On this week's episode of RYGTBKM, a dealership tries to hide $8800 worth of fees & add-ons from the online price of a car they're selling; Electrify America charging stations break down; and Toyota discounts the Murai by $40k, but hydrogen fuel is hard to come by in the States.

Car dealerships will soon learn the hard way that this isn’t 2020-21 anymore and the gravy train has ended.
So I have been told. Every single day for the last 2 years...
i couldn't disagree more. dealerships learned a lot more than consumers did during the pandemic. it's no longer about the cheesy salesperson whipping out the 4 square and trying to get you to sign on the dotted line. How much are you going to have to pay for a car when there are 2 on the lot? answer, whatever price they have on the sticker.
@@brentlorrilliere6057 most dealerships have way more than two on the lot.
Think about it..dealers arent sitting on 150+ $40,000-$60,000 cars and another however many in $25,000-$35,000 cars with only $5k in margin each..even ray ray is being dishonest ....typically ONLY 2 or 3 weasels in the dealership know EXACTLY what they own each unit for
@@frank1908 Right? Until dealers/manufacturers cut prices, then it's all noise. Incentives are still nowhere near pre-pandemic levels.
Over 1K for window tint?! that is beyond insanity!
Just wait til you see the oil change cost ;)
Must be tinted with gold film.
Go to some local business and it's like 120 bucks; these dealers are idiots
@vuongn2318 no, they're crooks.
Anything over $200ish is insane...
Your channel helped my family out so much over the past month. My wife and I were both involved in car accidents over the past month where drivers ran into us, totaling both of our cars. While it was a stressful time for our family, your channel supplied me with great knowledge that I applied to our car-buying experience, saving us a lot of time and money! HUGE thanks to your family for providing some great content that helped us through this time!
Chapman in Vegas does the same thing. They tries to charge my friend $4k in recon on a used Jeep. I explained that I used to work at a dealer and recon is part the price. They wouldn't budge until after we left. They called him back and said they'd remove it if he came back in.
So did you tell them you want another $2K off at least just to come back?
If a traded-in vehicle needs that much in recon fees, they already got it from the one that traded it in.
Pinnacle Nissan and ABC Nissan in Phoenix went through a $500,000 lawsuit two years ago for advertising low pricing then having add ons they wouldn’t take off. I went into Pinnacle this week to check out a vehicle and lo and behold, they had $2-3,000 of add ons they didn’t advertise. Sales guy was nice enough but man are these dealerships sleazy.
I always tell them I will not pay for any of the addons either they remove the cost of them, or I walk.
Yes. Feet do serve a purpose.
Better to be walking AS you tell them to remove.
Do they comply?
@@speaktruth247 They do or I walk, never be married to vehicle sitting on a lot. No skin of my back whether they sell to me or if I have to go down the road to get what I want. I have had mixed success. 2 years ago, no chance they were charging above MSRP, and people lapped it up alone with all the add-ons. Now when they are sitting on a ton of metal and eating that floor plan interest you would probably have good luck. I also have had luck getting them to add stuff like a bed liner or tint at no additional charge.
Nope tried that and I walked and no-one stopped me. Still haven't purchased a truck to date.
We were at Freeway Chevrolet and we were able to negotiate all their markups except for the 699 window tent. Went from 5k in markups to 699. Only problem once we agreed to the price. The car a Chevy blazer was no where to be found. They called around and eventually found out the service department had it and gave us the run around. We decided to go somewhere else and got the same deal.
Silverados come stock with dark rear passenger doors and rear window dark glass. The only windows to tint are the 2 front doors.
Exactly
Same with Volkswagen. Are they charging extra for the stock tinting?
I was told by chapman I could get a z06 for $10k over msrp, drove across town, they changed the deal, wanted me to sign agreement saying "market adjustment," meaning when the car's delivered it'd be $100K over. AZ dealers are legendarily bad.
There are dealers selling Z06’s for MSRP now. It might take some research but they are out there.
Thank you RAY & ZACH! I so agree with this post. I am in TX and they are just the same. I QUIT selling cars because I have morals.
Can you help me negotiate?
$499 for tinting is really expensive too.
Usually the dealership
Outsources the tinting to an outside shop who might charge $250 dollars, then the dealership charges whatever they want on top of that to come up with that price.
True, but the cost to operate a dealership is very high.
