I completely understand and agree. I think dealerships have a right to make a profit. But I have the right to save that profit with a little leg work.
Apparently there are enought people that are willing to pay for convenience that dealers stay in business. I think tacking on 20% for a wax job and an air freshener is a lot of money - but thats just me.

I wish I had a 'friend' that would let me use his manheim access. Anybody - anybody ?????

I wouldn't say you have the "right" to save that profit. There's just too many scummy dealers that are willing to offer this "service" for a quick buck. It ultimately hurts the automotive sector in the long run, but there's nothing that can be done to effectively counter it.

Have you seen what's happened to the automotive industry in the last 2-3 years?

I have the same situation, looking for Range Rover for my wife. Went to couple dealers, even drove from NY to VA dealer this weekend and still can't find what I want for good price. VA dealer was terrible expirience. Never knew, that Land Rover dealer can sell such a ****y car, which is 2 years old. Anyway....enjoy your GL...nice truck
