    It's tough sometimes. It also depends on the vehicle in question.

    A lot of dealerships have an easier time with moving prices/payments on a used vehicle and still making their money. A new vehicle is pretty cut and dry because those dealerships list everything on the window in the buyer's guide and let you know up from the MSRP and such.

    If a salesman can sense that you need him more than they need you, then you're going to have a hard time budging on anything.

    Just go in with a positive attitude and don't be an *******. Also don't be too eager to make a deal on the same day. I've watched my dad walk out in a dealership because he didn't like what was going on and they called him back wanting to compromise.

    It's tough to find an honest sales person these days. My mom's last two vehicles were both from the same Toyota dealership and the same sales person. My dad found someone he liked and went back there when he was looking to get my mom out of her Corolla and into a Camry.

      From now on, I'm strictly dealing with internet salesmen. We'll do all the negotiations through e-mail and when we agree upon terms, I'll go to the dealer and sign the paperwork. Buying a car should not take hours upon hours. I vowed not to ever go that route again.

        This is the route I have been taking. Going through internet or fleet sales. That way I am not stuck in the dealership all day.

        At this point if I stick with the Infiniti's I am pretty set. I've owned 4 of them in the past 5 years, and they pretty much just give me what I want.. Next year or late this year, I am probably going with an Audi S5 and I will do exactly what you did, internet/fleet sales.

          Found out quite the news today about my chevelle, i thought my old mechanic put 4.10 gears n for me, turns out after getting the original gears back in from my new mechanic they were 5.22's, if you dont know much about gears, race cars in the 1/8 mile have 4.56, i had even higher gears, was RIDICULOUS on the freeway. Very happy to go get it tomorrow and actually get decent mileage 16-18 instead of about 6. Hoping i sell it soon

              I'm looking at buying the 2013 Land Rover LR4. I love the design, however I'm concerned about the 4 rating it got for fuel consumption. My father keeps saying buy the F150, he's a Ford guy. We are also buying the new Ford Escape for my wife, but she starting to want a Jeep Cherokee. I don't know. We will see. My question is if not the Land Rover, what would you guys suggest?

                  HEHEHE well if i were you the first thing i would do is go to Americanmuscle.com, its an awesome place if you have a Mustang, everything MUSTANG! awesome site, anyway i'd order a CAI as well as a tuner, the tuner brings all the mods together and creates very impressive gains, and whenever you do another mod to your car, just send the tuner team a email and they'll create the tune and you can then upload it to your car and get the most horsepower out of the upgrade.

                    Current Driver:

                    1990 Silverado. My dad has had it since it was brand new and made a lot of changes to it over the years.

                    My dad has been complaining about it never being driven, so I'm going to drive it for a few weeks. We recently rebuilt almost the entire engine because when he was working his old job, he never drove it.

                    and you can see my poor SS Cobalt looking all pitiful in the background.. lol.

                      Dad surprised me with this, an 06 Ridgeline. It's technically his but I'm going to be driving it and absolutely love it. And i usually hate trucks.

                          It looks funny in a way, like something is missing from it. Almost has that toy look about it. But that is nice though, now you can you bang all kinds of chicks in the bed of the truck.

                            Yeah, saying it's a truck is using "truck" loosely. It's like a lifted Altima with a bed. But I love it, it just "fits" with me. I'm 6'6", so cars present a bit of an issue for me. I don't like trucks, but I'm not crawling in and out of a Miata. This is perfect.

                            And the gas mileage...it's better than I expected.

                                I am not usually a Range Rover fan, but I have to admit the Evoque is appealing to me, and at that mid 40K pricepoint it's even more appealing.
