Looking to buy an used car, any local dealer recommendations?

I know four people, including myself that have bought from Dick Poe. I, myself, went to the used car lot, two bought from Dick Poe Dodge, and one from Dick Poe Toyota. All had great experiences buying a car. I went to look at a truck they were asking $17995+TTTL, and walked out paying $16700 out the door, plus they paid to fix a big dent that was in the bed of the truck (at least another $600 worth of repairs)
I know two people that had...not positive experiences buying from Sunland Park, so myself personally would steer clear.
While looking for a truck I went to Rudolph Chevrolet and was treated well until the negotiations started, and was talked to like I didn't know a damn thing about buying or selling a car. They wanted to give me $2k less than my car's trade in value, but wanted KBB value for the truck. Then tried to "lower" my payment to make the deal look better, when in all actuality they were only stretching the payment out to 66 months with the same interest rate, meaning I paid more in the long run.
While there are good dealers and bad dealers, educating yourself on what you actually want and what you want to pay is the best thing you can do. Secure your own financing first. Then shop online, find what you want, figure out what you are willing to pay, and then show up and be an asshole to get what you want, or be prepared to walk away.

Whatever you choose, the Internet is your friend. Kbb, edmunds, truecar, any reputable site that can tell you what a car is worth will help you have an advantage for negotiations.
