Long day at the dealership...

looks like he just picked it up today, and said this was a pre mod pic

 

I thought he was going to have the dealer put the new stock tires on his old truck and put his old combo on his new truck. That's what I had dealership do as part f te deal when I traded my truck in.

 

Just picked it up guys...

Monday morning is swap time due to TPMS programming.

 

Congrats on the new truck!

 

love the front end on the new ones.....nice job

 

18% off the MSRP? And the dealer still made a profit?

 

The only thing I can imagine is they are going to try and make it up on my trade in due to the 5100's and accessories I left (DVD, TINT)??

 

don't forget cheap gas

 

Wait? So you paid 26K after trading in the 2008 TRD?

 

nice!!! i spent about 7 or 8 hours at the dealership when i bought my 2012 because they had to go pick up the truck from another dealership near by....negotiating took about 1 hour...it was worth it though lol

 

I start my dealings with the dealers at 30% off. My target is 25% off and that is pretty much where I have landed on the last 3 cars I've bought. The process takes about a month usually. I have a system that I learned back in 86. The last car was stickered at 21K and I drove it home for 16.5K. The dealer's profit is nowhere near what they allow the public to think. None of them lost money on me, but all of them were glad to see me go

 

Yea the dealerships are so full of crap it's ridiculous.

 

Lol!

I put two dealerships against each other and just told them i could care less if i got the new truck or not. First night took was typical and then it was 7 days to locate and deliver the truck i wanted. Overall this is a good transaction.

I have one person at the dealership i will deal with and thats it.

 

The truck that they found was in the showroom so it had the skid plate and bed extender...they were trying to charge me for that and the protection plan....I told them I want all of the extras for free or you can take them off of the truck. They were trying to make all kinds of offers when i finally told them I don't need to buy the truck because my car runs fine....that's when they were like okay we'll just throw the extras in for free lol...plus it was like 730pm on a Saturday and I'm sure they all wanted to go home at that point.

 

Wheels swapped, TPMS reprogrammed...

Time for tint!

 

Nice truck, but I don't spend more than an hour tops when negotiating a deal. Actually, I don't really negotiate. I walk in with a price and if the salesperson comes back with a different number I thank them for their time and leave. Sometimes I make it down to my car but most of the time I don't.

The only car that I couldn't get them to budge on was a '09 Mustang GT that Ford was offering 0%/60 months financing on. I went through three dealerships before I just bagged the whole Mustang idea and started looking at Tacomas.

 

I tried that with marriage a few times, I was single till 32...
