Just FYI, places like true car are paid by the dealer...

WilliamS, Isn't selling leads to a dealer the definition of being paid by the dealer?
false. dealer invoice pricing is the same across the country, with some minor exceptions being large metropolitan areas paying a slight premium charge (the NJ surcharge, for example). even freight is the same everywhere in the country, which sucks for the people who live close to the manufacturer and are paying $1,645 for a truck that was built right down the street.Dealer invoice numbers vary from dealer to dealer. The higher the volume sold, the better the dealer's price paid to FCA.
this is also false. TrueCar dealers absolutely have a say in what price is displayed to the customer based on what they have their invoice offset set to in the truecar portal. if you're only being shown leads based on market conditions, you're not paying to be a truecar certified dealer.Thats not true, truecar sells leads to dealers that want to capture the customers who like the no no nonsense price. I run a dealership, we have no sway to the pricing they give.
Truecar is 99% accurate on giving an invoice price in my experience.

i'm not disputing that, but you said that you can't control what pricing a customer sees on a vehicle. that is incorrect, since you have control over your invoice offset and default aftermarkets in the truecar portal. this will change the price that "ABC Dodge" displays for that vehicle.Still wrong, we have a say in how much my car is advertised for, but I have no say so on the invoice amount, msrp, or what the cars are selling for in the market. I can make my price $10000 over msrp on some crap car, that doesnt mean truecars website will make my car any better, or adjust the pricing they show the customer as a good deal.

The game has changed, that’s for damned sure.
