Yeah, Michiana isn't budging. I tried getting a quote on a JLU before deciding on the Gladiator and they wanted me to come in first. Typical big dealer BS. I liked working with the smaller dealers around the area much better. However, none would match 5% below Invoice like Travis at Tri-City...
He emailed me back on Wednesday. He's usually gotten back within a couple days via email. I also called him once last week to confirm details before placing order and he answered.

Salesman at Tyler in Niles told me FCA rep said probably not until next year. That's what made me start looking elsewhere for a similar or better deal now. Didn't want to play the maybe next month game.
Good to know. I was eventually fed up with the dealers closest to me and really liked the reviews of the buying experience from Travis at Tri-City, so I went that route. A far drive, but I'll be taking a few business trips to Charlotte this Fall anyway. Will be a nice drive back.
I gave up on David and Beaman, as well. After several back and forth texts over the course of a couple weeks. He responded the first time fairly quickly that they'll do 5% below invoice with their financing, but I couldn't get him to send a quote on my build. There was always an excuse and him...
I tried the below and they couldn't match the 5% below invoice I got from Tri-City.
Tyler in Niles, MI
Sorg in Goshen, IN
Michiana in Mishawaka, IN
La Porte in La Porte, IN
Bosak in Merrillville, IN
No problem! I saved as soon as I found the code list on another thread. Knew it would come in handy.
Haha...Hopefully no one gets ZA without electing to do so!

I tried reaching out to Drew, but have not gotten a response. Left voicemail, talked to sales manager (Erin?) and said he would call back, called and asked to talk to anyone about Gladiator pricing. Have heard nothing back. Glad you were able to get a good deal and thanks again for the info...
I texted David Hemontolor, the salesman recommended by someone else on forum, and he texted back after a couple days. Emailed him build for quote, but still waiting to hear back. Travis at Tri-City emailed back within a couple days. I think they are all swamped.
Salesman at dealer near me said his Chrysler rep didn't think it would happen until next year. I'm looking at Beaman in Murfreesboro or Tri-City. They are both at 5% below invoice with their financing, 4% without. Quote on Overland from Travis at Tri-City today showed 5% below invoice was $200...
No problem! Yes, I've seen many manual Overlands In Transit or On Dealer Lot that have it. The salesman at a local dealer can't get an answer from his FCA rep. The weird thing is I don't notice anything keeping someone from ordering a manual plain Sport with Trac-Lok.
