to the BBB so often that they withdrew their membership from the BBB! They were in the news and the paper often for problems with customers. I just don't understand.
On the other hand I have seen some entertaning acts from car salesmen great theatre.
