    Bro. KILLLLLLLLED it today at the dealer. He about lost his mind when we said we arent paying the doc fee. We had been there hours. He said there was "no way...every dealer has a doc fee...." I said it's a nothing fee, take it off or we leave. He snatched the paper off the table and we got up and drove way. He called within 2 minutes....we went back and he said we would split it. I said no we wont. And he took it off. He was big mad

      Except the fact that new cars are harder and harder to get. Often you can go somewhere else, but have to compromise on color or trim or something else. We sell at msrp, and do not have a bunch of hidden fees, but if someone comes in on a new car and doesn’t want to pay the price of the car, we may move just a bit, but for the most part it’s “see ya later”.! Someone else will buy it. And there are ways around the survey too. A lot of the tips either aren’t true anymore or never were. Especially not in smaller areas

For him to say that his dealership works in tip top conditioning and they are not ripping off anyone is BS! The chair blocking the nitrogen machine is a joke to say they don't use it, give me break! His $300 document fee IS a ripoff and if you stand your ground as a consumer, you should walk out of the dealership WITHOUT that fee on your paperwork! I am surprised he didn't get fired for doing this video while he was working!

    Dude. Thanks. My son is serving on active duty in the Army and is wanting to purchase a new vehicle. Your tips have saved him and I from making a $10k dollar mistake. The local dealership that “caters to active duty soldiers” added a $5k fee to the msrp because of a “shortage of inventory”, another $1800 fee for dealer prep, another $800 for processing fee, $899 for “ceramic coating”, $999 for nitrogen filled tires. All of this while advertising on Car Gurus for 10k below MSRP with manufacturer rebates. Once the buyers order was presented, I began to ask questions about each fee and what that fee was for. This sent both the sales person and his manager into a scramble. The dealership refused to negotiation beyond removing the nitrogen and the ceramic coating. I then presented them with the Car Gurus snapshot that even showed them the exact vin number for the truck we wanted to purchase to justify what my requests were to remove the additional fees. Needless to say we walked away from the deal. Dealerships are on every corner in towns surrounding our military bases and it’s sad to feel that they are almost bordering on predatory lending to our service men and women. So I wanted to say thank you for the content you provide that allowed me to know when to walk away. Greatly appreciate what you’re doing.

      If you mean @ 12:06, that’s like making sure to meet manufacturer standards. So it’s like a normal survey you take where you give your opinion on things. They want to make sure they’re meeting the standards of the car makers and such so they have positive responses/scores on their surveys, which is good for their reputation and thus makes more money. If something else you were referring to, I don’t know where in the video you mean. :)

    Hey man, I really appreciate this video. It was extremely helpful as I was a first-time car buyer. I just bought a car at a Toyota Dealership two weeks ago and they tried to sell me everything that you mentioned in this video. I told them exactly what you said. They then walked me over to a car and tried to show me "See this car has tint, it has this door handle protection, and the nitrogen aired tires which isn't free for the dealership. This is stuff our customers usually want so we put it on every car and therefore that's what those fees are."
    I respectfully told them "I truly believe that should be included with the cost of the car, and therefore I won't be able to make a deal unless those fees are taken off."
    He then said "Well let me go talk with the owner of the dealership and see if I can do that."
    He came back within 5 minutes and said "You're lucky, we got them taken off for you."
    This video seriously saved me 4,000 dollars off these crazy bogus fees! Yes seriously, FOUR THOUSAND! I could tell by the look on their faces that they weren't happy with it, but I guess that's how I know I truly got the best deal I could've gotten. So thank you so very much for this video!

      I always ask to take it for a solo test drive, and the first thing I do is take it to the local mechanic and ask them to do a through top to bottom, inside and out check (even if I have to pay the mechanic yo do it) and have them give me an itemized list (on paper) of what's wrong with it, that way I know if I want to deal with that issue (or those issues) and it helps me look up an appropriate value of what the vehicle is really worth... for example, my little brother was looking at a car we found what he wanted, took it for a solo drive and took it to the mechanic, we found out it had been in an accident on the passenger side, around the back door, the frame was bent even though the outside of the car looked fine, we took the car back and told them it wasn't what we were looking for (since it really wasn't after finding that out), we also paid the mechanic $50 for looking at it because we told them we were planing to buy it if it was worth it, and apparently the mechanic normally charges $150 for the check we had done, but because we were only checking to see if it was worth buying it, the mechanic gave us a discount (please note, not all shops will give a discount for that)

