Second is Bankston Dodge(an Auto Nation dealer) in Grand Prairie, TX (Dallas burb). Their website listed 3 loaded SRTs and advertised MSRP $41,985, "Online Price" $40,941 (link below). When I called them they told me the "online price" was MSRP and that was how they listed them. She then proceeded to tell me the MAP was $15k over.

All I can say is what scumbags.
 
You should report both dealers to the Better Business Bureau and the Texas State Attorney General's Office (Div. of Consumer Fraud). Other potential buyers should know about their unscrupulous business practices.
