Why this matters
A written OTD price is a number you can hold a dealer to. Pricing only given by phone or in person changes when you walk in — that’s the whole point of refusing to put it in writing. Dealers who won’t quote OTD over text or email are choosing to keep the final price negotiable until you’re sitting at their desk.
