I agree. but here's what we noticed with Jenkins. They were not actually advertising their bloated prices. You'd find the car on line on their page, and there would be a link saying "Email us for today's price" or something like that.

Ok. did that. with 17 nano-seconds, get a phone call from someone in sales. Not saying the price, but trying to get me to come in.. get info off me. but not at all indicating this price well above MSRP as advertised on the company's site (like Honda, or Genesis etc).

If they simply advertised the prices, I'd be like, ok. that's what they are! but they weren't. Jenkins is playing a game. Let you come inside. say all the right things but then hand you a quote that will make your jaw drop. Believe me, if they advertised on their page that the price of the car was not $67,500 as Genesis of America said it should be, but instead $83,000, I would not have bothered to drive over there. They were not advertising their actual prices!

Its a very deceptive little game they run at those dealerships.
