Replying to: gwnorth (May 02, 2008 6:23 pm) 1) Their "total inv" doesn't even add up correctly. It is $110 too high. 2) TDA? for $560 ???? This is probably something like "Toyota Dealer Adjustment," and would more accurately be labeled "dealer greed." Don't pay it. 3) They're charging you for gas ???? That alone should land them in jail. 4) Dealer holdback ($799) and Whsl Financial Res ($399) should be DEDUCTED from the invoice, not added to it. That's a $2398 swing the other way right there. 5) They should also be $500 UNDER invoice, not over. Your offer on this vehicle should be $36,674 plus tax, title and license and not a penny more. If they don't like it, RUN !! BTW, ask the dealer what he was going to do with the $3508 he was going to over-charge you....betcha his golf club membership is due this month... |
