My daughters best friend called me a few months ago. Her fiance was looking for a car and found a Ford Fusion with a five speed at a dealer.
The car sounded OK so I told her that only about 10% of car buyers want a stick and only about 2% of them want a sedan so I suggested a lowball price because the dealer really wanted to move that car.
They took the lowball and waived all their processing fees too.
Good advice, cyclotic!
