Best to avoid dealerships altogether. They all have their markups. Have cash in hand and shop private sellers on local CL or Facebook.
An exception might be if you live in a rust belt area where they salt the roads in the winter. Then you might need to go to a dealer who sources southern cars.
- jcims 5y agoPrivate sellers around here are even more optimistic about what their used stuff is worth. It's bad with cars and trucks, even worse with off road vehicles.

In fact, older tractors can be worth even more than new ones in the same class, because they are much less expensive to maintain and repair. Probably the best way to get used trucks, if you are an astute buyer, is to go to estate auctions, but that's obviously much less convenient than FB marketplace or what have you.
