USA Today quotes Ray Lopez, Five Star Publications'' author of Inside the Minds of Car Dealers as saying "buyers of the priciest luxury cars want to have all that''s available. But for more mainstream cars, expensive safety features are a very hard sell." Read the article & Ray''s book to shop smarter for your next car. USA Today Next time I step onto a dealer''s lot, I''m going armed with insider information. Inside the Minds of Car Dealers is a new book written by Ray Lopez, a former car salesman with thirty years of experience in numerous dealerships. Inside the Minds of Car Dealers is, as the title suggests, a 118-page insight into the mind of a car salesman, and contains engagingly-written explanations of what goes on behind the curtain at a car dealer, so to speak. Inside the Minds of Car Dealers offers tips on how to find a good dealer before you even leave the house, explains the head games salesmen play and how they can spot a so-called "auto expert" a mile away-and take him or her for even more money than they will the average consumer. Reading Inside the Minds of Car Dealers, I saw exactly what was going on when I bought my Miata...and my Saab...and my Escort. This book explained what the dealer was doing in each case-and how I was getting taken for every last cent each time! Lopez'' writing style is a bit heavy-handed at times, but the information contained in this volume is vital, valuable stuff that''ll make your next car buying experience a great deal less stressful. It''s $15.95 well spent. Christopher Jackson Elepent Automotive Reviews What makes someone sell you a clunker? "Inside the minds of Car Dealers: How to Buy Your Next Car without Fear" is a guide for readers who seek a psychological edge in dealing with the shifty con artists who go by the more politically correct title of car dealers. Written by a man who has played the devil, he offers much in the way of trying to decipher the thoughts on both sides of the deal and does well in arming his readers in how to get the best deal they can and avoid the toxic ones. "Inside the Minds of Car Dealers" is a must for anyone considering purchasing a new vehicle in the near future. Midwest Book Review Library Bookwatch December 2009 5 out of 5 stars A PROFESSIONAL, INFORMATIVE AND USEFUL GUIDE! In 2003, I walked into a Chevrolet showroom to purchase a new car for my daughter. As I look back now, I remember being there from opening to closing. After signing the contract and going through with the deal, I realized that I wasn''t prepared, and I could have saved a lot of money. Since that sale, I''ve read many books and did some research on how to buy a new car, or used car, and what we should know about trading in your car. In comparison to THE CAR BUYER''S BIBLE, HOW TO BUY A CAR, and BUYING A CAR FOR DUMMIES, I found "INSIDE THE MINDS OF CAR DEALERS" to be the most informative guide on this subject. If you want expert advice on buying a car, then it would be logical to obtain information from someone who spent thirty years as a car salesman, who served an estimated 2,800 customers per year. Ray Lopez worked for many top-notch leading dealerships such as Chrysler, Cadillac, and Nissan. Through the experience of his thirty year career, knowledge, and expertise, the author can educate the public on how to be a wise car buyer. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is contemplating on buying a car, or trading in your used car. The author provides excellent information that is extremely helpful in purchasing a car, or trading one in. This book is easy to read and understand, many tips are provided on how to obtain the best deal, and many crucial factors are included as to what to do, and what not to do. Did you ever go to a showroom, and buy a car that you didn''t want? Were you ever told by a salesman that you can afford to buy their car? Were you ever disrespected, or mistreated by a car salesman? Were you ever lured into a factory discount? Ever gone for a test drive, but told you can''t drive it off the lot due to insurance liability? Ray Lopez can answer these questions and many more, while showing you every trick of the trade that can be used against you, through manipulative schemes. The author reveals the biggest secrets in the car buying industry in this unique, professionally written, informative guide. "INSIDE THE MINDS OF CAR DEALERS" is something you may want to read again-and-again, before walking into that showroom as a potential buyer. You will indeed be prepared, and informed on how to become a composed car buyer. Ray Lopez encourages you to do research, includes resources of what to be aware of, and how to detect signs of being taken advantage of. By Geraldine Ahearn "Author Geri Ahearn" October 5, 2009 (Phoenix, AZ) 5.0 out of 5 stars Very Impressive Amazon Verified Purchase. I bought the book because I wanted to find out the right way to buy a car. I''m going to be ready for a new one in a few months. So I might as well start now on learning all I can about car salesmen. I can''t trust them. My goal was to buy one, read it, then buy another, and so on, as long as they had high recommendations and were reasonably priced. I figured I''d spend about $75 on 5 books. By then I could probably learn everything about how they always end up screwing you. And if it cost me $75 but saved me $1000 or more, it would be a worthwhile investment. I saw this book and I liked the title so I thought, why not? I''ll take a chance. I''m really glad I did. Inside The Minds Of Car Dealers has everything you''ll ever need to know on how to get a really good deal. There was stuff in it that I never even dreamed of that goes at the dealership. And it''s not just with the salesman. It''s with the sales manager, the way the showroom is laid out and even the dealership''s ads for salesmen! Who would''ve ever thought to start researching there first? But it does make sense. This book explains why you never want to go on the lot with an attitude like you know how to deal. I just found out why my friend ended up paying more for his Focus than I did a couple years ago. We bought ours a few days apart. He told them he knew the exact price they paid for the car and he wouldn''t pay anything over that. He ended up paying $1378 more than me. And the reason is in this book. Too bad for him the book wasn''t available back then. There''s so much great information in it and it''s so easy to read too. None of the sales lingo. Just plain English. And it uncovers even more than you''d