If you agree to an Out The Door price, that's the amount of the check that includes any taxes, fees, dealer costs, prep etc to drive the vehicle off of the lot with no balance owed. They can plug it into the loan calculator and spread it out where needed. When I bought my Prius XSP work car in 2013, I offered $28k OTD for the $32k car. We went from "Toyotas sell themselves and aren't up for negotiation" to "We'll take $28k OTD but we're not making any money on it". Guilt trip tactic as no is a perfectly ok counter offer. After printing out all of the paperwork, the salesman realized he forgot to add the tag transfer fee to the state. Rather than start the paperwork all over again, I agreed to write an additional check for $135 rather than go by the DMV myself. I was happy with the deal and I have no doubt they made money on it or they wouldn't have sold it to me. They just made $4k~ less than they had hoped for.
They were probably glad to see me leave the Jayco shop too lol!
