I am sorry, Jennifer is out of stock. We will be sending over Amber Heard instead. I assume that is ok?

I surely hate to disagree with some of you nice fellows, but in my experience, there is some negotiation room in new car pricing.

Back in August of last year, I ordered a new Ford Maverick hybrid pickup. I have been waiting impatiently ever after. Ford Mavericks seem to be trickling out of the factory - just not the one I ordered.

So while perusing the dealers' internet sites, I noticed that a nearby dealer had a non-hybrid Maverick in stock. So I called, and the dealer would gladly sell me the truck - for a $10K markup over the $25K sticker price. I declined the offer, and the sales consultant spoke to his manager and offered to sell me the vehicle at a low, low $9K markup. I offer this as absolute proof that one can negotiate new vehicle pricing.

It sure looks like I'll be driving my 2004 Mazda pickup for another few years.
