When we got there, the salesman told us to go for a test drive. We liked the suv very much and thought we were getting a good deal on a limited. When he tried to get us to financing, we said we were paying cash. You could see him stop in his tracks, like he didn’t know what to do. He said he would be right back. He came back with the sales manager who told us, the price we agreed on was for financing and we would also lose the incentive cash. Which now made the car cost $37,000. I thought paying cash will get you the best deal. No, they want their kickback from financing. Then he went back and came out a few minutes later with a price of $41,750!!! I said what the hell is this? He said dealer fee and transportation charges. I said later and walked out. He didn’t even follow me and try to negotiate anything as we sat in our car for a few minutes to see what he would do. Very aggressive sales tactics. Then I contacted Wesley Chapel Hyundai, almost in Tampa, got the price of $32,750 and they gave us $13,000 for our trade-in, SOLD!!! Good people to deal with if you want a new Hyundai. Only reason I set foot in Jenkins is for my covered service
I don't get the whole Jenkins thing where they catch you getting service and try to sell you a car. In all the years I've bought new cars, and that's quite a few, I've never had that happen.

That would really p*ss me off.
