This board makes such a big deal about cars. I realize that the dealership and salesman have to make a profit/living. If I don’t like the price I just leave. It is what it is.

I feel like people online feel the need to brag about getting a good deal

This is true. I push back on the bs and try to get the best deal, I also acknowledge they are a business and will make money on the deal. It's how the world works.

Even when we were getting 10k off trucks pre Covid they were making money. I think they should make a profit too, although I disagree with not being able to buy directly from the manufacturer if you want.

Great example of the loser mindset and why we can't have nice things.

We don't actually "need" a dealer to be the middleman but you just accept that it's required by law. I should be able to pick out what I want and order it from the factory if I wanted.

The amount of lying that happens at car dealerships is beyond absurd.

Dealers in Germany are owned by the manufacturers and there's not a lot of bullshite involved with getting a new car. Somehow they are able to get by.
