Salesmen are so fucking dumb Me: Hi, Im looking for something sporty, with a 5 speed., for around $8,000 Stupid ass salesman: Ok, heres a SUV, with an auto, for $16,000. Its nice. Me: Yes, it is nice, but im looking for a car, with under 80K miles, thats sporty and not a cheapo econobox. Stupid ass salesman: Ok, check out these neons, cavaliers, and foci Me: ok, I said I wanted something sporty. With a 5 speed. Stupid ass salesman: That neon over there has a spoiler. Me: thats fucking great, but I dont want a Neon. Stupid ass saleman: Ok, well heres a Cobra Mustang, its sporty. Me: yeah, and its $19,000 Stupid ass salesman: well, I might be able to work out the monthly payment you want. Me: I doubt it, since its about $11,000 more than Im looking to spend. :mad: Same fucking thing every place you go. I found a 99 Maxima, SE package, SOOOOO nice, but the prick wanted $15,000 for it, with 70K on the clock. :ugh: ---

I hate when they start that monthly payment shit. Tell me a) how much you’ll give me for my car, and b) how much I’ll pay for the car I’m buying. If they won’t break it out like that I won’t buy it. And if they insist on putting their sticker on the car I won’t buy it. ---

If they won’t break it out like that I won’t buy it. And if they insist on putting their sticker on the car I won’t buy it. 🤣 THe first place i went to, I took out a 01 Caddy Catera. 20K miles. It had been sitting for a while so the guy had to jump it. Took it a while to finally turn over. WE went abouy half a mile and the fucking thing broke down. Right in the middle of a busy ass intersection. Cops came, and I had to help push the car off the road. I get back to the place, and ask if they guy is gonna cut me a deal since I had to push his piece of shit car out of the damn intersection on the test drive. HE’s like "well, $13,000 _is_ a pretty good price on that car. :ugh: ---
