Since your supposed to be able to pay off a loan with out penalty, you should talk to the finance company your going with and see if they want to take over the loan just after the purchase. That way the finance person can think they'll get their commission.
The finance guy gets a kick back for those who do the financing and a percentage of any thing they sell on top of your purchase. From your conversation with your DMV and the finance guy, people should contact the local DMV before purchase of the vehicle. Also contact your insurance agent prior to the purchase of the vehicle to make sure you have insurance on the vehicle as soon as the ink dries on the deal.
Got my 2018 2500 Megacab 4x4 from the same dealer you did after seeing your videos. Paid cash. Got it for $1k more than you paid off MSRP. Still waiting for my title, Registration and plates, was told Oregon can take up to 6 weeks so i drive with a expired OR Trip Ticket until they are mailed to me. Chris George was a awesome salesman @ Lithia Spokane, would recommend him! Lovin my new Ram Cummins!
PNWreckage no worries now, just saw today when the title plates & regis. were mailed and will be in my mailbox any day now. Put a Not For Hire plate on our 1500 was passed by CHP he didn’t seem to care either. Maybe you are right, new vehicles like a rental keeps the road bandits with badges and guns from harassing one.
the finance guy knew all of this, it was his passive aggressive way of pissing you off because you didn’t know the in’s and outs of his job and he didn’t make any money. i had a finance guy do the same thing.
Wondering if you would be willing to share what price you paid? Also do you know if Jason is still working at Lithia? Looking to buy in the next week or two. Thanks
+Don Gaines I'm still really happy with the price. I don't have his email but send me one and I will send you his number, if that works. PNWreckage@gmail.com
Do you feel you should have bought the single wheel 3500 to get the better transmission? Or do you feel because you use the truck as a people transporter not a work truck that you got the truck you need.
+John Davidson Valid question. I thought long and hard about it before going with the 2500 instead of the SRW 3500. We tow weekly on average and sometimes several times per week. I wanted the 4x4 Off Road package and could not get that in the 1 ton segment, or the multi link coil rear because I like the ride (yes, I'm a baby). The tipping point for me was A) The additional cost of the 3500 and B) The additional cost of the Aisin on top of that. A built 68RFE can be had for less money and without the compromises in my situation.
Love your videos im planning to order one this year because im not a fan of the 2019 trimline, do you know if the 2500 will look like the new 1500? I sure hope not feeling kind of rushed to get a 2017or18 love the 4th gen look
I've seen documenting fees at $1800. that's so somebody at the dealer can go to dmv and stand in line to register your vechicle, What?, there's no line at my unpopulated county in Texas. it only cost $75, taxes on a new truck $800, be ware of doc fees.
unless wa dol changed the policy, the dealer should have given you a 30-day temp. but the cross-state thing may play into it but it seems like someone being lazy
+Shane Morris I agree it seems like laziness and I actually thought it might have been the finance guy's final middle finger since he didn't make any money on the sale of my truck. OR DMV confirmed that WA is only allowed to issue 3 day temp permits if it's not a WA vehicle.
I'm an ex sales guy and I hate talking to sales people. Most are morons and when they say they can't move much, I'm like I'm outa here. I bought my dodge laramie 2500 for five hundred over cost (canada prices) cause I knew the manager. Bought a toyota after that, like five years later, and the screwed me good. I fkn hate dealers.
I'm a Starbucks fanatic. I've had a Gold Card for as long as I remember. Nowadays I just get a bag of their coffee and make it with the drip at work. It's the smoothest coffee I've ever head, no acid, very little tar, kinda sweet depending on the concentration.
Did you have to pay the WA sales tax. When we moved here in WA, we bought my wifes car from an Oregon dealer. Since we still had property in MT(which also has no sales tax),and we were planning on moving back, we put MT tags on it. Long story short, some WA dickbag turned us in for having MT plates on it and we ended up having to pay WA sales tax, and put new WA tags on the car, which we bought in Oregon.
You don't have to pay sales tax in WA if you bought your car 90 days prior to moving it (car) into state of WA. Car must be registered at the address outside of WA too. If you live in WA and bought car outside of state you HAVE to pay sales tax. It is crazy but even businesses if they bring heavy equipment (bulldozer, etc) into state to do work they have to pay sales tax on it too!!!
Thanks. The dealership I went to is asking for 58,000. Differences between the truck I am looking into buy from yours is that it's white and it has a moonroof.
Yeah one more thing. Does your truck have push start? The truck that I am looking into is a Laramie and it doesn't have push start. Or is that an extra option?
+Vendetta I respect that response as well. I addressed it in a pinned comment on the first video in that series but I should probably do the same on this one.
I think he just screwed you. It's standard in Washington to give a 30 permit. The three day is a trip permit and generally not used for new car or even used car purchases.
Having purchased through them in the past, like two years ago, they are really proud of their oil packages. STCU gives the dealer a flat fee of 125 when the dealer does the paperwork. I generally like to get a purchase order and deliver a check when I shop for cars. I also purchased a Ram Rebel a week ago through that other dealer you were speaking about in Idaho. Lithia would not give me any numbers for my trade and did not have any incentives for using them again. The other dealer went about 1800 above Kelly Blue Book for the trade. I did use the other dealer for financing, they tried to get me to use their lender (BOA) but I declined and insisted on my CU. I went in on the next work day and got the preferred rate.
All dealer finance people are liars and sharks that I have ever dealt with. For the last ten years I've enjoyed the hell out of playing their games and working the shit out of them to then say "just kidding, I don't need your loan because I'm paying cash". The look on their face is priceless. It's my revenge for all the times I got screwed before I got smart with MY money.
I enjoy your videos but please, stop filming yourself steering with your knees . Driving with no hands will get you in trouble should you ;God forbid, have another insurance claim.
+Neil Kynaston statistically, I only total vehicles with both hands on the wheel, but I will fix that moving forward. I'm glad you like my videos and appreciate your feedback.

