I think franchise laws are bull&&$#, but what can we do? Nothing. Neither can GM (unless they want to go to court).

Only thing you can do, like he said, is tell any dealer that tries to mark it up or charge you any fee beyond sticker and tax/title to shove it.

I am going to bring the price guide with me to the dealer and say "hey, I know what employee price and invoice is. Why would I pay even sticker for this car?"

I don't know how long it will take me, but I'll wait untill I find someone who will sell it for less than sticker.

Good stuff thanks. I know about general anti-trust laws and the like, but nothing of franchise law. I will not pay over sticker and when I do buy I will not patronize the dealers asking obscene amounts over sticker, even if it means a drive out of town.
