I am fuming right now!
Got a hold of Mitsubishi of Anaheim through autotrader about a 1996 Dodge 2500 diesel 4x4 to tow the race truck, the guy TJ I talked to told me he would hold the truck for me and to get down there(I told him I for sure wanted it and offered up a non-refundable deposit which he declined and said no problem just get down here the truck is good as yours), around 90 miles through the thick of the LA traffic, (reads 2+hours of hell each way). So I get there and the truck is nowhere to be seen, I start freaking out until I see it pull up and some old dude gets out and starts talking about going to the nearest wells fargo, then I got ANGRY.
Long story short he sold it as I pulled in( he even called me twice as I was heading down to make sure I was coming, probably with the older dude right there playing the price), it seemed like he was playing both of us, he never told me that there was a possibility it would be sold. This is bad but what really got me is he didn't even apologize but in the same breath tells me he has a Toyota he could hook me up with, I told him in some not so kind words that I could very easily put that yota where I thought it belonged, and that is definitely not in front of my race truck.
Needless to say I am super disappointed and absolutely fuming mad, no offense to any of you honest car salesmen(I have met one or two). I can see his position about not taking dibs due to flakes but at least be honest as opposed to I have YOUR keys right here, he thought he could lure me down there and sell me some other pos and never had any intention of "holding" the truck for me, and another guy had even said the older guy had been there the previous day about the truck which was not mentioned to me.
Anyways I am in the market for a Dodge 2500 diesel 4x4 if any of you guys have a line on one or know where I can find one(have cash$$), I am not scared to drive across the country(as long as the truck WILL be there), whatever it takes.
Sorry but had to vent, may seem like no biggie but the truck was like nothing I have been able to find(and most likely never will
), 77k original miles, long bed, camper shell, crew cab...basically my dream truck....gone!
Thanks
