Contact Car Pro USA. Tell them exactly what you are looking for and where you live. They will put you in contact with the closest dealer in their network. That dealer will have a Car Pro authorized contact. You will be put in touch with that person and tell them exactly what you are looking for, what trim level, color, etc... everything you want. They will look at send you 2 or 3 vehicles that are very very close if not exact match with the drive out price. You don't haggle or even have to go to the dealer and play their bullshite games. I promise you it is worth the effort. I have purchased my last 2 trucks this way. Just went to the dealer to give it a look over when it came in and signed the paperwork and closed. Was at dealer for about 40 minutes total. Wife bought her Lexus this same exact way. My brother bought 2 vehicles using them and my mom bought her last car doing this. Doesn't cost you a cent to try it.
I can tell you if they don't have a dealer in your area there is a damn good reason for it. You might have to drive to another town to get the Car Pro deal.
Good luck.

I did my last one over email which is much better than haggling in person.
My last one was almost entirely thru texts... Will NEVER go into dealership again except for signing.

That you're playing the dealerships against each other, that tells me you're good at it. My last car (2019 F-150, 14K miles), I went in with equivalent online (including Carmax) deals and only used those. Once I got my price, I paid cash. Note, this was November and the zero % finance deals were not in place. If you go that route, don't tell them you're paying cash until the end and choose a spouse with the lowest credit rating.

Quit buying from companies like GM that play the rebate game.
"$12,000 OFF"

All dealerships deals are based on if you use their financing.

I try to buy local with everything including cars. I'm sure I pay more but it's just something I really believe in.

Shouldnt this be easier now that everything is online?

Use the worst persons credit to fool the dealer into thinking they will make the most in the finance. The worse your credit, the higher the interest you pay and the more the dealer profits.
You get a better deal and then pay cash.

I enjoy buying a new car. It means I’m getting a new car. I don’t understand why people stress over it. Find a car you like and a price you can live with. If you think you’re getting screwed then keep shopping.

XLT is a nice trim. The only thing it’s missing is leather.

They were smart in their model. People are willing to pay slightly more just to have no hassle.

I always buy mine outright.

The key is in not having to borrow or pay any interest rates. Dealerships would rather you owe a note
