Two weeks ago, I looked at a 2019 RAM 2500 Mega Cab diesel. It had a $75k MSRP and was marked down to $63k before any qualifying rebates. The dealer was willing to come down to $62k, but no further. Though the truck had been on the lot over 90 days, I wasn’t convinced it was needed, so I didn’t press. Walked away.
Last Friday, the website marked the truck down, per the Employee Pricing for Everyone Event, to $54,380 (see image below) before any qualifying rebates. I contacted my sales rep who said the website hadn’t been updated and I couldn’t get that price. Yet, the price remained from last Friday until last night when I was told by the rep and manager that $60k was the best price I could get. They said I could get the dealer mark-down OR Ram’s Employee Pricing for All, not both. They said the website would be updated to show that.
Well, today, the website was updated. The combined rebates (dealer discount and Employee Pricing for All) are still there with the combined price being $57,700 before the $1,000 discount for persons (like me) trading in other truck brands. So, $56,700 (see attached photo).
The sales rep tells me they still won’t honor that price though this is going on six days it’s been on their site as lower - without any qualifying special association offers being met - than the $60k being given as the best price. Yet, when I emailed the internet sales dept rep, she stated the price on the internet was the price I could buy it for (I saved and screen-shotted her reply).
I’ve asked to talk to the GM / owner for an explanation.What would you do?