      So let’s say based on the scenario you showed us is legit. My trade in VS the negotiated price with all the snake oil taken out leaves me with a 3500 -4000 balance. Now I’ve not told them whether I’m gonna finance or pay cash no matter how many times they’ve asked me. Instead of financing let’s say 4000 can I use my visa or AMEX to pay that balance as if I were giving them 4000 cash. Perhaps I get some points or some card benefits from purchases and that how I wanna pay and walk out with the keys. Also if there’s no balance then there’s no reason to run my credit correct because even though I’m in the finance office and I’ve now said I’m paying off the balance after all number have been agreed to by both parties.

I never use any other brand but Michelin defender with 80K warranty. I was selling cheap chiese tires because we could mark up more. Paid 90% in overhead.

    My wife and I are going to attempt to trade her car in next week. I'm glad you brought up NADA. I completely forgot about them. I was going to ask a lower price for our car, but since you brought up the NADA, I valued our car on there and KBB. I'm averaging the average amount for the NADA, and the low end amount for KBB, and that's what I'm asking for our car. Given how much I've seen them priced on the internet at other dealers, I don't think what I'm asking is too much. The dealer we're going to, with a little cosmetic work, will make a nice profit on it.
    Something else I wanted to add, is I bought a truck in 2018. The price was $19795. I asked the salesperson if they could come down on their price. He went into this whole schpeal that "Well, we've had people come in from New York and Utah to buy our vehicles because of the prices because we have the lowest prices. We're confident this is the price." I pulled out my cell phone and responded "I screenshot this truck last night at another dealership about 30 miles away. It has less miles than yours for a lower price. If you can't come close to it, I'll drive over to that dealership, and buy that truck today for that price." They went from $19795 to $17500. Knowledge is power.

Just have them give you numbers and say you'll consider it, that you have a couple of other options to look at and then they'll call you and give you a better price. Another trick is, have someone drive you there. Don't have them look at your car. I got more for my car than it was worth by doing an online appraisal.

Also, when you walk in the door tell them right off the bat that you want the lowest rate they can offer or you will walk out. (Just make sure you have places to go.) I got an awesome deal and don’t even worry about the woman thing. Today it doesn’t matter. Women can be even tougher than men these days when buying a car.

    I own a small used car dealership in NW WI. I can't believe that all these fees even exist! We, my husband and I, started our dealership to provide a buying experience we wish we had been able to get from other dealers. We are only 2 years young and we are slowly growing on that concept. I am glad to see other dealerships, bigger dealerships use honorable practices to treat people right. My hat off to you, sir!

He was sketched out and told them to make sure but they kept trying to convince him to buy.

      It was opposite for me. They told me I can get a 6.9% through their lender. I was approved by my bank for 7.9%. So I took their offer. Approximately 10 days later, they said I was denied for 6.9% and the best they could get me was 10.9%. At that point, the offer from my bank expired. So I told them that won't fly since it upped my monthly by appx $85. So the only option was to return the vehicle, where they tried charging me a "restocking fee" of some sort of $900+. I eventually got it waived after giving them hell, but I'll never do business with them again.

      @jamaicasfinest8 3 роки тому +6

      Hi Linda the main difference is a credit unions have lower interest rates compared to commercial banks because they are not for profit organizations. Other than low loan interest rates (auto, personal, mortgages) a credit union operates pretty much like a commercial bank. Go to a credit union if you are looking for a loan but for your regular banking needs definitely go commercial because they are more customer service friendly.

    I totally disagree with you on the dealer processing fee! I was buying a used F150 and the dealer wanted $200 "documentation fee" explaining that it paid for the girls in the office to process the paperwork. I asked how many cars per month this dealer typically sells and the reply was 200-225. I asked him who makes $45,000 a month in the back office? (225 x $200). I got it reduced, but they refused to eliminate it. I believe "dealer processing fees" or "doc fees" are a complete rip off!

