      Introduction

      In this e-book I will teach you how to more effectively negotiate the purchase of your next car or truck…whether it is new or used. You will walk into the dealer confident and ready to negotiate a great deal on the car you intend to buy. The process will be smoother and you will be in much more control and your anxiety level should be much lower. You see in my twenty-five years as a professional negotiator I have learned a few things about negotiations. I have negotiated multi-million dollar business deals, countless home purchases and yes plenty of car purchases too.

      I also know that most negotiations are pretty similar…they involve two or more parties. They involve the exchange of money for goods or services. And both sides, no matter how nice on the surface, tend to look out for their own interests. The problem with car buying is that the dealer tends to hold the advantage so when he looks out for his interests - and they always do, the buyer can get really hurt from a financial standpoint.

      I have used the techniques I outline in this e-book in buying my own cars (I currently own four as we have many drivers in our
