Fit Check

Made for first-time and second-time new-car shoppers. Not for the pros.

For you if…
  • You're walking into a dealer in the next 30 days.
  • You hate the F&I office and freeze when they pitch GAP, paint, and "only $19/mo more."
  • You'd rather email 6 dealers than haggle in person.
  • You want to know what holdback is — and why it's your leverage.
  • You have a trade-in you don't want to give away.
Not for you if…
  • You've negotiated 10+ new-car deals and have your own spreadsheet.
  • You're chasing exotic, hard-allocation cars (Type-R, GR Corolla, Z06).
  • You're financing through a dealer-only captive at 0% no matter what.
  • You want to negotiate used cars — grab the Inspection Checklist instead.

K. Williams· 2026 RAV4

F&I script paid for itself ten times over. Said no to the extended warranty without it feeling awkward.

S. Chen· 2025 Tucson

The walk-away rules are gold. Got a callback the next morning with a better offer.
