And your point is?

How on earth does Grangers business model relate to people "knowing what they want" means they are at greater risk of being taken advantage of?

Because you claim Granger are an outlier? If you'd read the whole thread, you'd see I also have done the same thing whilst buying numerous BMW's, so Granger, and other Ford and GMC dealers who offer a similar service aren't the only ones....

Truth is, people who know what they want often find a way to get it.

If you want to debate the merits of the argument I actually said I disagreed with, then go right ahead...
?? whatever you say man. You’re the best and the rest of us are just schmucks. If only we were as savvy as youuuu.

(Also I did read the whole thread. If you would have youd see countless other people getting laughed out the door when showing their local dealerships grangers quote.)

Majority of people who aren’t willing to compromise on features end up paying over sticker because they have no leverage. Pay or go away. ??

Well I don't know you and only you'd know if you are a schmuck or not so I'll leave that one to you....

The 'countless' other people you are referring to clearly know what they want, and are finding a way to get it.... kind of self evident.....

April 2023 I was truck shopping. One of several local dealers with the largest selection was still adding premium "market adjustment" on top of all F-150 2022 and 2023 models. Plus bunch of add-on stuff from Ziebart for $2k on every vehicle. Other dealers listed the discounts on window sticker like it was their own special deal. All this lead to me searching more online and found my used 2021 with exactly what I wanted on it 3 hours from home. Got the deal I wanted but local dealers would have my business on a new purchase if not playing silly games. (One local dealer will also sell at invoice on custom orders, but the used deal was best for me.)

Once you find a dealer to sell at invoice the discount offered by Granger is not always worth it. It would have saved me less than $2k for the hassle of having to go out of state. Definitely shop around because every state should have a dealer selling at invoice and you might talk them lower.

You don't seem to give people much credit for being able to find what they want.... see post #31, #35 and #39 and that's just in this thread......

I got my Raptor at real MSRP many months ago, would assume F150 would be discount by this dealer. Salesman is really easy to deal with, let me know how it goes. I get nothing for this referrer. I drove 4 hours to pick up my Raptor. Local dealers were adding 10K to MSRP.
