Thanks guys. That's EXACTLY how I want to do it.

I did a similar thing before. Figured out how much a new Explorer would cost w/ my specific package. Then I called about 5 dealers and told them what I wanted. Told them to give me the best price they could, no haggling at all. I would immediately drive down w/ a checkbook and pay it ASAP w/ the best price. Worked for me, but carsdirect seems a little easier.
