I might end up doing that and the salesman even mentioned that, so I'll still get the better price for financing with them but then pay it off and have a lower rate through my credit union. The difference in interest for me wouldn't be nearly as much as you, according to the loan calculator I...
Yeah, we are getting better dealer discounts than you guys up North but it still seems there isn't much room for negotiating beyond that. Which is ok with me, like I said in my original post the whole car buying experience is really anxiety inducing for me.
Thanks again everyone for your advice and info about pricing. I haven't signed the papers yet but have a Maverick sitting on a lot in Dallas with my name on it! I didn't get my overly optimistic price but was able to stay right at my limit, the MSRP on it was $31,010 and it had a pretty good...
Thanks, this is exactly the kind of info I need to hear. I'll keep looking until I find the right one at the right price and just ask if they can do a little better but won't feel like I need to play the haggling games (which is a relief) since it sounds like there isn't much wiggle room to...
Yeah they're not completely out of the question, I just haven't exhausted all the options closer to me yet. I also have family in Las Vegas who would probably buy my plane ticket out there if I told them I'd visit, so that's another option.
That's great to hear you were able to get such a good deal! What was the $750 rebate for? I saw on one dealerships website that they might have discounts for things like Costco and credit union members, of which I'm both, but I don't know if that was just them or if that's an all of Ford thing...
Thanks! The one thing I'm really good at is doing (too much) research! Due to my brain I have a really hard time going into most situations without as much info as I can get.
After my last post I did the same as you and did another search, though I've only been going about 250 miles out from...
I figured that might be asking too much which is why I am willing to go up to $30,000 OTD if I need to and if it's got a few upgrades that are of interest to me. I'm pretty set on a 2024 and I was a little flexible on the XL vs XLT, but I've only found a few XL hybrids available within 750 miles...
Hi everyone,
A quick little bit about me. I'm on the autism spectrum, introverted, have social anxiety, hate being "sold" to, and not very good or comfortable with negotiating let alone playing hardball. Going to a dealership is something I dread, I hate the whole back and forth let me go talk...
