FYI, stay away from Florida for buying new cars. All my local to Tampa dealers are asking way above MSRP and adding on $3k garbage packs full of vin etch and nitrogen tire fill crap. And if thats not enough, they have a $995 dealer fee they tack on as well. What a bunch of crooks.

I want to buy a 2021 HC WB and a 2021 Jeep Wrangler JLU using my two FCA codes. Nobody local will honor them. Any dealers or forum contacts know anyone within a few hundred miles or more I guess that will be happy to honor FCA affiliate pricing for both eligible vehicles?

I had 3 dealers refuse the affiliate pricing. Just keep trying, you will find one that will. They get paid by stellantis for some of the discount, however from what I understand they will make more if they sell at MSRP. Its just pure greed.

Some may travel for 4%, but at the end of the day the extra 3% that you may save from the high volume dealers, you will pay in extra fees, plane tickets, gas, transportation of vehicle, and time! It may still be a bit less, but not that much less in my humble opinion. That is why I chose to stay close and search for a dealer that will do affiliate.

Ferman Chrysler Jeep dodge in Lutz.

On the flip side Courtesy jeep-dodge in Tampa just called me back saying they would honor the FCA pricing on anything thats eligible.

FL dealers are terrible, Ferman DJCR Lutz is 10 min from my house. Nothing but games, fee-fees galore, double destination charge, pennies on the dollar for trade, etc, Lakeland Dodge, Jerry Ulm same story. Locally you may have success with Dayton Andrews in Clearwater, Affiliate Rewards Program (daytonandrewsdodge.net). Years ago I had to travel to VA to get a decent deal on a JL Wrangler Rubicon (6.5 below invoice back then) while the FL dealers said I'd be lucky to pay them MSRP. Out of principal I ordered with Jake up at Dan Cummins, looking forward to the road trip.

Some things are more important than paying the lowest possible price. Among them are avoiding dealing with greedy/likely criminal scum that also deal cars.

Myself and my friend each ordered redeyes (I ordered a challenger rewb 3/9 and he ordered a charger rewb a couple week back). We each went to local dealers (south center Kansas) and blatantly asked if the dealers would match the 4% below invoice pricing that Dan Cummins. I spoke with 3 dealers and 2 were unwilling to play ball. The 3rd did 3% below and I was able to buy local and the car comes with life time powertrain. On the flip side that same dealer wouldn't do anything below invoice for my friend on the charger rewb and is he ordered at a diff dealer just over the Oklahoma border that matched the 4% below invoice.

Interesting interactions with dealers indeed.

Placed an order with Orlando Dodge 2 weeks ago. MSRP with rebate lock with an awesome trade in on my 18 scat.

I paid $450 for a plane ticket from Tulsa, OK to Lexington, KY. Jake @ Dan Cummins picked me up from the airport and let me drive an F8 green 5.7 Challenger to the dealership. Was in and out of the dealership in about 45 minutes with couple of free mountain dews for the road. Drove around 400 miles to St. Roberts, MO where I stayed in a hotel for $89. Drove the other 350 miles home the next morning. Paid about $625ish give or take for the whole trip. I called every dealer I could find on google in Oklahoma, Kansas, Arkansas, Missouri and Colorado. The best deal I could find after Dan Cummins would have cost me about $200 more than flying out to Dan Cummins and driving the car back even though I would not have chosen to fly because it was a bit closer.

Sure you may have to pay for things that don't directly involve the car, but there are dealerships that are selling the cars cheap enough that the total price will still be cheaper than your local stores. I guess I've never understood why people aren't willing to travel to save money. To each their own I guess. Maybe some people's time is worth $250/hr. Not mine.

Try Orlando Dodge, I was gonna order a car from them last year and they were giving me below invoice plus rebates and with no bs fees. Also another amazing dealer is Steve White in North Carolina.

 

[Fullstrutt]

Stay far away from south fl dealers. University dodge adds close to $2k in fees, dealers in wpb add about $1500 in fees and fort Meyers area they’re around $1500 as well. Bunch of crooks!

I’m about 5 miles from Ferman in Lutz. They suck. Bought 2 vehicles from them in 2014. Their service department sucks. Will never buy a car or truck from them again.

Go see Martin at Jerry Ulm. He’s one of the managers. Tell him Jeff Cole sent you. I’ve bought a Hellcat and 2 Rams from him in the last year or so. He’s been great to deal with. Was in there a couple months ago getting a 2021 Ram.

 

[Vet Rider]

Just spoke to him, great guy.

Jake coming in CLUTCH. Check out this deal for a 21 HC WB auto factory order.