My brother and I both wanted new cars, He wanted two, one for his wife so we were looking for three cars. It was such an ordeal we both decided to keep what we had until the BS stopped.
We've come to the conclusion that dealers can't screw you if you don't buy.
Funny, my buddy took my truck to his dealership and had their tint guy do it when he came in. 150 bucks, which was the dealerships price. Funny how they want 10x more, lol.
This was just last year as well.
Hope they can't sell these trucks with these b.s. fees and add ons. The FTC needs to go after this dealer.
If they couldn't sell them, they would not be doing it.
@@use1kcf you haven't looked at days on lot on these vehicles. They aren't selling. Ford has vehicles sitting literally 2 years that are new. Dodge hornet has thousands that won't sell either. Once these dealers are reported to FTC for these fraudulent prices, they get fined. Do your research.
@@blaakrosethose hornets are ugly and undesirable in every way. What were they thinking.
Feds should override state franchise law and pull the business license of stealerships.
There is nothing in the legal system that even applies to overpricing a vehicle. They can charge whatever they want. They will only bring prices down if people don't buy them.
Hill Country Honda in San Antonio tried to charge my friend $600.00 for nitrogen in his Honda tires. NO REALLY!!!
If nitrogen is good...is helium better lol
The atmosphere is 78 + percent nitrogen , 21 percent oxygen, and the rest a mix of other gases. WOW.
Hill country Honda is the dealership that had a 2021 Tundra for $100,000 when the 2022s were coming out. One of the worst dealerships in the region.
I know a Porsche tech and when they charge 800 bucks to actually change the nitrogen in all 4 tires, he told me the actual cost of the machine is 28 bucks to do all 4 tires, the one hour billed is whatever labor is for the dealer and the rest, hundreds of dollars is pure profit on top of that 1500 dollar old change. Maybe people that have the money to by a Porsche don't care but it is still a huge rip off. The stability of nitrogen in the tires argument is still something that is not all that critical in a daily driver, not to me anyway.
WHAT!
EVERY single dealer operates like this in Florida!
Lot of dumb people and old confused old people. Not much different up here in GA
not mullinex dealer stores..🧐🤗
Coggin BMW, FT Pierce: $1599.00 for Claybar "paint protection", $499. VIN window etching, and that was what I can remember. It was the last time we ever entered and exited their showroom. BTW, the finance guy's office was adorned with religious Christian paraphernalia.
@AvengerAngel I live in port saint Lucie! Dealers around here are ridiculous
The only place possibly worse than Coggin was Sutherlin Nissan on Rt One in Ft Pierce or maybe it was in PSL, can't recall it's been a few years Sutherlin with their clown circus ownings!
@@Juice421fs
Every time I drive by my local Dodge dealership and see row after row of cars I think of your channel. Southern Dodge Chesapeake VA has 64 Challengers, 150 (yes 150) Chargers, 132 Grand Cherokee's, and 61 2500 Trucks. Unreal!
And the still wanna overcharge for these damn cars
@@grege1972 Especially after they've been sitting outside in the sun for a year, compromising the exposed plastic/rubber.
That yellow rain flows down on the backs of customers eternally in dealerships, but that helps wash away all the crap on the floor.
😂 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Legendary comment
Love you guys. Very entertaining and informative at the same time. Keep it up!
I love going into a dealership and getting to the signing table..... and then..... renegotiating the whole deal! Their time is worth a lot to them!
Im wondering how many people THIS OLD GUY screwed in all the years before when you worked for dealerships....Ill bet its plenty.....And now you want us to believe your a nice guy....and that kid of yours ? Now you make your money on RUclips....trying to pretend you actually care.....WHAT A JOKE
There is going to be a "Fire Sale" at so many dealerships after the Spring Rush!!! If you can wait it will be a bloodbath win for buyers!
Heard that for a year. Check 90% of their videos.
@@scuba6797 Exactly. These dealers are doing just fine and all of the automakers are bringing in record profits. They would rather make fewer cars and sell at higher prices than make commodity cars at bargain basement prices.
No fire sale coming.
@@scuba6797great point!
Love your videos, was recently looking to trade a 2021 longhorn Laramie Limited addiction dealer calls me I tell him the price I want never heard back from him wanted to give me $30,000. Meanwhile the truck sells for 47,000 as a trade-in, this scheme is thank you again for the videos.

