Really wanted a Ram 2500 they had on the lot. Felt the online price listed was fair. At the dealership I test drove the truck with this dealer's assistant. All was well until this dealer showed u Felt the online price listed was fair. At the dealership I test drove the truck with this dealer's assistant. All was well until this dealer showed up and offered an insulting amount for my trade in and added over $3500 in dealership charges. When I questioned him, his response was its all there online. Okay, well after he asked for my counteroffer and I gave it to him he got my keys, dropped them on the table and said " here is your keys " then walked away. Very rude and not worthy of my business. Found a much better dealer and dealership at Country Chevrolet and was offered 5k more than Southern for my trade with no hidden upcharges. Avoid this dealership if you don't want to get ripped off. Also, the engine for life thing is a joke! Peace. More
