On a car like the Ford Taurus, which most Ford dealers will have 30+ models in stock, there's a greater potential. My parent's credit union offered a 'car buying' service, similar to AutobyTel, which saved them over $3000. I think they had to drive about 300 miles to pick it up, but hey three grand is three grand. -- ________________________________ Calvin White cwhitenopsamonet.net
