Friend of mine went to a jeep dealership somewhere in South East. Dealer has a nice Sahara at msrp ~63k Dealer ask him 15k markup and ask him to hurry it will be gone soon. Friend told him about LH deals below invoices. He said they all Fake… Friend left. Few days later sales guy left a message that he can do a lease in mid 500 monthly… Friend told him thanks but no thanks.
Looks to me Dealership has no idea how to play with these Hot potatoes if they got some in stock. They trying best to get max profit from an uneducated buyer who unfortunately are out there.
But once in a while they ran into LH customers and then they explode to find someone who knows more about leasing then the sales guys at the dealership
Great info here from Brokers and long time hackers with their timely and accurate info . I cant imagine leasing a car without first going through this site or using a broker.
The cute Latina salesgirl was scrolling thru her Insta while I was waiting…she must’ve been in her mid 20’s and smoking hot.
I said, you don’t strike me as a person who sells Jeeps but look like one of those Instagram/Fitness models. She smiled back at me and said, “you know you’re really not gonna get 5% off on an order, right?” I said, prob not…
The other “fuckboy” looking sales men were playing pocket pool in the corner.
Easy transaction with @AutoCompanion 's dealer. Setup to meet at an associated dealer and finalized paperwork and got equity check within 30-45 mins. They also offered to mail paperwork back and forth and have the vehicle picked up (as I reside about 2 hours from their location). I was going to be an hour closer on Saturday already and we agreed to just handle the sale in person.
Walked away with a little under $5k profit after insurance and one payment. Probably saved more with not driving my Ram 1500 for 3k miles with gas prices. As happy as I was with leasecompanion, I was that annoyed with GMTV. Several weeks ago when they were giving crazy quotes I agreed and signed initial paperwork to sell to them for $66k. A day later my agent realized the vehicle was still not tagged (an apparent 2 months process when dealing with Chapman) and said he couldn’t buy it. Obviously, they lost money that week, so when the plates came in they couldn’t come close to our initial agreed-upon amount.
Am considering ordering another, but not 100% decided. WIth being a tax upfront state and the market dropping I think it’s possible I find no profit to be had the next time around. I also have a 392 and TRX both in shipping limbo currently which is my priority. What are everyone’s thoughts on the 4XE market, if the car market, in general, goes down? I don’t think there’s any specific demand for this model to possibly save from price drops.
Overall highly recommend @AutoCompanion and thanks LH for all the info.
