While they attract fools into thinking they're getting a good deal, for me I mainly shop based on MSRP since rebates and crap are such a pain even price shopping, so if I see a cavalier for $17k and a sentra for $15k, I won't be going to any freaking chevy dealership.

Trust me, they do not get MSRP on fleet sales. More like a few hundred over invoice or less depending on the company.
