Vehicle purchases are one of the few items that each person pays a different amount for the same product. I learned to do a bunch of research up front and if walking into a dealership I have a folder in hand with quotes. The guys out front for sucker buyers do not even want to waste their time with you and show you to the fleet/internet sales guy.
On the 2015 RAM it was bought and paid for before we got on the plane to fly from Seattle to Denver. Internet sales lady picked us up the next morning at the Motel near the airport and drove us a hour to Greeley to complete the paper work. Left dealership and drove 407 miles the first afternoon, 660 the next day and 350 the third, arriving home in 48 Hours door to door with two nights motel receipts.
AND IT WAS FUN. Cruising for hours at 80 MPH(think 3:42 gears and two OD ratios) in Western Wyoming and Eastern Utah while learning about all the bells and whistles.
BTW we had enough air miles to fly out first class!
Only bummer was the dealer was a kid I baby sat years ago did and he not come in to meet/greet us. You all know this kid AKA John Elway. Chris