heheeh I told Toyota to disable the Lo-Jack since I'm not paying for it screw that shit, that saved me $500 bucks. The tinting is $50 per window, at best! $600 for lettering? hahhaah. Decals are $100 at best and takes 60 seconds to install and the edging is $150. I have a friend in the biz and that's what they pay their 3rd party contractor to install the edging per car. These dealers STILL haven't learned their lesson with ripping off the public. Stay strong people and don't buy for the next 2 years! Pay off your current vehicle and baby it until it dies. Screw these dealerships!
For an EV to work, simply charge it at home. These are daily drivers. This is an absolute non-story.
Love guys for always showing the a hole of life be blessed
Anyone who buys an EV without knowing where they’re going to charge it before the purpose is pretty clueless
Don Jackson North can give 10k off the trucks with only a few fees. 8999.00 Advantage Fee 1199.00 Doc Fee and 1427.00 Lot Rot Prevention Fee and 899.00 Get Ready Fee. New battery replacement is only 495.00 keeping under 100k. Note must finance at applicable interest rate tbd.
You send to the salesrep at the dealership a spreadsheet that lists the vehicle MSRP, and options YOU want, then the line that says discount, then the discounted price. A few lines after that listing the admin fee, government fees an taxes. Tell them to fill it in. If they don't then send a "Bought a vehicle elsewhere message". When you do get there if anything changes, except in your favour, walk out the door. Just tell them "it is MY MONEY and I will spend it on what I WANT, not what you want me to buy".
Here in NY the lots have been full. Before strike, during, and after. $70k Trucks should be $55k. Add an upgrade to the small interior screen or add better engine and you have to go up "TRIM LEVELS" which adds something like $15-20k. They are not willing to take any hit on vehicals out of greed. They would make more money selling more vehicals for less money then holding out on these huge mark ups. '
I've spent over 20yrs in the car business and I've said it again and again: car dealers are used to making way more money than their education level should allow.
Most educated people in my experience are terrible workers. A hard worker is all you need. It's more the fact they want to much money per product keeping all of their lots full with trucks. Should sell more trucks for cheaper price. Move more vehicals make more money!
@@scuba6797 you're right about that! I got into the car business right when they started to figure out that it was more profitable to have more of a customer service guy making volume sales than a lot lizard clubbing people like they were baby seals. The issue is that when times got lean, lot lizards in plaid pants had seniority and dealers saw hitting a few home runs as more valuable than a whole bunch of base hits.
I remember telling a dealer back in 2004 that in the future, he'll have one salesman with a computer and the rest of the building would be service writers. He laughed at me.
He's out of business now. 😆
They all try it. I got a quote on a used truck that included “theft deterrence” fee for $200 bucks and gross overestimate of registration fees.
Thanks for doing the longer video. The short ones make me change the channel like an old-style tv commercial.
Just when you think you should feel bad for dealers because the market is so bad, they prove to you they don't deserve your sympathy.
Majority of car sales, absolutely do this! I’ve been buying cars for 35 years, and I have always seen this tactic used.
Dealer prep is on the dealer not the buyer. That is the most BS charge.
I just recently re-tinted my truck with high-end ceramic tint, and it only cost me 600.
Question;
Is the home EV charging unit included with the purchase of the vehicle? Or is that a manufacturers added expense?
From my first job on, I was capable of buying (for cash) any car out there. And it's games like this that kept me from EVER buying a new car.
This is still widespread practice. I wanted to lease Hummer EV and local Wisconsin GMC dealership added 10k in add-ons and changed the GMC incentivized money factor buy rate from .00358 to .00458, an effective difference of about 3% interest.
Last week, I got the windows tinted on my Camry. The tint and installation cost me $180. That price included a lifetime warranty. Ya, that dealer is ripping people off.
I've run into this recently when we looked for a newer used car to replace our MDX. Online prices looked great, and then when you contact the dealer, the out the door price is significantly higher.

I ordered a Maverick a couple of years ago. It finally arrived at the dealership 20 months after ordering with a MSRP of almost $5500 more when ordered. I didn’t buy it. It’s time the customers take back the power.
It is a free market, as consumers we have the freedom to shop where ever they want
Nothing is a free market... monopolies and duopolies control the market. There is no such thing as a free market.
