I undrstand the need for privacy, but after the deal is done, I see a major beneift to others knowing. This is the beauty of the internet. There is a supply and a demand, and if there is an intelligent demand, then we get closer to a win-win situation. For the last 80 years people have been overcharged and in some cases ripped off by dealers. The consumer now has the upper hand. I am not saying dealers don't have a right to a fair profit, but why should I pay $5k more than you? I shouldn't. By collectively arming the demand side, the dealers will have to compete with other dealers openly and we will get to an equilibrium.

Thanks for the replies. Great conversation.
