I and 3 coworkers need to go to Dallas.. Where we need to go is right next to Love Field, so of course, thinking about flying.

I haven't flown into a Bravo since they were TCA's and never to KDAL.

Suggestions for an FBO there that will not scoff at my skylane and loan us a car? I'll buy gas.

I know it's under the KDFW Bravo. Any suggestions for dealing with them? We'll be going during business hours.

You had better take a look on Airnav.
Fuel prices range up to $8.33/gal. There will likely be ramp and handling fees. Call all the FBO's first and find out what they are willing to do.
It can be a very rude surprise to find out what that stop at Love Field will cost you.
Departures can take a while at the wrong time of the day, especially if your IFR.
You might consider Dallas Executive or Addison or Mckinney.

I expected ramp or landing fees, especially since I need to park and borrow a car for a couple of hours.

I called business jet, $45 fee waved with 10gal purchase. That would be about what the 182 would take to fly GTU to DAL.
We'd be VFR.

According to AirNav.com, Business Jet charges $6.10/gal for 100LL- they'll waive a $45.00 fee if you spend $61.00??

Pay the fee and save the money, especially if you don't need the fuel or go to Dallas Exec (KRBD; 10 NM south) to Ambassador Jet Center for NO ramp fee and $5.65 100LL.

into B?  go IFR,  file direct, they will route you with vectors anyways, then you don't have to beg for a slot
