Message:   A friend of mine was a dealer for several decades.
The "factory invoice" or window sticker, is an after mark up price, never go by it. Every dealer has a book price and then a real invoice cost price, so you have to get past three mark -ups to get to the actual cost of a vehicle.
My auto buying from my friend was simple and took about 5 minutes, he'd open his book, show me what he paid and say, "I can sell it to you for that price plus $500."
There is usually a several thousand dollar mark-up for the dealer. As for what the true factory cost is, that is anyone's guess as the factory also marks it up several thousand to the dealer.
Currently a slow selling Grand Cherokee, or Commander has a factory discount of $8,500.
I'd say that they are both making very close to $3,000, which means at least a $6,000 total mark up. If you can get a dealer down more than $3,000 you are into house money.
Maybe George can shed some more light on this?
