Im in the market to buy a new pickup. Ive looked at everything I can study and have settled in on what I want. Ive used the build sites to choose options and what not. Now it time to actually talk to a dealer.
Ive never bought online or over the phone and that seems like a way to go so I dont have to deal with smarmy salesmen and sales managers and deal closers bullshit.
Looking for any experiences good, bad, what to do not do? It will have to be ordered as I have not found any in inventory anywhere that is what I want
Its a GMC 1/2 ton loaded up outfit, no financing, will pay cash [Reply]
I've had great experiences with Cable Dahmer dealers. We've bought 3 vehicles from the Chevy dealer on 103rd, 1 from the Chevy dealer on Noland road and recently bought a new Kia from their location in Lee's Summit. Just great customer service every time.
They have GMC dealers near 104th and State Line and on Noland Road. [Reply]

I may call them, they did a warranty job on wifes Yukon and were actually pretty nice. I just dont want to start the sit down and lets see what we can do game.... [Reply]
I bought new and paid cash 1 time back when I was in colllege. Long story but I had the cash and needed a dependable vehicle. I looked like the typical college student with no money. Salesman played the what can we do game and finally got to where the price was good and they were going to make most their money on the financing (they thought). When they asked how I wanted to finance I said one payment today. The SOB called my bank. When he came back all of a sudden it yessir, no sir, can I get you something to drink sir. I think my hometown bank told that him I had the money to buy anything on the lot and then some even though I didn't. I still chuckle about it. [Reply]

Paying cash won't get you a better deal. Been there, tried that.
Where ever you go, be straight forward with them from the start. You don't want to be upsold on anything, give me the price out the door, and tell them that other dealers are quoting, too.
That last part is key.

I guess that's how long it takes the dealership to get their rip for selling the financing. [Reply]
Tell the first salesman that approaches you that you don't negotiate with faggots and to get you somebody that knows what they're doing.
When the second salesman comes up tell him you didn't know this place was a gay bar and to get you somebody that doesn't suck dick to sell you a truck.
By this time they'll probably ask you to leave but you'll have at least upset a couple of car salesman and made the world a better place. [Reply]
I can’t wait for the dam to break and carmakers sell directly to consumers. Fuck dealerships and fuck salespeople.
I bought a used truck through an online service a few weeks ago with a wire transfer. No negotiation, no bullshit. I am fully aware of the one issue with this service being title acquisition, but I got several forms of contact with the transfer agent and it’s on the way.
