That's what I'm trying to say. I did tons of research before buying my first brand new vehicle and realized if you negotiate on invoice price, the dealers will still make you pay a OTD of what satisfies them.
If you negotiate OTD price, and tell them I'm not paying more then 34k OTD, like in my case; then they will scrabble and do math and change what ever they have to change to get the sale if the fleet manager agrees to the OTD price

Absolutely. If you are buying a vehicle with no trade, then of course you haggle a final price that you both find satisfactory. Most people trade though and if you do go for a "difference" price. I own four vehicles right now. My 2012 is the oldest. Two were traded for and two were bought with no trade. The two I used traded on were done with the difference method. The two with no trade were bought with me presenting a final number, them countering, me countering, etc until a compromise was reached. In that number they could have included the state park parking fees for all I care as long as I got the number that I wanted. BUT, that was MY number and some would be envious and some would think I got a bad deal. To each their own when it comes to that.
