Rick Hendrick Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM Duluth
If you have reached this page, I have probably reached out to you about purchasing your Tesla. Just some background on me, I have been in the automotive industry for eight years, and I am currently the General Sales Manager at Mall of Georgia Mini, part of the Hendrick Automotive Group.I believe the best product to sell is a product that you believe in. We want your Tesla for the same reason you wanted yours. The more research we do and more experience we acquire, the more impressed we become. We believe there is value in their performance, low maintenance costs, and reliability.
We also believe in the environmental benefits, reducing our carbon footprint without sacrificing on pure performance. We are surprised by the few dealers who are interested in EVs in the Atlanta area. However, we have no doubt that EVs are the future of transportation. We are fully committed to getting ahead of the curve and to further move us toward that tipping point when these EVs are the norm instead of the exception.
Step 1: Complete the form below with your information. If you don’t hear from us within one business hour of completing the form, please call or text John DeHass at 770.380.7876 to ensure it was received.
Step 2: We will reach out and e-mail a DocuSign form with the preliminary paperwork. This will also have a secure portal to upload your license, registration, and front/back of title if available.
Step 3: We will FedEx you the paperwork (Vehicle Purchase Agreement, Odometer Disclosure Statement, ID Verification, and Limited Secure Power of Attorney). If you own the title or have the title due to living in a title-holding state, please do not sign the title in order to avoid titling delays. The Limited Secure Power of Attorney form allows our Title Clerk to sign the title in the correct places.
Step 4: After you return the paperwork, we will send the payoff to your lender if you have a lien, or we will FedEx you the check directly if you own the title.
Step 5: After the lien is settled or you receive the check, you will transfer ownership in your Tesla account to us, and we will arrange picking up your car!
If you owe more than the agreed upon price, you will need to include a certified check payable to Mall of Georgia MINI for the difference between the agreed upon price and you payoff. If you owe less than the agreed upon price, we will FedEx you the overage amount as soon as we receive the title/lien release from your lender or DMV. Each state and lender is a little different with timing on this, so please reach out to your lender if you have questions about time frame.
You would include a certified check in the paperwork back to us for the difference after I get the 20 day payoff. If you owe less than the amount offered, then we would overnight you the payoff difference when we receive the title from your lender. Here are a couple examples:
Typically, my customers allow me to pick up their Tesla when they send me back the paperwork. However, some clients feel more comfortable waiting until they verify the loan has been paid off. Either way is fine with us. While we prefer to get your vehicle as fast as possible to place online, we understand and want you to be comfortable throughout the process.
The biggest advantage we can give you is speed, safety, convenience, and most importantly, guaranteed funds. We know a lot of private sellers end up working with us because of the headaches that selling privately can cause. Ranging from just wanting to drive a Tesla for the first time to not having the funds to outright fraud, selling privately can be more lucrative, but has its own set of costs in terms of time and frustrations. We are an established, reputable organization that will treat you fairly and purchase your vehicle quickly and seamlessly.
Absolutely NOT. We go all over the country looking for Tesla from private sellers. We refuse to buy them from an auction. I have purchased multiple vehicles from California. So no matter where you are, you aren’t that far away.
I have been in the automotive industry for eight years, and before this I was an English teacher at the high school level in Columbus, Ohio and as an ESL instructor in Japan. A long, circuitous route brought me to Georgia eight years ago.
Around October of 2019 a client traded in his 2013 Tesla Model 3 with 150k miles. Typically we wouldn’t retail a vehicle with that many miles, but my Service Director inspected it and told me it was in great condition. I didn’t have a lot of expectations for it, but figured I would put it online to try it out, and within a week I had over 30 inquiries on it from all over the country. At that point, I had to sit up and pay attention. What are these Teslas?
As I did more research into them, I became impressed with their performance, low maintenance costs, and reliability. With my sales experience, I also have learned over the years that the best product to sell is one you believe in. After studying these vehicles, I can absolutely say I believe in the value of them.
There are multiple reasons why people buy a Tesla, from environmental impact to pure performance purposes. I am surprised of the few dealers who are interested in electric vehicles in the Atlanta area. I have no doubt that EVs are the future of transportation. I am fully committed to getting ahead of the curve and moving us closer to that tipping point when these EVs are the norm instead of the exception.
Absolutely! We have purchased hundreds of Tesla models. Our clients love working with us because we are an established organization, we take care of the logistics, and we have great customer service. We try to have between 5 to 10 Tesla models in stock at all times. Check out a few that we currently have for sale on our website!
