 +====What's a winning argument to avoid paying dealer prep fees when buying a new car?===
 +From Quora Richard Gatterly(?) 12/02/2024
 +
 +I’ll be short in my answer on this. I ask the sales person for their data sheet. the data sheet has all of the fees on it… with pen, “I'm not paying that, transportation fee, I'm not paying that, air in the tire fee, I’m not paying that… it usually goes pretty well.
 +
 +Then there is the smart-ass way. Sales person is going over the price of the car, and even though they have agreed to my number, they are adding the fees to the price. I say “okay lets go through the deductions.” Them “deductions?” Me “Yes, there is the PITA fee, the Buyers fee, the waiting fee, the negotiating fee” the drive off fee” and I just keep making up fees until they wave me off saying “I get it!’ I’ll take them off!
