Also, my credit union has a similar auto buying program and a quick Google of credit union auto buying program shows it seems to be pretty common. Most of them seem to use a 3rd party company called TrueCar it looks like.

Other good resources for locating cars are cars.com, and truecar.com – I think both allow you to do a ‘nationwide’ search. If you couple this with the spreadsheet, what you’ll see is, not all Toyota dealers are equal, with some dealers getting considerably more inventory than others for certain car types.

Makes sense, I probably wouldn’t have a membership if I were you. I agree that most of it is not worth the squeeze. They offered dealership deals for new cars and when I looked into it, it was $45 off a 30k car. I got better pricing using truecar.com for free.

Tips:
Check out truecar.com and cars.com – find the pockets of dealers that have and are getting inventory- Ask dealers if they are an “MSRP” dealer.
Be willing to buy out of state if necessary – a $250 plane ticket and $150 hotel stay definitely beat paying your local dealer an extra 5k.
If you go to your local dealer, be armed with this information – you may be surprised just how quickly the price drops locally.

I pulled another cars version of this in to a database, did a group by query to see what dealers had the most inventory, then got on cars.com and truecar.com and started calling – first question was usually “Do you sell out of state” followed by “Are you an MSRP dealer”.

Almost no one is gonna provide accurate numbers because thats just how the industry is. Its basically buying a used car before there was internet and truecar.com You need do your own homework and some instincts on what to look for.

Probably, It was used and I paid the truecar.com price, slightly under asking. There was no way to know how much they were making, but I suspect if they didn’t agree to that truecar price for some reason or if banks weren’t closed, it’d be a different story.

I suggest getting quotes on truecar.com first before wasting time going in…. And or call in and get over the phone quotes from different dealers….. Never go in the a dealership til price is settled already. ..

Your expectations are unrealistic. You will get ripped off. NEVER pay any more than MSRP + tax. Avoid hybrids, huge mark-ups. Before going to any dealers search for good offers online on websites such as truecar.com , cars.com etc.

NEVER pay any mark-up or add-on bs. Get offers from multiple different brands. Look for dealers online, try cars.com, truecar.com, etc.

I’d suggest finding the car you want on Cars.com, autotrader.com, cargurus.com, truecar.com, kbb.com, etc. And using that to narrow down to a particular dealership. I tend to stick with larger dealerships since they have service departments which often fix up used cars before putting them out on the lot for sale.
