Best thing you can do when negotiating a used car sale is taking a mechanic friend with you. I took my brother with me when i bought my last truck. He's a sleazy little jew bitch when it comes to wheeling and dealing cars. "Oh this oil looks a little brown, that means yadda yadda yadda, that can e expensive to fix." or "Oh, there's some rust showing here, i dunno. Bla bla bla". He wheels and deals on a lot of vehicles, knows what to say, and knows what to look for if you do indeed want to steer away from the purchase all together. You can almost see his eyes light up when he gets someone who knows nothing about mechanics. It's like he knows he's going to take them for a ride before it even starts. Find someone like this and take them with you.
