    An extra bonus to your bonus question. I worked as a technician and a service writer at dealerships for several years. It is good to know what they did fix/replace during inspection, but you really want to know what they DID NOT fix/replace. If the dealer will let you see the full work order, you will get to see what the technician suggested to fix but the sales manager turned down. 90% of the time, the sales manager will only fix the minimum amount to get the car to pass any state inspection. So even if there are no major repairs, it is still good to know what the vehicle may need fixed soon.

    I sold cars for 12 years. My goal was to treat someone well enough to get them back down the road and get referrals. If I tryed to cheat someone, it might get me a sale but being succesful was about maintaing a two-way, honest exchange, over and over...for the long run. Most customers lied to me, about everything, I'm not joking...they just came in full of distrust and had their dukes up. Once they realized that it was in both of our best interests to be honest, things went well. I left because the dealerships themselves were about the bottom dollar, my morale compass didn't fit with their lack of one.

    This exact thing happened to me at a GMC dealership. The sales manager had my keys and there were 2 other sales people in the room. When I left, the manager told me that I was the first person to leave without buying a new truck in similar situations. The first lie was that they had a blue truck there somewhere on the lot. They didn't. They were trying to sell me a black one, which I didn't want. The funny thing is I ended up buying a black Silverado leftover from a Chevy dealer because the deal was so good and I hated my trade in so much.

    I was interested in buying a new Tundra. So I went to a local Toyota dealership and spoke with the most senior salesman they had. He had also sold me a forerunner to the Tacoma previously. When I questioned him why he was trying to charge me full price for a truck that had been driven by the sales manager and had 1,500 miles on it, he told me, "Someone has got to pay for those miles." I never went back to that dealership and have bought 2 new Silverados since.

    Chevy Dude, #1. Sounds like this info applies more to used cars than new cars. #2. I’ve rotted for hours at dealerships because I did not know better. Now I know better and I negotiate over text with the internet sales manager. I am dealing with a decision maker (not a messenger) and I get an OTD price. 3. Why would I care what fees a dealer charges. The only thing that matters is the OTD price. Let dealers play with the numbers. I only deal with the bottom line. I’ve been doing this for 10 years on leases and purchases. It’s worked great every single time.

Then I "read off" the notes. This freaks dealers out, because they are used to people being unprepared.

    The electronic filing fee mentioned in Florida is just a way for the dealer to pad profit. In fact, any fee pads profit. Fees are never required when closing a sale. The only requirements in purchasing a car are the purchase price of the vehicle, sales tax, state license and title costs. That's it.

    Michigan the Filing fee is $24. If you go to the DMV for the plate, you pay $24 for the filing fee (if you don't pay it to the dealership you can take the paperwork to the DMV and get your car next month when you get out of that awful place lol). $16 for a titling fee, again go to the DMV and it's $16.

    Lenders in Florida have to file liens electronically and the title becomes an e-title until the customer has it printed after the loan is paid. Also, Florida has Electronic Filing System where the deal is reviewed and either approved or rejected before it is sent on to Tallahassee. Many are rejected for missing signatures or mileage discrepancies, etc. Whether or not these fees should be added to the sale I don’t know. I do know that electronic filing is part of the process.

    If you really want a specific car. Do ALOT of research on that specific car. Look up what commonly breaks on the car, any recalls, what seems to go out at certain mileage, the cons on the car (like gas mileage is to low) and make sure you're ok with the cons. The reason for this is because when you see the car you're looking for, you can ask the questions of, did the parts that usually go out, did they get fixed already and stuff like that. AND since you REALLY want this specific car, they can't sell you on a different car because you've already determined that you can live with the cons of that car. They can't say "oh the car you want has bad gas mileage but this car doesn't). It doesn't matter because you're ok with the cons. You hold all the power

The reason the price change was because the car had dealer add ons they didn't have on the add like tinted windows, some appearance packages, alarm, and so on. And of course all the add ones were over priced. At the end I thought it was a shady way to get customers inn so I made it very clear and walked out.

    dealers are going to sell every car on their lot regardless to anyone walking out. it's good that you empower yourself but at the end of the day, there's an ass for every seat. every other business in the world can sell or mark up products for what they want and people just pay the asking price or too timid to negotiate, however, they feel all power when it comes to car dealerships. negotiating is a good thing for customers because a few minutes of back and forth can save you hundreds or thousands of dollars. most dealers rush now won't entertain questions over the phone, they just try to set the appointment. give too much information over the phone, chances are, you'll never see that customer because customers pit dealers against each other and also lie about what other dealer give for trade and so forth. it's never a deal over the phone, plus you don't lose what you never had. is the car physically on the lot, yes. come in and make sure you like it, then they'll discuss pricing

    All very solid info for spending your money. Several years ago, on a gm certified vehicle, salesman wanted 75.00 for a "document fee" which few dealerships were asking. I walked away. Another gm certified vehicle I looked at in person, was terrible. Upon viewing from outside i found six flaws, front valance damaged & hanging, fender liner dangling, road rash on three wheels, deep scratches in paint ,etc. The road test was even worse, pulsating brakes, steering constantly pulling left. I walked away also, after telling sales person there was no obvious inspection done to that vehicle.

    My family just bought a used minivan and I ran into many of the things you warned about, the first dealer we went to had a van at the best price I could find. However they had so many fees that they were adding over 1 thousand dollars to the van. I attempted to negotiate the fees away, but they refused. So we walked away and found a better deal at another local dealer. What I realized is that many of the dealers where we live at least place their cars online at amazing prices, but they have such high doc fees and other random fees that they cancel out that price very quickly. I don’t mind no haggle pricing, but I don’t want to pay $700 doc fees and whatever else they can come up with. Long story short, I want to negotiate with a dealer. I have never paid doc fees or the other random stuff dealers add, obviously tax and title are unavoidable. Anyway thank you for your advice, Your educating the public and helping people not get ripped off. You truly are doing the Lords work! Lol! Thank you again.
