Wendy's Employees Can Snag a Discount on Durango Hellcats—Yes, Seriously

If you work at Wendy’s, you might be able to sling more than just fries or a delicious Frosty. Wendy’s employees qualify for a discount on select Stellantis vehicles. One of the more notable inclusions in this program is the 2026 Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat; 710 horsepower has never tasted so good.

The program is called the FCA Affiliate Rewards. This is a program extended to many suppliers, fleet companies, and more. Wendy’s being an example of the "more." Employees looking to secure a fresh Stellantis product receive pricing one percent below invoice, plus a $75 administration fee. This pricing is haggle-free, which is certainly a nice touch.

Still, the average Wendy’s employee is unlikely to be looking for a vehicle with a starting price of nearly $80,000. Even with the discount, a Durango Hellcat remains an expensive proposition before you add on fuel and insurance costs. CarsDirect did some math and calculated that a 2026 Durango Hellcat would end up with an out-the-door price of nearly $93,000 before tax. That’s a heck of a lot of never-frozen, square-shaped patties you’d need to sell to afford this monster SUV.

Thankfully, the program includes vehicles from the entire Stellantis lineup. There are Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Jeep, Ram, and even Alfa Romeo models offered under this program. However, if any of these vehicles are currently available with a rebate, that offer is likely the stronger one compared to one percent below invoice.

Interestingly, Wendy’s isn’t the only fast food company on the list of program partners. Burger King treats its subjects to these deals. Arby’s, meanwhile, will not let you roast the discounted meats. Taco Bell wants you to live más behind the wheel of a lightly discounted Hellcat. That’s also useful if you need to get to a bathroom quickly.

If you’re a Wendy’s employee or work for one of the other fast food companies mentioned above, but you live in California, Massachusetts, Oregon, Washington, Vermont, New York, or Pennsylvania, you’re sadly still out of luck anyway. The 2026 Dodge Durango Hellcat remains banned from those states. This problem is likely to be fixed soon, though. So keep your credit in good standing, set aside a fuel and tire budget, and roll into work with one of the most powerful SUVs on the planet.

Or wait a bit longer for the upcoming 2029 Dodge Durango.
