They want to know if you plan to finance, you tell them nothing. They want to know what you want your payments to be, and this is the big one, tell them NOTHING! Just tell me the price of the car and I'll figure out the rest. I finally got a straight answer out of them on what the car is actually going to cost me including tax and title, and then I sat down and figured out exactly how much interest I'd be paying. From there I figured out the montly payment and made sure they didn't slip anything else in on me. You can't trust these guys with their special incentives.
All very good advice. The other standard question is "How much do you still owe on your present vehicle?"

There is a reason why they call this people "stealers"!!!
