    Rules of engagement! 1. Get your financing before you go car shopping! 2. Never trade in your vehicle! 3. Focus on the price of the car not the payments! 4. Do not buy any of the extended warranties or any of the extras they pitch to you in financing! 5. Walk away if they will not give you a fair price!

      Advice with begins with "never" is always flawed. For example:
      While a person should always know what financing they can get from their bank or CU, the smart move is to always allow the dealer a chance to arrange financing. They have many sources. They can and often do provide the best rate. Think about it, what is there to lose? Nothing. The buyer can use their bank or the dealer's arranged financing.
      Regarding the trade. In most states the value of the trade is not taxed. For example, in a state with a 6 percent sales tax rate the tax on a new car would be less by this percentage applied to the value of the trade. This can often result in the difference between trading and selling privately being relatively immaterial.

    Last time I bought a vehicle (a mini-van) I did a lot of research online looking at inventory online, looked up how much my car was worth. So when I finally found the van I was most interested in I drove out there stood in front of the van I wanted and waited for the salesman to come out.
    He came out asked me how I was doing and I told him, before he could ask anything, was “this is what I’m here for, can I test drive it”.
    I test drove, loved it, told him it’s what I wanted to go for and... I still love my van and zero buyers remorse.
    So yeah, totally skipped a few of those steps. LOL.

    The last time a car salesman tried to talk to me about "monthly payments" I walked out the door. That was over 17 years ago. I've purchased 2 cars since then. The first was negotiated over the phone. A year after the purchase the Blue Book value of the car was more than I had paid. More recently, I researched online, got quotes from dealers, then went onto the nearest dealer and said "If you will sell me this car for this price, we have a deal." First, they said no. I didn't say anything, then they said yes. A year and a half after the purchase, the Blue Book value is greater than what I paid. Last time paid cash. Do your research online, know what you want, and limit the exposure to the sales people as much as possible. They are not your friends. Not even Chevy Dude.

    • @DSKSeattle
      @DSKSeattle 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I negotiate for a living and I can already imagine a way to sell you a car.
      Your style of car buying works for you because you’re analytical. You like to research the crap out of products that you buy and take forever to make a decision. It could be a camera, a car, a home, a movie, or even dinner. This is what you have to do to feel comfortable about your purchase. In your normal life, you’re probably neat and organized. This also explains why you’ve only bought 2 cars over a 17 year period. A savvy salesman would need to instantly recognize your personality type in order to sell you a car.
      There are also people who make purchase decisions purely on emotions. These peeps will clash with your personality type because they perceive you as slow while you perceive them as reckless.
      To close a sale, you have to make the customer feel like they are winning. And it usually means making them feel like they made the decisions and they got the last word. For analyticals, it means giving them all the data they want to make a decision; for emotional types, it means making them excited about the car. The latter doesn’t care about getting the “best” deal in the entire state as long as it’s a good and fair deal and the car makes him happy. The former needs to think she is getting the best deal in the universe.
      Understanding this will make you a better negotiator. If you know how to hide your personality type, even better.

      ... you need to relax the hours you put into research over a dam car is ridiculous, you think your so cool because you made it so the sales guy could maybe earn $50 ... your not anybody's friend either not even chevydudes friend your just pure selfish and egotistical in the end you cant get those 10 hours of research back. Smh research an hour or so find out the going price for that type of car then try and find one... you get what you pay for... you people think you are so smart, and will get the car that is missing many features and if not remember one thing your never winning if someone sold you a car its because they wanted to... you cant beat the dealer as they know what they paid for the car and you dont... if it's not a good deal dealers wont sell it... they rather wait for the next interested buyer...!

      ^ Tuh! Why should she care about being a car salesmen's friend. You sound salty because she's a well informed consumer that did the proper research and negotiated good deals for herself. While we may not know the specific factory invoice price the dealership paid for a vehicle it is NOT difficult to ascertain the average dealer's cost for your desired vehicle in your specific region. You sound like a bitter car salesman angry because certain consumers refuse to be taken advantage of.

