I never go to the dealer unless I am ready to buy. I do all my research on the internet and then I walk in and haggle. I hate that part. Anyhow I was driving to our monthly Air Force safety day ( mandatory ) and I drove by the dealer and saw a huge jacked up truck with chrome rims and the works. I put a note in my mind to check that out later in the day. At lunch I rolled up to the dealer and saw it was over 40k and about crapped myself. I have had my dodge intrepid for almost 10 years and I didn't know trucks cost that much now. As I left the lot with my tail between my legs I saw the yellow transformer camaro and I walked up to it just to see it upclose. What caught me again was the 38k sticker price. Thinking I was a poor broke Sgt and out of luck i checked the stickers on the row of camaros and when I walked past the grey one I said " please god let me be able to afford this one" the sticker was 29k and some change with shipping. Well I'll spare you the 3 hours of haggling but after a test drive and turning in my well worn trade in I rolled out the door getting the V-6 Rs with all the goodies in it for 25k plus tax. I thought that was a fair deal. I guess in the end what got me was after I left the lot on the test drive I romped on it a bit and could not beleive it was a v-6. The thing was faster than I expected. I did shoot two picture with my Iphone before I came back and did the circle jerk with the salesman. I looked at the pictures all through lunch and I knew in my heart it would be in my garage at the end of the day.
I enjoyed reading the other stories you guys wrote keep them coming.
