If you feel clueless about buying a car, which most people are, then I would highly suggest buying Don't Get Taken Everytime by Remar Sutton. It's a great book that explains dealership gimmicks and tactics used to confuse consumers. It will help you understand the mindset of an auto salesman and dealership, and make you an informed car buyer. I had heard of some of the tactics in the book before, but the things that some dealerships do is eye-opening! If you get the book be sure to read as much as you can. However, it is long so I would pick and choose which chapters apply to you. I wouldn't even think about buying a car unless you read Don't Get Taken Everytime!
