To the great thorn.. I dont understand how you can categorize all franchize owned car dealerships or sales people into the category of rip offs, rotten, or rancid. The Jd Byrider store that Adrienne bought her car was obviously shady. But because of that, you can't necessarily say that all are bad. That's like visiting a McDonalds in Alabama and ordering a cheese burger, but theres almost no ketchup on it. Then saying "All McDonalds cheeseburgers suck". Theres just no logic in it.

I tried to get a car and i got turned down everywhere. I called the local JD Byrider in Marietta, Ohio. I spoke to a salesperson, his name was Ben. He told me how everything worked and how he could help me get a car. I went in, did the budget and got approved. I got a car and have had it since December of 01. I have never had a problem with the car or the dealership. i would sent all my friends to get a car too. I thank JD Byrider for helping me get a car!

Pattie, if that is really your name First you mention that you went to www.byridercars.com. The first thing I noticed when I went to that site is they PUMP you by saying the following paragraph.
"Guaranteed Internet Savings
Just a little bit ago you visited our web site. Thanks for stopping by! If you would like up to $250 off your next vehicle from us, just enter your information below and click the button. Then print the resulting page for your Instant Internet Certificate. Add your day time phone # and we will double the certificate value up to $500.( must be presented when you arrive. )"
Then they ask you for your contact info so one of their trained lot sharks can suck-up to you on the net until they get your phone number, Then they will more then likely drive you nuts by hounding you as to when are you coming down to see
"ALL OF THE REAL NICE CLEAN LOW MILLAGE CARS THAT WE HAVE WAITING JUST FOR YOU WITH REAL LOW PAYMENTS?" Your special and we want to be the ones that are doing what you deserve.
We all know Pattie that everybody wants a stupid SUV and we all know that everybody would RUN to a dealer that can get them a payment of less then $300 a month real fast.
I Feel that you are trying to suck-up to a JDbyrider dealer or that you work for a JDbyrider lot as a "LOT SHARK".
Just think, now That www.jdbyrider.com is posted on this Rip Off Report once a person types in JDbyrider this Rip Off Report will soon pop up.
It makes me feel so dam good knowing that all of these fast talking "Lot Sharks" deception is coming out for all to see.
Pattie if you are a car buyer from JDByrider Don't be too fast to believe everything that is PUMPED into your head. It will all leak out as soon as you used high mileage Ford Explorer takes a BIG s**t. Then someone at JDbyrider tells you hey we will tow it to our lot so we can PUMP some high numbers in you hear and that we will try to make you FEEL good and tell you that you only have to pay for half to get your SUV fixed.
You half is always more then enough to pay for the whole repair.
They will go after your check book or whack and jack your monthly payments. So enjoy you LOW MONTHLY payments until your SUV takes a big smelly s**t in your driveway.
This web site makes me feel so good, JUST LIKE SEX. YEA!!!!! NOW Pattie that you and I have and some fun, I need a d**n cigarette.

I don't know what happened at the jdbyrder the person went to who says they got ripped off but i went to the web at www.byridercars.com and got preapproved for a car loan when everyone else turned me down. i got a 1996 ford explorer for $70.00 a week and have not had one problem with it. i found out that some jdbyrider stores are owned by the company and some are franchised. i am very happy with my service so if you live in indiana, ohio or kentucky

I want to start by apologizing for the treatment you got while purchasing your vehicle. Experiences like that sour the ability of truthful car salesmen to do their job to the best of their ability. I'm one of the truthful ones. The best advice I can give to anyone looking to purchase a car:
1. DO YOUR RESEARCH. If you're not sure what you're looking for, and you don't know what to research, then once you get to the lot and have a car picked out, make sure to get a Carfax and a report from http://www.kbb.com. Just as a note, kbb.com's retail value can be as far as $1200 (or more) too low, don't be suprised if the salesperson comes back wiuth a higher price, dealershhips don't use kbb.com. If the dealership refuses EITHER ONE just stand up and walk out. You don't want to buy from there.
2. AVOID BUY HERE, PAY HERE PLACES AT ALL COST. If you think a regular car lot will whack your head off watch out. third party lenders only allow so much to be borrowed on a car, depending on it's worth. Buy here, pay here places have no limits like that. Then there's interest. A regular car lot has interest rates going from 6% or lower, up to about 22% for people that have "hit some bumps on the road". At a buy here, pay here expect the interest to START higher than that. Don't ask what your interest rsate is going to be, just ask how many banks are used. The more banks they use, the better off you are.
3. BUY USED CARS FROM A PERSONAL PARTY OR FROM A NEW CAR LOT. New car lots have to be ASE certified for any kind of maintenance. Not to mention that they need to be certified by the automotive manufacturer that keeps their new inventory.
4. HAVE A FRIEND IN THE CAR BUSINESS. I hope I don't have to explain this.
I hope I was some help.

Adrienne, I Can't say that I know the pain you are feeling. But what I can tell you is a bunch about dirty car dealers and their deceptive tricks.
When a used car dealer tells you they are selling you a warranty watch them very close. What they do is sell you the warranty for two or three times what it should cost. Then if you have trouble with your used car, they say you have to pay half of the cost If you have what they call 50/50 coverage.
They try to make you feel good by telling you that they are paying half. What they are not telling you is your 50% is more then enough to cover the whole repair. So what you paid for the warranty is all Free and clear profit for JDbyrider.
Please understand that car dealers have been bending car buyers over for years and nothing ever happens to them. If you want to get even, send a copy of this whole Rip Off Report to the company owner.
