dman,
I'm not giving you any props because you didn't refer me there. We just happened to buy from the same guy!! I talked to Lance Cummings on Dec. 31, 2003 about a new Titan. He offered me $100 over invoice for any Titan on the lot. I wasn't ready to buy.
Fast forward to March. I'm ready to buy now, so I call Lance and find out he's been promoted to Finance and Jerod Smith is his replacement. I had the deal working with Jerod on March 2nd and I contacted you via PM on March 7th.
I told Jerod that we [Derek McKean and I] talked prior to my purchase, but I didn't tell him you referred me, because that's not the truth. He mentioned to me he was trying to set up something where he could give $100 service credit for each referrel. He didn't explicitly say he was going to give you anything though.
As far as Bankston, Greenville, Trophy, Courtesy. They weren't even in the ball park. Courtesy wanted more than MSRP. When your within a $100 of invoice, MSRP becomes a joke. Trophy spend 5 days trying to find what I wanted.... Jerod found it overnight! Greenville Nissan found what I wanted in New Orleans and wanted to charge me the $500 freight to get the truck to Greenville; I declined of course.
BTW, if you guys do talk to Jerod, tell them DMAN (a.k.a. Derek McKean) sent you. As much as I like the way I was treated by Grubbs Nissan and Jerod, I probably won't be going back.... 80 miles round trip!