      They are a big rip-off. They will tell you the state mandates them. Yes, sales, tax, registration, and title fees are set by the state and are non-negotiable, but the processing of those things - submitting forms and such is negotiable. Why should a buyer pay fees for things that should be covered in a workers regular salary? No one pays a bricklayer a course-laying fee. it's his job to lay bricks. The cost of the car can also be reduced to eliminate the dealer processing fees.

      Well you might want to re think that thought, wait at least another year. GM is not only giving steep discounts and offers due to low sales from the covid19 which crippled most Brands equally but GM is really producing low quality vehicles these days like PONTIAC was doing right b4 the end of that business. Most parts are being produced in Mexico not only by cheaper labor but also by cheaper materials. You would think a smarter company would pass the savings on but GM is not. We all understand business is all about making money so on the labor savings that's business but on the cheaper materials that's just plain foolishness in my opinion. most people with any sense want quality merchandise and with the costs of new vehicles being what they are we should be getting quality. I personally have been a Chevy man my whole life but refuse to buy their new junk. The truck line is really experiencing a lot of mechanical issues and there is no reason for it other than corporate greed.I am not talking about a tire blow out either, I'm talking about motor and rear axle failures.

I told my wife, as we sat down at the F&I guys desk, to watch for the 4 box trick and understand that I was not going to listen or watch it. Mine was a cash deal so when all of his tactics failed, he took out a piece of paper and drew the 4 boxes and began with his extended warranty hype. My wife looked at me and said "The Boxes" and we both laughed. I cut him short and our time in his office was less than 5 mins. By the way, I used your strategy on my trade in too. Cut the deal on the car then deal with the trade in. Thanks to you, I saved a ton of $$$.

    Thanks for your video!
    But, why go through all this ?
    I went out and test drove and researched and found what I wanted was a new Mazda.
    I then emailed 12 Mazda dealerships in a radius of 150 miles of Charlotte NC where I live and asked for a price from each one of them including fees and taxes for an “out the door” offering price. I gave them all the exact make and model same trim level, I wanted.
    After a few days I received all 12 quotes.
    I then sent the lowest quote to the other 11 dealers. They all responded back with lower quotes and I took that lowest quote and sent back out again to them. I went through this for about two weeks and at the end of that time there was only one dealership out of the 12 that was willing to go the lowest because the other 11 walked away from that price. This is how I know I have gotten as close to what they have paid for the vehicle as they’re willing to sell it for out of 12 dealers.
    It worked like a charm and I saved thousands.
    Best,
    Mark

      He was honest about most of the fees, but blatantly dishonest about the "processing fee". They pay one (or maybe a few) college students $10-$12/hr to do 30 minutes worth of work. Maybe an additional $15 if they overnight the title to the DMV. Either get the dealership to deduct the entire fee off the price of the vehicle, get the fee down to no more than $50, or walk away.

      There is wisdom in your comment. I bought a used Scion iM last month. I knew most of these and asked them to remove the Dealer prep fee ($400), destination charge ($850) and advertising fee ($250). The first dealership gave me some BS about it being against the law to remove them. I walked. (And reported this to the BBB) The second hemmed and hawed but removed them. (They also didn't have the advertising fee) Having a check from my bank for the full purchase price helped.

      They don't want to sell you a car, they want to sell you financing, extended warranties, and service plans, which of course this guy doesn't talk about. Notice how on that sales sheet he doesn't include the actual interest rate? Do whatever you can to get the original price of the car down first, and give up some interest and extend the term if you have too. That will also bring your taxes down. Then once the deal is done, go online and refinance the loan in the 2-3$ range if you have decent credit.

      I was at a dealer in the finance office buying a car that I didn’t really LOVE. I liked it, but it wasn’t the car I went in to get but since I was in the “buying mood” I was in the process of signing papers that I was about to settle on.
      Luckily, they offered me an extended warranty. Earlier in the evening, the salesman was touting this new “free lifetime warranty” that comes with every car. So.. with this “free” warranty, why would I need this extended warranty? I asked them to furnish the printed version of the included warranty several times and that never happened. I didn’t feel good about the deal, so we walked out. As far as they were concerned I would be back the next day to finalize the deal. Little did they know that the next day I’d be at another dealer, standing in front of a newer, lower mile better version of the car and for less money. All of this with an included prepaid extended warranty that was bought by the original owner and it was transferable.
      For me, being willing to walk away from a deal that wasn’t right bought me enough time to buy the right car.
