At the same time, you can generalize that to most automobiles. A dealer can sell at invoice and make a profit in many cases.

Anyone who pays MSRP didn't do their homework.

yeah, just because one pays under invoice doesn't mean they are stealing from the dealer. Your average car buyer negotiates a car deal every few years, whereas the car people do this 10-20 times a day. No one is going to steel from the dealer, they make it back somehow. This is truth 100% of the time, no matter how much they tell you about "how you're robbing them blind" as you sign the paperwork.

Again, do your homework as a consumer. Read up on places like bank websites or automotive magazines about how dealers operate. It's fairly impossible to screw a dealer. If you low-ball them, they'll say no.

word, sometimes they even call you and tell you that you didn't make your $1000 down payment. Or sometimes they mug you in the parking lot.
