I can picture Sir's internal monologue: "Grumble, grumble. Leaving me out there all night... Grumble, grumble. Jerk! ...But you keep me warm human, and you're gonna do that ALL MORNING!"

One of the big things I looked at with cars was MSRP (Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price). That was always my staring point, so if they were charging significantly more or less, I can ask why and go from there.

Kelley Blue Book is good for estimating average value as well. They've got a free website to that effect .

Good luck!
