I bought a new car a few years ago. When I went and looked, there was a sticker in the window with the "dealer markup" of $1k. My wife made some comment about that being what dealers do in the face of demand. I just laughed and said I certainly wasn't paying that. I ground them pretty fine before I got a price I liked. It was later in the 2016 model year, so I know that the dealer had gotten some money from the manufacturer for vehicles still in inventory. I'm a real skinflint, even though I have some money now (that's how I got it, that and the amount of overtime that I worked). It's what's keeping me from buying another truck. Some of the rolling ash cans that people take as B-J material are amazing.
