  Just had to replace a car with 244k on it. Walked into the dealer and was greeted by a 20 something, ill informed "salesman". I held up my phone and started a 30 minute timer after I told him exactly which car he had that I wanted to purchase. Told him I was leaving when the alarm sounded either way. He immediately turned me over to a "manager" who finalized the deal. And when they say "we don't negotiate on price", that's bullshit; they will. This experience just proves that ALL car dealers are lying scum.

  At <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmtDYl31vec&amp;t=1192">19:52</a>, I&apos;m 76 and you better believe I&apos;d walk out.. The last car I bought, at age 70, the dealer screwed around with a pile of bullshit fees/addons on the OTD price making it over $10K and I repeated the fact I had $8,600 to pay for a car advertised at $6,900 and would NOT be financing any extra. They said &quot;we can&apos;t go that low&quot;.. So I walked.. Barely made it to my rental before the salesmanager caught up with me and asked if they came down to $8,600 out the door would I buy it today?&quot; I said yes.. You gotta walk if they play games with you...

  i had one clown, sales mgr in Leesburg Florida tell me that he could buy my limited production, high performance vehicle ( that dealers only get 1 or 2 per year to sell new) at the auction for way less than my price. &nbsp;<br>i told him to go to his office, grab his checkbook, and go drive to the auction to buy it there. &nbsp;<br>then , i told him that he was full of <b>**</b> to his face. &nbsp; got up and left. &nbsp;Always your best move is to leave. &nbsp; 🤡👺🤡💩💨🙆💥🤣🤣🤣

  The dealership wants people to trade in their cars. What a rip-off this is. They try to make people think they&apos;re getting a good deal while they are playing with the numbers to fool people. IF YOUR CAR IS IN GOOD CONDITION, SELL IT YOURSELF.

  The auto industry has been ripping off the consumer for YEARS. Crap cars. Shady sales tactics. Ridiculous prices. Terrible service. Absurd markups. Unwanted &quot;extras&quot;. Can&apos;t buy direct. Constant recalls. Personally, if the industry and dealers fold, that would be fine with me.

  I was hit with a very lowball offer on my trade. I told the guy his offer was insulting and walked away.. He chased after me all the way to my car, telling me that he could maybe give me a little more but had to get approval from his manager. I am currently researching new vehicles and am considering 5 different brands. I am doing my homework, and am doing as much as possible online, and all of the Dealerships keep pushing for me to come in to talk more, and to appraise my trade in person, take a test drive, etc. All have asked what monthly payment I am looking for, and bc of these videos and tips, I told them that my focus is out the door price, and I have an approval in place with my bank so my monthly payment is not relevant to them.

  Great content. Before I &nbsp; went to car max they I did everything on line even the trade-in, they ask how many miles, told them 80,000, any accidents said yes any problems with the engine, no. OK they quoted me 7.000 trade-in for it. I took a picture of that. Then when I went there they were locked in on the trade. All we had to do is test drive the 2023 jeep compas latitude hydro blue with 12,700 miles on it. &nbsp;Out the door with TTL and extended warranty and gap insurance and tire protection at a 5.9% interest 20.000. I almost forgot my accent trade-in had a transmission problem at a high speed.

  Yes! I was a UCM for Luther in Minneapolis, Carmax, Carvanna, and Walser run a 1 price, you work for to try to make 2 or 3 hundred dollars on a trade. Plus KBB is under auction &nbsp;runs, It is hard to steal trades anymore. Especially in a large market.