+Eric Teeter 100% agreed
Usually all insurance, if you buy a car or truck, the first 30 days is covered automatically

BADASS! Congrats man. Apparently no one cares about expired trip permits on brand new vehicles.

The best line is “The lender wants you to protect the purchase so you need the extended warranty and gap protection.”

+Don Gaines He is still working there and I paid 55,400 for a 68k MSRP truck. Happy hunting
PNWreckage that’s a hell of a deal. Would you happen to have his email address? I️d like to get ahold of him if possible. Thanks again

Great info and videos you have put out. Not to pry, but what did you end up paying for your Ram?
+Miguel Rangel Thank you and happy it's useful. Shoot me an email or direct message, I was trying to not post in publicly PNWreckage@gmail.com
I’m planning on building a 3500 srw megacab and paying cash. Do you think I have more leverage than a guy financing?
I've seen documenting fees at $1800. that's so somebody at the dealer can go to dmv and stand in line to register your vechicle, What?, there's no line at my unpopulated county in Texas. it only cost $75, taxes on a new truck $800, be ware of doc fees.
Do the new rams let a lot of outside air in like my 08? About 70mph plus

+C Steele That sucks man but well said
So did you have your credit ran twice? Once for the preaappovival and then from your credit union?
+michael morales correct which I would not do again since the dealership ran it like 6 times through various lenders. Not a fan
so whats in the cup?
+Thomas Clemente It's a super masculine white chocolate mocha. I've been waiting for someone to ask or make fun 😅

+jason 3MP People are so great... As an OR resident I did not have to pay the WA sales tax, thankfully. That sounds like a pain in the ass.

+SpetznazSamson Sounds like a giant pain in the ass!
What was your out the door price
+Rafa Vera I was trying to not post it publicly but don't want to leave you hanging. Would it be helpful?
Yes it would. I am currently looking to buy a new truck.
Thanks. The dealership I went to is asking for 58,000. Differences between the truck I am looking into buy from yours is that it's white and it has a moonroof.
Great looking truck. I hope you can stick it to them a bit.
Yeah one more thing. Does your truck have push start? The truck that I am looking into is a Laramie and it doesn't have push start. Or is that an extra option?
I wonder why he crashed...
+Vendetta Yeah, fair. Not my best example of safe driving in early videos.
PNWreckage I respect that you acknowledge that 👏
+Vendetta I respect that response as well. I addressed it in a pinned comment on the first video in that series but I should probably do the same on this one.
I think he just screwed you. It's standard in Washington to give a 30 permit. The three day is a trip permit and generally not used for new car or even used car purchases.
+Jesse Depriest I wish you'd told me to sit down before dropping that bomb on me😂 In all seriousness, that is exactly what I heard during the process.
