No notification, but dealer says I have an early targeted TDM incentive?

[RancidLunchmeat]

Has anybody encountered something like this? The only targeted incentive I've received from FCA is $1k on a Dodge Durango, that can also be used for $500 off any other FCA product.

Negotiating a deal on a Power Wagon this past weekend and the dealer included an extra $1,250 in rebates (in addition to the $1k that is advertised), and told me that I have an early targeted TDM for $1,250.

I did give him my address so he could correctly calculate taxes and license fees, so it's possible that either there's one attached that didn't actually get to me or that he can "generate" one on his own?

Wondering if anybody has any thoughts or if it's just a way to get me to drive 4 hours and then jack the price back up by $1,250 due to his mistake?

So... I think I found the TDM, going through a pile of snail mail last night I found a Ram HD brochure that included an incentive code for a 12 inch screen in a HD truck. It's very oddly worded, but I'm assuming that code for the "Free 12 inch screen upgrade" is essentially a $1,250 extra rebate (perhaps only applicable to trucks so equipped).

It's very oddly worded, and it doesn't have the actual rebate listed anywhere. It's almost as if you take the coupon to the dealer and can get the screen installed on any HD that doesn't have it. (Which obviously you can't).

If in doubt call this number

8002270757, it's the fca incentives line. I just called and they found an extra $1500 that I didn't know I qualified for. Took all of 5 minutes

It's a $1295 rebate if your truck has the 12" screen. I threw mine away before deciding to order a truck. The dealer was able to look it up with my name and address. It expires at the middle or end of October i think and the truck has to be delivered, not ordered by the expiration.

Awesome, I wonder what the $1000 bonus cash was about.

No clue, I sent to my dealer to see if it tracked with their system

Funny enough, when looking at the card to find the expiration date (yes, it's Oct.. 20th I think), I did find the asterisk to the footnote that says the 12" screen will be "delivered" as a $1,250 rebate on trucks so equipped.

At least I know it's real, and the truck in question qualifies.

Thanks!