ever expect. I''m going to read it a few more times before I get my new car. And I recommend to everyone to buy Inside The Minds Of Car Dealers. It will save you money and a lot of time. And like the title says, you can Buy Your Next Car Without Fear. By Radio Guy November 14, 2009 (Los Angeles)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "How Savvy Are You at the Art of Buying a Car in this Millenium?" That's not a trick question! Years ago, you could pretty much figure on just about three different makes of cars to select from. Everyone had their favorites and as far as colors went, well you'd better like black or white! Financing was much different back then as well. If you didn't have A+ credit you could figure on walking or finding an alternate form of transportation. There were no alternatives for borrowing. It was the bank or a finance company. You didn't have much trouble back then with selecting a dealer either. Each town or municipality generally had one dealer for each of the three major manufacturers and that was it. What about used cars, you ask? Well, you bought those at the new car dealer. They were almost always cars that were traded in on a newer model. The other thing you didn't find much of back then was "hype." Somewhere along the industrialized way car salesmen picked up a bad reputation for promising the moon and not even delivering the bleu cheese! The sad thing is that as the market became larger so did competition. When you are looking at literally hundreds of make and model combinations you realize that cars represent a real tough competitive industry. You haven't seen any hype thus far in the introduction to our Car Buying Tips and you won't. Our entire premise is to bring you valuable information that will give you buying leverage when shopping for a new or used car. That's it. Period. You need to understand that when you are ready to buy a car, you are actually going to war! Yep, just as surely as any soldier you will be navigating strange waters that may or may not be friendly. You need to understand that "you" versus "them!" "Them" represents all the new and used car dealers, salesmen and all the various methods for financing. You've got to navigate these waters as if you knew what you are doing and where you are going else you are sure to run aground or, heaven forbid, be eaten up and spat out by sharks! From the very first moment you step on the car dealers' lot you need to be on the defensive. It's important to realize that in just a matter of seconds the salesman is able to size you up and come up with an unspoken profile for how he is going to sell you a car! Believe it! These guys are trained in sales techniques and how to recognize different buyer styles so they sell you exactly how you want to be sold! The best defense is a great offense, right? So, doesn't it stand to reason then that you, as prey, would approach them, the shark, as fully armed as possible to ensure your safety? That's where Car Buying Tips comes in. Look, we aren't going to promise you that moon. What we will do, very simply, is outfit you with an understanding of the guerilla marketing tools these guys use to try and land a big fish like. . .YOU!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the pocket guide I wish I had when I first became a general manager of a Mitsubishi dealership in New York. Honestly, I am not the brightest star in the sky and made every mistake anyone could've possibly made. Unfortunately, I see dealer principals/general managers/general sales managers making the same mistakes today. The only difference is the time and consequences of these mistakes. I got my first GM gig in 2004. That was in the beginning days of the Internet, before millennials joined the workforce, and way before any viable disrupters entered the market space. It was a lot easier to get away with mistakes then. I don't think you could get away with making the same mistakes now. The stakes are too high. Automotive retail profit margins are tiny. According to the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA), automotive net profit margin as of March 31, 2019 was merely 1.38 percent. As a result, every misstep makes it harder to stay in business.The car business desperately needs better leadership skills, understanding of social media, inventory management, fixed operations, and so much more. There is no educational barrier to the entry into car business, and there are only a handful of universities offering a major in car dealership general management, such as Liberty and Keiser. On top of that, only a tiny percentage of dealer principals and general managers attend the National Automobile Dealer Association University. That means that a vast majority of general managers receive training on the job, even if we took business-related classes in college. The auto business is a different animal. General information will only carry you so far. That is exactly why general managers make the same mistakes year after year. My goal is to break this vicious cycle and provide as much information as possible to ensure that automotive retail survives the disruptions we are witnessing today. We need to be ready for the next generation of car buyers, people who are more computer savvy and not afraid to search for better deals. According to surveys, 80 percent of millennials plan to buy a vehicle in the next five years. In fact, millennials worldwide will buy about 40 percent of all vehicles in the next decade. At the same time, they spend an average of 17 hours on line before going to a dealership.Are you ready for them?

Book excerpt: Mercy Thompson, car mechanic and shapeshifter, must face her greatest fears in this chilling entry in the #1 New York Times bestselling series. The vampire Wulfe is missing. Since he’s deadly, possibly insane, and his current idea of “fun” is stalking me, some may see it as no great loss. But, warned that his disappearance might bring down the carefully constructed alliances that keep our pack safe, my mate and I must find Wulfe—and hope he’s still alive. As alive as a vampire can be, anyway. But Wulfe isn’t the only one who has disappeared. And now there are bodies, too. Has the Harvester returned to the Tri-Cities, reaping souls with his cursed sickle? Or is he just a character from a B horror movie and our enemy is someone else? The farther I follow Wulfe’s trail, the more twisted—and darker—the path becomes. I need to figure out what’s going on before the next body on the ground is mine.
