Tip of the day – You don’t need “extras.”

Car dealers do anything to persuade consumers purchase as many extras as possible. Each “extra” car buyers purchase means another commission to the Business Manager. However, most extras purchased are not necessary. For example, car dealer will most likely offer you an Extended Service Warranty. All new cars and trucks come with comprehensive warranties so you don’t need to buy another one. Or you may be offered Paint Protection, which you can apply yourself by buying any inexpensive “over-the-counter” polymer sealant car wax. You can apply Fabric Protection yourself by buying a can of Scotchguard. You may be able to purchase Window Tinting, Alarm Systems, Pinstriping and other after-market items cheaper on your own. Rustproofing is usually applied automatically in the factory so you certainly don’t need to pay twice for it.
