That has to be the most ridiculous analogy that I've read in a long time! Yep, that's right. I go into the local grocery store and a salesman walks up to me and says, "Hey, you'd look great with that 2% milk! That's a popular brand! You know, the assistant dairy manager that's on today is in a really good mood. I'll bet he'll work with us. I'll see what I can do for you. Are you willing to buy today?"

Anyone who pays sticker price for any vehicle is an absolute idiot, especially in these economic times. Like most, I actually research what each dealer makes on each vehicle I buy before I walk in the dealership door and, therefore, I have never paid near MSRP.

Ya see, there's this thing called the "Internet" and if you do some researchin' you can learn things about cars such as invoice price, rebates, incentives, dealer hold back, special financing, etc. Big words, I know, but these are all good things that will help you in the future actually get a good deal. Apparently you've been walking in to the dealership, looking at the sticker, drooling, and then asking if you can add to the sticker price things like poly-glycoat, rustproofing, Scotchguard, sound-deadening, and the extended warranty that lasts forever. I'm sure I've seen you there next to the salesman with the huge grin.

Please don't lecture me on how the sales process of a new vehicle works. I have managed a new vehicle dealership for 5 years. I have forgotten more about selling a vehicle then you will ever learn. But keep "researching" all your rebates/incentive/H/B/dealer cash and all that, that way when you come into a store the sales staff can run the other way saying "I am not dealing with that d***, he thinks your supposed to sell vehicles for nothing"
