For 45 years I have been a loyal lifetime customer. When I was a child, I always waited with excitement for the catalog in the mail. I would spend all of my fishing earnings/savings to restock my tackle box since childhood. I have always paid my bills and never had to live on credit. I own a very profitable company and thought that I could finally fullfil my dream with the purchace of a Ranger. Then, I had gone to Bass Pro with $10,000 to purchace a Ranger @ $66,000. I get what felt as a slap in the face, when I tried to finance the rest. obviously, Iam not good enough for the advertised 5.99% nor 6.99% . They say to me, your rate will be 14.8% at payback of $144,000 @ 20 years, (if I were to choose this.)
To keep you at a $550-600$ a month payment. It is sad that loyalty doesn't mean a damn thing in this world anymore. The money I have spent at Bass Pro would have probably bought 2 Rangers between my diehard hunting and fishing hobbies.The supplier I always had gone to for my love of fishing and hunting just slapped me in the face. I am heartbroken and will never look, think or even speak of "bass pro" in the same way. I didn't capitalize for a reason! I have a boat that I built with Bass Pro materials that now I am not so proud of anymore!
