Regarding the dealer...

I leased the car and walked out a happy camper. Two weeks later, the dealer called me to say I had made too large of a down payment, so they needed to refund some of my money. I happened to be home sick that day and thought I'd go pick up the refund since it seemed like a quick and easy task. When I got there, they said that yes, they were giving me some money back AND that my monthly payments would double. I took issue with that, so they offered to sell me the car instead, which would be slightly lower payments but still considerably higher than the original contract. My head was fuzzy. I should have walked out and consulted a lawyer first. I went ahead and allowed them to change the contract. They then proceeded to totally mess up all the paper work, so that the registration was incorrect and the DMV was threatening me. It was something the dealer had to clear up and it took them MONTHS.

They also entered the wrong address for my billing, so my first bill arrived late and they called me with nasty messages (I had called them a week before trying to locate the bill).

These were all errors on the dealer's part. Not mine.

I feel like you think I'm an idiot.
No, that would upset the best of us.

You should create a thread on your dealing with the dealer separate from this. It made me not really take your issue seriously because I figured you had an axe to grind. That's all.