Hahahaha. Our corrupt incompetent Socialist Govt that destroyed GM in 2010 today blocks Toyota from selling a 12k Hilux here...
Yes, but the tax payer will be forced to bail them out again
Free market with 8 dealership groups controlling almost all inventory. Really sounds free. So much freedom of decisions.
Not with state dealership laws that limit competition (no direct sales, exclusive territories, etc.).
Great to the point info. My plant hasn’t propagated in 3yrs. 😢
just a few comments on a couple vids I've seen. If a billion dollar loan is forgiven for a company - that counts as $1 billion in revenue, and its taxed as revenue. So the company shows high profits in the quarter they get the revenue. They will most likely be able to restate earnings against loses for previous and future quarters to mitigate taxes. A jump in stock prices just lets people who understand what is happening cash out. .
I wrote a paper many years ago about US auto manufacturers profit per unit - back then they were making about $2K an auto while foreign manufactures were around $3K-$4K. So if we look at a company like Dodge making $2K a car. If they increase the price of the car by $2,000 (to get $4K in profit) and half their volume, at worse their profit stays even. But they probably also pick up saving in variable production cost (labor/management/new equipment build-outs). A 50% increase in price (that mostly adds profit) and a 60% loss in volume is a very good situation. They may be moving to a luxury pricing model, it may benefit them to shed dealers.
Its the new "Tungsten Tint" Ray, I got one on my "Tungsten Hornet" just last week !!
I had a fun encounter with a dealership where they marked up the price on a silverado 2500 $5000 more on paper than they did on their website and said it was a "mistake" they also gave me some bs excuse that the price on KBB doesn't reflect the actual price even though they used KBB price on the lemon those thieves sold me. They're going to have fun explaining this in court
Smh those extra charges are insane and should be illegal. $1400 for window tint is pure greed
If "Taxes" is the sales tax on the car, it's only legitimate item on the list. The window tint is bad, but the "Dealer Prep" is just making fun of you. I'm a consultant, if my invoices looked like this I'd be OOB in a week.
Most vehicles come with factory tint.
Chapman is in Arizona and AZ has a Property Tax component on its license plate costs, so the "Fees" is probably the only part of the added fluff that is legitimate.
At my Chevrolet Dealership they had the ability to print out a Window Sticker and put any price on it they wanted.
I find the US stranger every day. Surely it’s against advertising law to quote one price but you end up paying a higher price. Over here in the UK Car dealers cannot do that as it’s against the trading standards law and also have to disclose any commission they will get from finance.
I thought the car market is back to pre-covid.. guess not? my 2006 infinity is about to die and I am wondering if I should fix it to get it moving or get another car but I certainly don't wanna get ripped off with these ridiculous markups
I just fell in love with Ray.😊 great content.
You know I heard during the c19 most dealerships were charging silly markups then customers started complaining to car manufactures and some of the car companies called and literally threatened them a loss of being a dealer if they were caught selling over MSRP. I can't remember which companies it was but seems like one might have been Hyundai. I believe California is the only state with Hydrogen fuel stations for the Toyota Marai. Im not sure why electric cars can have chargers all over but hydrogen forget it.
I just went to buyout my Lexus Lease at the dealership i where I got it n Florida and they tried to tack on $2,800 of fees. After raising voice in showroom and reciting Consumer Lease Act they waived 2K but still tacked on $800 in electronic registration fee's. They said everbody does it.
Thank you for posting your very informative videos!
I’ve been to this dealer and walked out after the salesperson demanded I fill out a credit app to test drive. Will NEVER go back. Rip off dealer!
I see this all the time in Florida. It’s called Business as Usual
Same thing with the Autonation Chevy dealers down here in Florida. Trucks are 14k off online, once you get the numbers out of them they are 6k off. Scumbags.
Pops I love you my brother does tint he charges 350 and he does discounts for students the elderly and more we told you the dealerships has lost there way. When I was in the military there was dealerships used to throw in tint as a perk for buying a new car that’s why car edge is why we believe in Zach and you to get the good dealerships so we can go there or let y’all get the car for us stay blessed

my local Honda dealership markup 37k CRV to 45k. At least they listed 2k as plain 'market adjustment'. $1600 for alarm that only cost $400 5 years ago?
