You must be young. You need to find someone with sense to help you with the car buying process. Your mom and her husband are not it if they still hadn’t figured out the dealership and sales guy were shady at that point.
Lol, car salesman making condescending remarks on someone else's job! That's the funniest shit I've read all day!
I swear half the popularity of Tesla is being able to avoid dealerships/saleslizards
Previously we seemed to have decent luck at Toyota dealers but for one car we had such a bad experience that we went to a different dealer and said we’d be willing to pay more if the original saleslizard doesn’t get a commission.
I definitely don’t even understand - when a customer has something very specific they’re looking for, how do you waste both your and their time and abuse the customer enough to lose an easy sale? I can see the attempt to upsell but come on, try something that might work
They just don't want to sell electric cars because they don't get the long tail profits on oil changes and tune ups.
