To Our Visitors:

When originally developing the plans for this Web Site almost 5 years ago, people told me to take the "easy" route. You know, play to people's fears. Tell them what they "wanted to hear"--even if it was bad information. Make a big splash, sell lots of books, grab the money and move on. But, I didn't believe that to be the right approach then, and nearly 5 years into sharing information through this Web Site, I still don't believe that it is the right approach today.

After seeing thousands of car buyers, armed with bogus "beat up the car salesman" information written by people who had spent a few months in the auto business (or never spent a minute inside a dealership) get stuck with deals with too much profit for the dealer (or the wrong car) I was more convinced then ever. The word needed to get out: The way you win (and the way you save money) is to
prepare. Not antagonize. Not lie. Not play silly games. Prepare yourself to win and you will. It's that simple.

I hope you find this web site valuable. At the least, take at advantage of the information and resources available here on the site. Most of all, I hope you will use both to save aggravation, time, and money.
E-mail me and let me know what you think.

Sincerely,

Ed Stevens
