It's worked pretty good for me thus far, and I have walked away from a deal because of it.
That's a pretty good idea. Are you talking about GST as well, of just their stupid fees at the end of the deal? I've been poking around looking for a truck lately, and the stupid fees at the end piss me right off. One of the guys I dealt with had a pretty hard time comprehending my insistence on getting ALL THE FEES on one piece of paper. I want a bottom line, mofo. Not some number like $26,500 until I'm sitting with a pen in my hand and suddenly there's $400 deal fee, $2,000 warranty, $1,500 GST, $700 some other crap.

Some car salesmen are total donkeys. Give me the price. All of it. OK, I can figure out the GST myself if need be, but when I see a sticker price on a used vehicls, I expect that that is the price. Stop finding ways to tack on $2,000 afterward.
