Do your prices include all fees, or are there extras later?

We believe in keeping things upfront. All dealer fees are already included in our advertised pricing, so there are no unexpected add-ons. Taxes, title, and registration are separate since they are dependent on your zip code, but we’ll review everything in detail before you complete your purchase.

Can you help with financing if my credit needs work?

Yes. We work with a wide range of lenders to help customers in many different credit situations. Whether your credit is strong, improving, or challenged, we’ll take the time to find options that fit your needs.

What specials, discounts, and incentives do you offer?

At St. Johnsbury CDJR we offer:  

  • Dealer discounts on Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram models
  • Manufacturer incentives and rebates
  • Lease offers 
  • Affordable pre-owned inventory

Every purchase includes our BIG Deal Plus+ maintenance program, giving you additional value and benefits at no extra charge.

Will I get a good deal?

We work hard to make sure you are. Our pricing is based on current market conditions, helping ensure you’re getting a competitive value right from the start.

If you’ve seen a better offer elsewhere, bring it in! We’re happy to take a look and will do our best to match or beat it. Our goal is to make sure you feel confident and comfortable with your decision.

What’s the difference between leasing and financing?

Leasing lets you drive a new vehicle for a set period while paying for the portion you use. Financing means you’re working toward ownership by making payments over time.

Should I finance or lease?

It depends on your lifestyle, budget, and how you plan to use your vehicle.

Leasing may be a good option if you: 

  • Prefer lower monthly payments
  • Like getting into a new vehicle every few years
  • Drive fewer miles and can stay within lease limits

Financing might be the better choice if you: 

  • Plan to keep your vehicle long-term
  • Want to build equity and ownership
  • Drive a lot or don’t want mileage restrictions

Our team will walk you through both options so you can make the best choice for your situation.

Curious about leasing? Take a look at our lease specials post to learn how we will build a lease that works for your budget and driving habits.

Drive With Unmatched Confidence: Discover Our New 6-Month/6,000-Mile Bumper-To-Bumper Certified Pre-Owned Program When purchasing a pre-owned vehicle, peace of mind isn't just a bonus—it’s everything. At St. Johnsbury CDJR, we believe that choosing a used car, truck, or SUV should never feel like a gamble.

Our 6-Month / 6,000-Mile Bumper-to-Bumper Warranty goes well beyond basic protection. It covers virtually every major electrical and mechanical component on the vehicle—from air conditioning and power steering to touchscreen infotainment and safety hardware. If something unexpected comes up, you're covered. Key Customer Benefits Complete Financial Protection: Modern auto repairs can be costly. Our bumper-to-bumper coverage shields your wallet from surprise expenses during your first six months or 6,000 miles of ownership. Rigorous Multi -Point Inspection: Before a ny vehicle earns our CPO badge, it must pass a thorough multi-point inspection performed by our certified technicians. We inspect, service, and recondition components so you can drive away worry-free. Total Driving Confidence: Taking the keys to your pre-owned vehicle should be exciting, not nerve-wracking. Knowing your vehicle has been thoroughly vetted and backed by strong coverage lets you enjoy every mile with complete peace of mind. Local, Trustworthy Service: Should you ever need assistance, our dedicated service department right here in St. Johnsbury is ready to assist you quickly and hassle-free.

Looking for something fun to do this weekend? Two free community events offer great reasons to get out, enjoy a scenic drive and experience some of what makes Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom so special. Saturday: Greensboro Art Fest On Saturday, August 15, the Greensboro community will host its annual Art Fest from 11:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. on the Green at 81 Lauredon Avenue.

Sunday: Free Live Music at Dog Mountain The weekend continues Sunday, August 16, when Chambers DesLauriers takes the stage at Dog Mountain in St. Johnsbury. The free concert begins at 5:00 p.m. and is part of the Levitt AMP St. Johnsbury Music Series presented by Catamount Arts. Featuring Annika Chambers and Paul DesLauriers, the group combines blues, blues-rock and soul with powerful vocals, guitar work and plenty of live energy. Best of all, the concert is open to everyone—including your dog! Guests are encouraged to bring a lawn chair or blanket, sunscreen, water and a picnic. Local food vendors will be available on-site, along with a beer garden operated by St. Johnsbury Distillery. Outside alcohol is not permitted, and bringing some cash is recommended because not every vendor accepts credit cards. Parking will be available at the Fairbanks Scales parking lot, with a free Rural Community Transportation shuttle taking concertgoers to the top of Dog Mountain. The shuttle will also make a 4:00 p.m. stop at the St. Johnsbury Welcome Center before returning downtown at approximately 7:30 p.m. Dog Mountain is located at 143 Parks Road in St. Johnsbury. Complete concert information is available through Catamount Arts. Enjoy the Road—and Our Community You do not have to travel far to find great art, music, food and scenery. Whether you spend Saturday exploring Greensboro, Sunday evening listening to live blues at Dog Mountain or make time for both, this weekend is a perfect reminder of how much the Northeast Kingdom has to offer. All of us at St. Johnsbury Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram are proud to be part of this community. Have a wonderful weekend, drive safely and enjoy everything our corner of Vermont has waiting just down the road!