I went to Ideal cars in Arizona yesterday and everything is 2000 more than listed in the website. Also, the prices were non negotiable. Idk if thats normal for used cars. But I had watched a video about what not to tell them right away and the guy was getting mad. Then he said prices are non negotiable 🤷🏽♀️ It was also late in the day so only one offer came through from the bank for 11% interest. They said I can take the car and sign for it and hope something better comes on Monday.
They are doing this. I just bought a Maverick and the dealer added $2000 to the advertised price for LoJack, VIN etching, and interior protection. I declined and they removed the costs when I started walking. You really need to have your spidey senses in place these days !
All these markups is why nobody wants to buy from dealers anymore and just buy right from the manufacturer
The advertised price should be the actual out the door price. I don't know any dealer who does that.
Out the door price is different for each individual. They don’t know how much you’re putting down and what your payments will be, maybe you’re paying cash even. Lots of moving parts to the out the door price. Dealers will advertise their best price online, whether you qualify for all those discounts or not.
@@jmanf223 that's a load of manure. The out the door price doesn't depend on what you put down or trade in.
It cost me like $279 to tint my two front doors to match the remainder of the rear OEM tint with the most premium tint made.
Polish & detail inside of ur trade & tell the dealership you want $2500 more on your trade for reconditioning. Fresh oil change air filter cabin filter and any other recent maintenance on ur trade add it on what your asking. Totaling around $3-$4000 $7000 on maintenance add to say $20,000 for your trade with extra $10,000 for maintaining it. Your price for your trade is $30,000 with $10,000 add ons. Counter they’re add ons with yours
This would be a pretty funny tactic. “Oh okay I’ll pay that 2,500 recon fee, that’s the going rate right sir? No problem. Oh by the way I’m going to recon the trade in, I’ll expect to see that $2,500 increase in the trade value, thank you”
Feldman Chevrolet wasn't so bad. I did my homework before hand. I knew how much I wanted to pay and the length of my term. I only had to talk them out of $500 in fees and ask to see my APR before signing anything
Get em , Ray !!
NY removed both my front window tints. It was stock. Couldn't pass inspection without removing it lol So imagine paying 1200 for just back window tints!
Is anyone surprised? This is why I haven’t bought a GM since the early nineties. Between the poor quality, recalls, costumer service that leaves a lot to be desired. Your better off driving by their dealerships.
Always call before you go for Out the door price.
For my Toyota Tundra SR5 Crewmax 4x4 Xseries my OTD price was only 53K on a 2024! Lifetime oil changes, free wheel and tire replacement, free loaner vehicle, and they put tint on my front windows for free! No Dealer fee, no dealer prep fee, and no nitrogen.
What is the name of the dealership where you bought your Tundra?
Some dealers play the long game. Now, you are set to only go to them for any service for the life of your vehicle. I'm not saying that's bad, but they get all your money. It's called steering, hoping you never question them or go to a local shop. They get the money from your tire replacement air filters and brakes, among other services they feel you need. Coolant flush, tranny flush, and injector cleaning, brake flush are common "needed " services.
@@larryharrell9551 Valdosta Toyota. There were dealer fees, but I got them removed and purchased an extended warranty for 1500, that I will cancel later because this brought my intrest rate from 5.94% to 5%. They even beat out my own financing from Navy Federal, USAA, and PEN Fed! which was 6.7-9.89% from them.
@@bobcook8576 It can be serviced by any Toyota in the south east. So its not bad. I will only trade it in later for a higher end model after I graduate college in 1.5 years.
The shift has to stop. Evs are not the answer.
or maybe just don't buy one troll. EV's are great in some areas, YOU don't get to decide what those people buy and drive.
That's what we are saying to the politicians who want to force electrics on us. @@batsonelectronics
I went to a RAM dealership who was going to jump the interest rate up on me. I went to another dealership got the same RAM and saved $12,000
I am a frequent viewer, not a patron though. I have not heard you mention Alpha Romeo. The Giulia is one of the few automobiles that can still be purchased. I have a 2021 with 70,000 miles no problems. Quirks yes, no problems. Am I missing something?
What the heck is SG VTR? When I was shopping for my RAV4 I saw several dealers adding 6000 dollar nitrogen filled tires! I asked several times if these “special” tires were compatible with a 787? For that prices, gees.
