2026 Toyota RAV4 XLE — 6 dealers contacted
Car Buying Is Broken by Design
The dealership model was built to maximize their profit — not protect yours.
Hours Wasted
The average buyer spends 4–6 hours at a dealership and visits 2–3 lots before buying.
45% say it took longer than expectedHidden Fees Everywhere
“Market adjustments,” nitrogen fills, dealer add-ons — thousands in junk fees buried in the paperwork.
Avg. $1,200+ in bogus fees per deal (Consumer Reports)Information Asymmetry
Dealers know the invoice, holdback, and incentives. You don’t. The negotiation starts on uneven ground.
Dealers trained to maximize their marginHostile Experience
Most buyers — especially women — report feeling pressured, distrusted, or uncomfortable at dealerships.
An adversarial process by designFrom Pre-Approval to Savings in 4 Steps
From financing leverage to driving home — without the dealership runaround.
Get Pre-Approved
Lock in a competitive rate from our credit union partners before contacting a single dealer. Walk in with leverage.
Configure Your Vehicle
Choose your make, model, trim, colors, and alternatives. Tell us exactly what you want.
We Negotiate for You
TrueSticker contacts every dealer in your radius, compares offers, and negotiates the price down.
Close & Save
Accept the best deal with pre-approved financing already in hand. Sign and schedule delivery.
Walk In With a Committed Offer, Not Hope
A soft pull gives you a conditional pre-approval with an indicative rate. Once you proceed, the lender issues a firm commitment letter that dealers must beat.
🔒 Check Your Rates
Soft pull only — no impact to your credit score. We match you with lenders and generate a conditional pre-approval.
Your Lender Matches
Fill out the form and click "Check My Rates" to see pre-approval offers from our lender partners.
Choose Your Lender
Rates are indicative based on soft pull. Select a lender to proceed.
Confirm Your Selection
Review your lender choice. We'll request a firm commitment letter on your behalf.
By proceeding, the lender will perform a final review and issue a firm commitment letter with a locked rate. This may differ slightly from the indicative rate above.
✓ Firm Commitment Letter Issued

- ✓ This letter is attached to every dealer outreach email

* These are illustrative scenarios based on industry data and beta testing. Names and details are representative. Individual results will vary.
We Work Exclusively for You — Not the Dealer
Most car buying tools are funded by dealers or just provide information. We’re different.
100% Buyer-Aligned
We never take money from dealerships. Our only incentive is getting you the best deal possible. Period.
We Negotiate on Your Behalf
Other tools show you data. We actually contact dealers, negotiate prices, and flag hidden fees — so you don’t have to.
Financing Built In
Walk into any deal with pre-approved financing from our credit union partners — a feature most alternatives simply don’t offer.
Technology at Scale
Our platform contacts every dealer in your radius simultaneously and manages the entire negotiation — no human bottleneck.
Transparent Flat Fee
You know exactly what you’re paying upfront. No subscriptions, no hidden charges, no dealer kickbacks.
Gets Smarter Every Deal
Our dealer intelligence database improves with every transaction — better data means better deals for you.
