IT's been long said that if in the military and buying a new car go at least 30 miles away from your base to get a fair deal.
After Desert Storm the "Big 3" all had some type of military special purchase program. GM's and Ford's were good programs and Chrysler's would save some money but not as much. Several people I knew plus me were in the market for a new vehicle. Both the GM and Ford programs were employee pricing plus delivery, tax and title and all other rebates and incentives still applied. A friend wanted a Ford Explorer. He went to the Ford dealer right outside the gate, got a price then called his father in law who was a mid level manager for Ford. FIL Didn't tell him what he should pay just told him too much. So he went to a dealer about 20 miles away. Kinda a rinse and repeat thing. Price was several thousand lower but the FIL told him nope too high. So he went to a dealer nearly 50 miles away got his deal and the FIL told him OK, that's about where it should be. I was astounded. Almost 9K less that quoted at the first dealer. Another guy and I wound up buying the same thing with the only difference being the color. But option for option they were identical. He bought right outside the gate and I went about 40 miles. I paid about 6K less than he did.
I myself always though that car salesmen were liars. Thought that was on the job app. "How well do you lie"? One of my son's worked as a car salesman for a while. The training they received on how to squeeze the most money out of a customer was amazing.
