driven to your home then you can avoid the financing and insurance upcharges that usually negate any savings that you may have had. The second is that it puts you in a better negotiating position because you are only shopping during times that are convenient for you and not waiting on the salesperson while they hassle their manager.

The second tip to save money on buying vehicle is to pit dealerships against each other. Again sales people are usually salaried or on some kind of commission based pay so they want to sell as many vehicles as possible. This means even if they have to take a small loss in the sale

This could end up saving you quite a lot of cash in the long run.
