Then you say DFW


Or you can just go to CarGurus, find that cheap vehicle for $10K less in Tampa, call them and say I want to buy it over the phone and have it shipped to me. They will put you on hold, tell you it’s gone, but they have one for the same price as in Houston.

Go to the website of the car brand you are wanting. Put together whatever package you want. If they are selling it for more than the price that is on your print out, pull out the printout and say "this is what I want and the price I will pay". Cut the bullshite, if you can't do it, just save me and you time and I will go to the next dealership. So either you can make the sell or somewhere else will get the sell. And don't waste my time doing that whole "I have to go talk to my manager because if you have to do that then I might as well go talk to him. So yes or no, can you sell it to me for this price?"

Selling you a brand new car, $60,000 MSRP sticker, your number one choice in exact detail. There is 1 on the lot. Dealership tells you someone is interested in buying this vehicle this weekend.

Your number two choice, different brand/model/car, is available in other dealerships within 100 miles, but is $66,000 MSRP sticker, 10% higher price and missing significant feature that you want.

Tell them, "Lol! Sike! It's a car, not a house." Then apply said money toward paying off your mortgage.

Won't mess with dealerships on new cars.

Go to car max or carfax and find exactly what you want at a fixed price

That’s a major area of sports funding to entities like TAF. Find solace that every time you get screwed over at a dealership, you are contributing to a college NIL deal.

very simple. Let them know that if the deal is fair, you are ready to drive if off the lot today. Also, never go into a buying negotiation without understanding that walking away without a deal is a win for you.
