Things are drastically different now. Bought a 1 year old car for cash last year after an accident totaled my old car. Dealerships have no/low inventory. We had cars sold when we were on the way to the dealership to test drive them. Any negotiation was laughed at.

Absolutely brutal.

You're lucky if the dealership actually has the car. Indeed, you're lucky if it's even been built yet. I was able to get the car I wanted for a not unreasonable price but I did have to wait 6 weeks.

Yep. Wholesale prices for desirable used cars are now often more than the new MSRP and they sell instantly. Especially for things such as the RAM TRX trucks, RAV4 Hybrids and any EV.
