Ford has the Xplan. Chevy has the Friends and Family or some such. Both allow for the purchase of vehicles below invoice AND getting the current incentives too.
My question....does Dodge have a similar program?

If you can purchase from the right individual you don't need the "special plan."
If you bring up "Fleet Sales" to a salesman...any old Joe of an auto salesman will say he is one.
This couldn't be further from the truth.
If you live in Mesquite...you are just west of a Dealer that has a Fleet Salesman.
Mine stickered for over 46. I got the 4500 rebate...ate into his dealer holdback by 278 or so. The truck had 1600(list) worth of options. Let's just say there is a 100% markup on the extra options...so $1,078 below invoice. I told him that I was not interested in these extra options. He said that was fine... and the paper work was signed. Before TTL I was +/- $10,000 under MSRP.
Not once did I get the..."I gotta make a little to keep the lights on" or "that $450 - $750 advertizing fee is standard practice...BUBKIS!!! A Fleet Salesperson sells vehicles sometimes at a loss. If he moves enough vehicles, he is helping to keep the factory open. They receive a LARGE payment from the manufacturer. This is a Fleet salesman.
Could I have done better? Maybe. I have access to the "Special plans" for GM and Ford through the company I work for. On comparable vehicles...no one else came close.
Just food for thought. Good Luck
PS...If it sounds like I don't tipically like car sales people...well I don't. MSRP prices and even ones that are marked up are rediculess to me. There is plenty of profit to be made without a "preditory" type sales team of which most of use have seen. We've all seen the guys that are almost foaming at the mouth when young girls or women enter the lot. I'm not trying to be sexist here. I've seen several females that put most guys "Car" knowledge to shame. In banking, the fed will slap you silly if they see this.
Okay...I'll climb down now...sorry
