Dealers lots empty of customers yet they won't budge on prices, both were $2000 above retail. This is for a used car. They always try to sneak this "dealer's fee" in which is nothing more than extra profit for them.
Finally I tell them to go to small buy here pay here lots and maybe we can find a small dealer that needs cash fast and is willing to come down. Finally find just such a small dealer, got a 2003 Jeep Cherokee limited v8 for $7000 including dealer fees. LOL. God I hate car shopping, I would rather get a root canal than shop for a car. I fucking hate it.

I have bought many, many many cars of all price ranges. NEVER pay retail. Once you find the car you like, look it up on KBB and offer them only the private party listing price that way when you negotiate, you can go up a little if need be. Car dealers are hurting just as most businesses are so you can work a good deal. Also, finance it for an even better deal as dealers get paid for financing. Then you can just pay if off the first month if you want to.