Si let me make this clear for you guys at CAREDGE.!!!! Specially for Ray.! Yes you can window tint the windshield and for a ceramic window tint all the way around with Xpel runs around $600, xpel PPF full front around $2k and partial front which is what dealerships do, runs around $600, these prices are retail in my area, I used to own a PPF business. What they charge for PPF and window tint still outrageous and customers can get a better deal doing this outside the dealership. I can help you understand that.
Way to expose my employer, good job!
how long should i wait to get a good deal on a car.. based on your ideas, 18 ,23 29 days...??
Like a successful stock investor, I buy and hold. I purchased a 2008 Honda CRV XL-E for $23k and drove it 206,000 miles over a 10 year period. Solid reliable car with great gas mileage and no worries. Currently driving a 2018 Subaru Outback Limited ($28K after trade-in) and no worries, love this car. In 2008 car sales were very slow and the same in 2018, providing a great price on both cars.
I was seriously considering a Mirai, but when I searched hydrogen fuel stations, there were none near me. It definitely feels like they got the cart before the horse on this one.
Mirai works in certain areas perfectly in CA. Parts of SoCal & Bay Area, (East Bay, South, Peninsula) Perfect locations for a Mirai. This is why you see them so frequently here. Plus that free $15k fuel. 100% of Mirai owners have other cars. Perfect daily commuter imo. Then dump it after warranty is done.
its tinted with gold!
Ray is a super wise man. I mean he was working for the enemy and I'm sure was quite good at it but I feel like he is reformed now and helping out the other side!! But really he has a great understanding and knowledge about the car industry.
I owned a 2015 Ford Focus Electric. It could only charge at level 2 charging rates up to
7.5kw. No DC fast charging. At the time many Ford Dealerships had Level 2 chargers at
their sites for customers and others charging needs. Many people can have this type of
charging unit installed at home and do the majority of charging there. DC Fast Charging
is a totally different ball game and is mostly necessary for long distance travel. Tesla's
Charging Network rules because of continuous monitoring and maintenance. Other Charging
Networks just cannot compare in Reliability.
I just setup an appointment w a car dealership to look at a car they listed at 9800 then when i got there to look at the car then they listed it at 12,600 wtaf what do you recommend in a situation like this.
I had a similar experience (ad was for 15k, which actually ended up being 18k w/ all the BS fees once i walked in). I ended up negotiating and settled for 15,500. Good luck! Its really hit or miss, just be ready to walk and they will work with you if they are desperate enough to sell.
That is bait and switch I would contact the FTC and file a complaint.
Thank you for the input, i really appreciate it. Always nice to know any useful info on this stuff and that its not just me. Thanks again for the replies.
Ask them why. My guess besides them being shady is the shop bill came back. Which an almost 3k shop bill is a red flag itself.
The Porche customers should have done their research beforehand to see if there are areas where they can charge their cars
Was funny as the window tint. The one below are both $1400.
That’s not inflation. That’s greed. I got ceramic tints on my car and it was about 500 bucks. I’m positive this is not ceramic tint.
Dealer preparation being almost $3,000, along with $1,500 in fees. What’s fees?? It's remarkable that all this is being done without them wearing a mask.
Im wondering how many people THIS OLD GUY screwed in all the years before when you worked for dealerships....Ill bet its plenty.....And now you want us to believe your a nice guy....and that kid of yours ? Now you make your money on RUclips....trying to pretend you actually care.....WHAT A JOKE
Best pro where I live is $200 tint for everything. I wrote a real negative review for BMW after they tried to pile on all these crazy fees. Now they email me crying. Too late and no I will not take down my review.
Maybe you can answer my question. I was going to buy a used car. I did the research on the price according to your advise. I then went to the bank and they valued the car at half of the price. I used KBB and got offers as you suggest and the asking price was good. When I asked the bank why so low they stated that JD Powers values it at half of everyone else. Why is this?
Have you gone to the JD Power website and used their pricing tool yourself?
@@wccrispy Yes, of course.
My wife has an EV. There's no issue of finding places to charge. They show up on the car's moving map. They're all over the place. 7 years ago we found them in the middle of nowhere. We find them in places where there are no gas stations. And let he/she who's never run out of gas cast the first stone.
I using the internet and a quote from a dealer to price out financing and lease payments for a 24 GTI. I have the residual and money factor from Edmunds and the dealer is quoting me prices 200 a month over what Edmunds lease calculator is giving me.
