Business ProfileforWhaling City Auto Group, LLC

On April 15, 2024 I went to Whaling City **** in *** ****** ** to purchase an **** to haul cows and my tractor to the different properties I work with. I had been working with a salesman, Kris B****, and my 1 need for the truck was that it needed to be able to haul 10k pounds since my tractor weighs 4500lbs and the trailer I need to haul it weighs 3500 pounds bringing me up to 8k lbs without any other attachments. I did a lot of research when shopping for this truck and when we sat down to discuss moving forward with the purchase I pushed back on the truck because I didn't think it was capable of towing what I needed because of the differential gearing. Kris looked up something on line and assured me that it was indeed capable of towing what I needed. We went through with the purchase and I drove down to ** to get my tractor from my parents property. I went to purchase a trailer while in ** and the salesman informed me that my truck was not rated for the trailer I needed to tow my tractor. I did not believe his assessment, even though he looked at the door sticker and punched info into his computer. I then called **** Motor Company to see what they had to say, just to find out that my truck was not able to tow 10k but 6klbs. I immediately began to try and work with the dealership to figure out a path forward since the one thing I needed in the truck was not sold to me and I was actually steered away from what I needed just to make a sale on a truck that was last years model. I haven't made a single payment on my vehicle yet and made an attempt in person (after talking with the ** and owner) to figure out a path forward. I was offered $40K for a truck I paid over $51K on not even a month prior. I asked to speak with the **/Owner (who is the same person) and was refused. I was told that that is all he was willing to do and would not be speaking with me. I was also told that I should have done my research before purchasing even though I did and was assured I was wrong
