What will the car really cost out the door?
Tell Mike the price, your sales tax rate, the fees on the buyer's order and your trade. He adds it up the way the dealer should, and shows the payment if you give the rate and term.

Why ask for out the door
Dealers like to talk monthly payment. The out-the-door number is the one you can compare between dealers. Arithmetic on the numbers you give. Mike never guesses your sales tax rate, and lists any default he used. It is not financial advice.
FAQ
Does Mike know my sales tax rate?
No, and he will not guess it. Rates change by state and county. Tell him the rate and he does the rest.
Is the doc fee negotiable?
Some states cap it and some do not. Ask the dealer for it in writing either way, so it is in the total you compare.
