Anybody know anything about them?

They've plastered autotrader with ads, and unless they are really telling some fibs, their trader pricing is really great.

I'm looking for a budget work truck F250 gasser....only two options I really want are 4wd and cruise control. From their site, it looks like they have a bunch on the lot, and priced well under retail.
 
If you're talking about a white work truck style. yes they have more than you can imagine, it's nuts. Not sure how they are to deal with, I'm sure it's like every dealer you hear good and bad. I just drive by there every day.

They might be like in Mooresville. There is a lot off the road, but near Randy Marion, that has 100s of white work vans sitting. Got to be lease trucks. Just like Rental cars, the lease requires them to be turned in at around 15K miles. Had a Dish tech come out once & he told me that, as he had just Swapped his unit out. Why 15K & What the Heck do you do with thousands of slightly used work trucks?:confused:
 
Pretty sure there was a thread on here about a week ago, complaining how they tack a couple thousand dollars in non-negotiable fees and adders onto the sale.

The truck I bought, or the one at Randy Marion?

Now that I am on a keyboard I will give a full explanation of my experience at Randy Marion. I saw the trucks online for 29K-30K, so I called to make sure they had one and drove the two hours down there. I had to hunt down a salesman, when I finally found one he said the online pricing was only if you qualified for every possible rebate (first responder, farm bureau, etc), so I asked what the out the door price was. He starts getting my info and says that I had already contacted another salesman and needed to talk to him. I had put my info in the get an online price, but never got a response. So we go hunt down the other salesman and he has no clue what is going on after waiting on them to stand and shoot the breeze for ~30 mins they finally get an OTD price of about 35K. They wanted to charge almost 800 dollars to add a protective coating to the entire truck that was not optional and I can't remember what all the other stuff was they were adding. All in all they seemed to have very deceptive pricing, and didn't seem to care if I was there or not.

@Pless posted this in another thread. Seems that he didn't have a good experience.

That's probably the sweet spot to make money on the lease and then still make decent money when selling them used or onto the fleet or rental markets with very low mileage. I'm guessing it's probably like 20k miles, which gives a little overmileage buffer if people go over the 15k on the lease.
 
Post above explains my experience with them. After going to about 4 other Ford dealerships after that I wouldn't recommend them. With that said, who knows it may have been the salesman that I got paired up with.
