Thanks Vetteguy. I found the truck I wanted at A dealership. Got him to $32,580, which is about $11k off of sticker.

Emailed dealer B who has same exact truck and told him to beat that price and i'd buy today. He quoted $32,580, so came off $200, which isn't much, but this truck used sells for $31-$32k according to Bluebook. They're not gonna sell it for much less.

Then my only advice is don't get raped by finance. Everything is negotiable, even the warranty.

Exactly.

Buy from Dealer B, but make sure they don't clip you on the doc fees. In other words, make sure you are gonna pay $32,580 + applicable tax. Some of these dumbasses try to tack on a $300 "title fee" in the deal.

IIRC, you are a younger gal (around my daughter's age or so) and you may not have a ton of exp. with this. Maybe get a older relative to help close the deal (someone who's bought a bunch of cars before). Not a knock on you, I have helped a lot of relatives and friends.

Main thing, just be sure the deal doesn't change when you get to the F&I guy.
