Agree with dahkota. A dealer shouldn't need anything other than your first name - if you want to give it to them - until you're ready to hand over the check or sign the papers.
So, so glad that we now have the Do Not Call Registry....means we only get about half dozen recorded calls a day. Seems the gov't can't even trace the people because they buy blocks of numbers so quickly that they can't keep up with them. I sure don't want some dealer bothering me with his song and dance when I'm not ready. First name should be quite enough.
