Very interesting visit to this dealer. I called and asked about a used truck on their lot, and salesman gave me basically the same information about it that is located on the website. I figure that it was good enough to drive 45 minutes to test drive and look this vehicle over. Got there, briefly talked with the salesman about the vehicle then he brought it around. I looked over the truck to see if there was any damage, and noticed that the tires, especially on the rear were getting really worn. That is usually typical of a vehicle they traded for , and usually just means they hadn t put it through a complete cleanup. When I got into the vehicle, it seemed a bit dirty, not bad, with a weird smell (not pertinent) figuring again, that hadn t gone been cleaned up. As I was driving off the lot, noticed the gas light was on. Again, most dealers will not have a lot of fuel in the vehicles. So, I took it on a short drive. The truck drove good, seemed like everything was solid. And as I was driving, I noticed on the front windshield just under a sticker they put on the vehicle that said duke guava not working . So, that made since then that I couldn t pull up fuel mileage average, miles to empty, the normal stuff. So, anyways returned the truck to the dealer, and spoke to the salesman about these issues. This is where it became apparent that they were being a bit shady. The salesman explained that trucks with a few more miles (136xxx) are sold out of out wholesale lot. Not explained to me or did it say wholesale on the website. Also said that anything that need fixed or the fact it needed tires, he said that that was the customer responsibility. Now, mind you, I did my research on the year and model of the truck, and the price was on average to a fully working, non wholesale truck. But the repairs needed for this truck was in the range of $2000. Now, if I had been given this information on the phone, I would have forgone the 45 minute drive to look at the vehicle. Instead, I wasted almost 3 hours with an un-apologetic salesman. I did reach out to the general manager after a left, and was told he hadn t heard of anything like that in his 20 years at the dealership. Even so, I now have a new line of questioning when calling about a vehicle. I also affirmed that unfortunately, you can t trust anyone EVER!! Isn t that sad.