    Do like I did, went to one dealership and got their best price for the vehicle I wanted. I then walked out and called another dealership and quoted them a price that was 800 less. They beat it. I then went to a third dealership and quoted a price 500 less. They agreed to beat it. Then I contact another dealership and told them a price that was 300 less. That salesperson asked me if that included tax and title. It didn’t, but I said yes. The said they could beat the price by 300. I bought a 35500 truck for 27800 out the door after taxes,fees, etc.... and this was before all the big rebates were offered. First vehicle I ever bought that I was completely happy with. Kept it for three years and traded it in and lowered my monthly payment on the new truck by 86 dollars a month because of all the equity.

    My last purchase I had my preapproval in order, hours upon hours of research, and contacted the dealership before heading down. I told them I liked one specific car on the lot. I showed up a few days later with my Tundra. Stepped inside and was immediately greeted simultaneously by three salesmen. I told them I’m looking for X and we’ve already began working out a deal. They said great and got me connected. I then proceeded to tell them my lender will only release the title for $8K. They all argued it, but the most senior (presumably) salesman called their manager who immediately told them to take it. Drove away with a manual transmission.

    Your reference to the shoes reminded me of a time I went with my father in law to purchase a new Cadillac. He was a farmer with considerable assets During the negotiation process he mentioned to the salesman that he was just a poor farmer and he needed to get the car at a significant discount. The salesman looked at his shoes and said “poor farmers don’t wear three hundred dollar shoes. So, you are right, you can sometimes rate a persons wealth by the way they are dressed !

    Well, you are providing information from the perspective that as a salesman you are being an advocate for the buyer with this video, but the reality is that the dealership wants to make the deal that is the most profitable for the dealership while still making a sale. So, how does the consumer get a better deal? 1. Sell that used car on their own. They will get more for it. 2. Fully research the model and features that they want before going to the dealership. 3. Visit the dealership only if you have to for the purpose of test driving to ensure that you want the vehicle and state up front that you are there specifically to get a demo of features/driving experience of your specific model. Walk away when done. 3. Use a third party resource to discover the dealer's cost of the vehicle. 4. Call every dealership in your area and tell them exactly what you are looking for (make, model , year, features). Tell them that you are not coming in to the dealership except to sign the paperwork at the end of the deal. Shop on the last day of the month and at the end of the year if possible. Let the dealership know that if they can beat all the other dealerships you will definitely buy from them today. This lets them know that you know what you want, you are strictly shopping on price at this point and you will move quickly if they are the low price leader. The salesman is there to make money for the dealership, therefore it is in your best interest to limit your exposure to salespeople, sticking to your fact finding when you do interact. This can make life easy for Chevy Dude. All he has to do is to beg his manager to throw every incentive available at your offer so he can log a sale without having to do all these steps in his video.

    I don't go to a dealership until I have done extensive research on my own on the model of car i want and price range. After that I only make 1 initial visit to a dealership only to look for the exact car that I know that I want. I will look at the car and take a test drive and inspect. I will ask what is the lowest they will take. They never tell you that so at that point I exchange information and leave. They always call you back. At that point I only deal over the phone. It keeps me in control. This will go on for a week or so. Once I have gotten the dealership down to the lowest I believe out the door price he will go I will tell them I will buy and will be in within the hour. If the bottom line price is what they quoted then mission is accomplished. Last car I bought I spent about 30 minutes in the dealership.

    John Cho : we are all dumb when we are looking for a vehicle for months, and are worn down and worn out with all the BS. The final step is when you are about to leave with your purchase, key in hand and just want to leave; and completely burned out, and can tend to agree, because it's "just $1200 more? for the paint protection? that's nothing compared to the cost of the vehicle". Add all the rest you inadvertently agreed to and it's a LOT. and we were dumb to agree to even ONE of them. :) also:
    I NEVER trade in a car unless I just want to give it away. Especially on used vehicles, price is adjusted UP to account for any trade in. This can be negotiated back down if not trading in.

    On the subject of trade ins, I was going to see what the dealership would offer on a trade in a 2 year old suv with low miles, and had just been detailed and was absolutely pristine. I am one of those that park way out in the parking lot to avoid door dings. In other words was cleaner and in better shape than it was when I drove it off the lot. I was buying a new loaded pickup truck. The salesman had every book made in his desk drawer (blue book, black book etc). He pulls out one and gives me a lowball price. I asked to look at the book and he has offered me between average and poor condition price. Of course I tell him my car is without a doubt in excellent condition, and the dumb ass tells me "we never give clean for a trade in." I then ask him, why the hell do you pull out the book to start with if you don't use it? He just looks at me. So, I decided to sell it myself. That is the typical treatment you get with the car dealerships in South Carolina.

