there's a bank 1 mile from them. The day of I went and got a cashier check for koons. When I met Craig and they started "we need 3 days to verify it" i told him to follow me to the bank where i'll deposit the cashier check back and get cash in any denomination he wants. All he could do was to bring Erica in ...she looked at the check , seen it was from my personal funds and she gave it the green light. I'll still give them 10/10 only because I was expecting it. I also had email from Craig, from when I placed the order, confirming the deal was not financing contingent .
As I said they are 10/10 in my book

Now THATS ballin’

I’m just a blue collar working stiff. I don’t have $80k in cash to purchase it so I used my trade.

You're lucky. That 3 days to verify turns into a week.

When I left the house I told my wife ," Honey, I'll be back in 3 days (2400 mile drive from VA to AZ) or in 6". I was ready to wait the 3 days for check to clear and not give in to their BS. I have nothing to hide but I'm a man of principle and while providing my SSN for an identity check is reasonable, I was not willing to fill out credit applications just because. I also carried 2 forms of ID , DL and passport, but it was not needed.
Fun fact in KS i got hit by hail and strong winds. No damage to the car, because I found cover right when the storm started ..have seen 2 semi's flip because of strong winds. In liberal, KS I tipped the hotel $20 to give me the only covered spot . It was me overreacting but better safe than sorry(it didnt rain but I slept better knowing there's nothing to worry about).
As I said, Koons gets top ratings only because I knew of their financing techniques.

I planned on financing part. I'd already lost my rate from months ago.
I wanted to wire, but they told me cashiers check with my paperwork. So I did that last weekend.
Then Thursday I text for an update so I can schedule shipping, and I get maybe it will fund tomorrow, or maybe Monday, or maybe Tuesday. We'll let you know.

Meanwhile my truck is just sitting there, I've got 90k just floating around somewhere, and fuel prices are doing no favors to shipping rates.

Edit: I'm really just griping. My experience hasn't been bad. Nothing that would steer me away from Koons. Little things have been frustrating, some of which are my fault.
I'm just hella impatient on my best day, and I'm tired of driving my 5.4 F250 service truck all the time.
