I know going into the dealer with cash money helps the bargaining aspect somewhat.
Not really, they would rather you finance it with one of their lenders, as they get kickbacks, signing bonus or what ever you want to call it.
It now appears the best deal is to do it via the web and email, getting them down to their lowest price. You have to know what you want on the truck and do your home work. Then walk in and pay for it or finance it. They look at anyone that walks in as another mark. If you want to walk in, have a folder full of bids from other dealers/Carsdirect/etc and ask to work with the fleet sales/internet person. The guys up from will frown and take you to that person, as the higher they can sell the more they make.