Luckily my cousin offered me $300 for it (he owned the car before me and thinks he can fix it) and the dealership said thats fine as long as i pay the $250 to make up for the trade in taken off the price.

    beware of the money man or finance office (the best kept secret of all car lots) i don't know why this guy is not telling us this info. the finance officer is task with pulling in all extra money that the sales person could not get for the dealership. i love this salesperson's honesty but i guess it's because he is a salesman and not the true money guy at the dealership, i think he knows better and ought to tell us as followers and patrons but has chosen not to at this point. what does the finance guy always ask, hey "do you need this, this thing has a paint cover coat(you have to pay for this), do you need this. how about gap insurance, or this or that or "hey, the fabric on this vehicle needs our fabric protection at a cost of $300 when a can of scotchguard costs $10 bucks per can or your car rims need insurance or what about this and that the finance officer or money man is the smartest guy at the car lot and will bust your brain after the salesman rings you in and gets you ready for the kill at all car lots that i have ever visted. great luck with your channel and God Bless from Texarkana Arkansas. to learn more about car lot tricks. th-cam.com/video/WHDMLco9N8w/w-d-xo.html

    I also have good advice for the sales people. Do not just try desperately to make that initial sale, and be content with that. Instead, you will do much better in the long run if you work on a true long range customer acquisition program. It eventually will result in that sale you wanted so badly in the first place, in retention of a trusting customer, in referrals with more possible permanent customers, etc., etc. All building a great reference for you, and turning a sleazy salesperson into a valued advisor.

    just bought a chevy suv with 1st payment down and $200 a month.... When a sales guy tells you he is all about the truth keep looking for a salesman rule #1 of a consumer. I work for a dealership and have 20 years experience and if you can honestly say a 500-600 lease payment for a silverado is ok.... you live in a mansion if anyone buys that bs. Tell the sales person what you want and what you will pay for it and if they don't want to do that deal they are begging for that day they will be calling the rest of the week with the number you want. You really have to push and be willing to walk.

Now you're not going to get a 19 Silverado for $200. I didn't work at this dealer also. The equinox started at a lease of 300 before any paper work was started with my credit. Do you really feel like the dealership/gm would be ok with 1 dealer saying "we are the honest dealer" leaving the rest to be lying? This is another way of getting you in THEIR dealer and feel free to pay 400 for a 200 ride. I put 1st month payment and taxes into the down payment and that was all and A plan.

Just tell them they can work the numbers any way they want as long as they meet your out the door amount. Have your financing in place. Do not buy a warranty or service plan. Stick to your guns. If they come back higher then walk. Just make sure you are offering the dealership a fair deal as well and be confident in your numbers. No dealer will take a low ball offer. They have to make money also just not all on you. Only buy at the end of the month when incentives\quotas need to be made to get best deal.

    I have been in the business for over 20 years. Including being a Pre-Owned Sales Manager for a very large luxury dealer. What Mike is saying is misleading. From what a professional salesperson is thinking to the way numbers are presented. Mike says "tricking the consumer into buying", this is crap. After selling over 5500 vehicles my perspective is every consumer 1) has specific needs and wants (this is why they are at the dealer), 2) Wants to feel good about the purchase (meaning they are comfortable with the monies and the vehicle they are purchasing), 3) wants their time to be respected. Very rarely is anyone purchasing (or leasing) a vehicle unless they want to, this is not tricking anyone into any thing.
    This video also tells me, the dealership Mike works for uses a specific software called eLeads to produce the document shown at 16:36 in the video. This document is very similar to a 4 square (which I do not use). The info given if presented properly will be the same in both documents, just in a different format. For the record I also prefer the format Mike's dealership uses for clarity. I could go on but I will just say one more thing. What Mike is implying by saying automobile salespeople are trying to trick you is "go see Mike", other dealerships are shady. This is unprofessional and irresponsible. I will admit that there are a lot of inexperienced salespeople in this business and some dealers are not as straight forward as others.
