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.

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.

He had also asked me about what I did for work and when I mentioned some of the stuff I did, he made a condescending remark to me too.

Lol, car salesman making condescending remarks on someone else’s job! That’s the funniest shit I’ve read all day!

They just don’t want to sell electric cars because they don’t get the long tail profits on oil changes and tune ups.
