Yard report from Fort Wayne, IN: Hoosier Heartland Motors runs about 50 vehicles, weighted toward pickup trucks and work trucks. Dealer permit posted at the office window; checked against the state board and it is current, roughly 27 years on the books.
Lot address: 2340 Industrial Blvd, Fort Wayne, IN. Visitor parking: Front-lot customer stalls facing the office; overflow on the side street near Fort Wayne lot gate.
- Doc fee: $399, printed on the buyer's order — not a surprise line at signing.
- Pre-purchase inspection allowed on their lift or off-site — no pushback.
- Titles: staff says about 99% of units have title in hand; they showed the folder when asked.
- Coverage: a 30-day/1,000-mile powertrain warranty.
Lane verdict: workable but negotiate. The metal is fine; the add-on sheet (etch, nitrogen, prep) is where they make their margin. Strike the soft add-ons and the deal pencils.
