I have to disagree completely.
With the introduction of mass media, internet, etc. People have become more aware of better deals, how to negotiate, and where to look. I am still shocked at the number of people still going to a dealer and taking the first deal (good for a dealership), but those days are numbered with how quickly people have instant access. Instead of having to go to 10 dealerships and haggle, then go home and find reviews, books, or friends; now people can spend ten minutes, or more, online and access best interest rate, invoice price (fair market value for your region), etc.
The idea of haggling will soon die, and either dealerships will embrace this new customer awareness or not be around anymore.
