An example based on Chapter 1, on top of the same $40,500 price for the car. Every deal is different, and the book doesn’t promise any specific saving. If you do want a warranty, the book shows you how to buy one without overpaying.
In this example, the difference is $7,795. The book costs $47, one time.

The salesman isn’t your problem. He’s a man with a quota and a mortgage, and he’s probably decent. The system he works inside is what you’re up against.
Every new salesperson learns that system in their first weeks. Nobody hands a copy to the customer. So I wrote one, in plain English, in the order it happens, with the numbers worked out and the words to say back.
You don’t have to be rude. You don’t need perfect credit. You don’t have to storm out of anywhere. You just need to know the system as well as they do.
They’ve got a system for you. Now you’ve got one for them.Earl

No. It covers new and used cars, financing, trading in, the contract, selling your own car safely, and how to handle a service department and a repair estimate.
It’s written for car buyers in the United States. Some rules, like documentation fees, sales tax on trade-ins and your right to cancel, change from state to state. The book tells you plainly when something depends on where you live.
No. There’s nothing to print and nothing to fill out. The phrases and the warnings are collected inside the book, so you can pull them up on your phone.
Please do. The book puts all of it in the order it happens, with the numbers and the exact words in one place, so you can find the right page while you’re sitting at the desk.
No. It’s a plain-English guide for general education. It isn’t legal, financial or mechanical advice, and it doesn’t guarantee any loan approval, interest rate or amount saved.
