You know, based on my nearly 40 years of buying cars, the customer always gets screwed at the stealership. It's just a matter of degree. I've never consciously allowed myself to be tricked into any kind of a direct ripoff but I've never left one of those places feeling like I "won".
I have friends that brag about how good a deal they got, and how they "Got one over" on the stealership. I have only one response to that - "The House always Wins".
Do the best you can and try to live with what you get. Realize that any time you buy anything someone will always "one up" you and attempt to make you feel you were ripped off. It's a fact of life.
As stated earlier, go with the best price you can find and enjoy your purchase. Too much navel gazing isn't good for mental health.
And yes, I'm talking to myself as much as everyone else!
