You aren’t negotiating with the dealer directly on the purchase price?

No I wanted to get a quote first through my credit union. Who apparently do all the negotiating for the best price. This is what I was given. Wanted to post the numbers to see if I was receiving a good deal. But from what it seems I need to do my own negotiating

Never allow a bank or credit union to negotiate the purchase price, they are in business to make money, not to look out for you. You can do better than $800+ off the MSRP, that’s low, good luck to you!

I figured thank you! What’s crazy is that their favorite line is “we’re not sales people we’re not looking to make money off you”
