re: Buying a vehicle from an out of state dealer

Placed $1,000 deposit via credit card. They mailed me contracts to sign. A month later when it was convenient took a $90 flight Friday from Tampa to Atlanta. Sales rep picked me up and drove me to the dealership, I gave him my signed copies of contracts, he returned with my copies (never saw finance manager), and I drove back with the truck. Smooth as butter.

Finance manager called me Monday saying I had to return the truck, my down payment was against owners policy, I told him the 25k debit card transaction had been not pending but posted and I ain’t bringing chit 600 miles back to you. Finance Manager threatened to not turn my contract in and cancel it. I told him to kick rocks.

I did pay about $7,500 under MSRP in March for a ‘22 truck lol. Got a free yeti cooler too from GM when he called me for a review.

I’m happy.
