Knowing Uber, probably only 1/2

Hey, Tom, ever hear about just introducing yourself like a normal person? Could’ve easily figured out that they have an office in the building if you had been even slightly sociable.

CT4-V doesn’t sound any better

Is anyone really supposed to say “CT5-V Blackwing” out loud when describing their car? It doesn’t roll off the tongue smoothly at all. Instead of it coming out five vee, it just sounds like fivey. 

When you are selling something like a piece of furniture, you can’t really throw it in the trunk and bring it to the nearest wal-mart parking lot, lol

Yes, then there are the ones you think you’ve made a deal with, but the second you give up your address, they disappear.

If you want to throw a dealer an offer on a car, at least take a few minutes to go on the various car sites and see what the MSRP, is, what the invoice is, the rebates are, and whatever the “fair” price that sites suggests. That needs to be your baseline, not $5-10k less. Nothing more annoying to a car dealer that the…

Eh, I’d say that with people spending so much more time at home, they’ve had a chance to look around and ask themselves “why do I still own that?” When you are stuck at home, eventually cleaning and organizing seems like a good idea.

I hate the black grill. It just looks like it’s missing the grill altogether.

Gas is still in the $1.80 range in my area. Perhaps because no one is driving, the gas stations aren’t refilling their tanks with the cheaper gas yet.

Because in 2020 America we can NEVER suggest personal responsibility as a solution to our problems. NEVER.

Most of the time the “30 minute talk” isn’t intentional. The salesman has to wait in line behind every other salesman trying to work a deal. Sometimes the managers are too busy looking at YouTube videos to help the salesman, and just make them sit there and wait. 

So the idea is to pay $1200 for the opportunity to pay thousands more in repair bills? Couldn’t you just pay the $1200 to have someone punch you in the face a bunch of times?

This is a good point. There’s probably plenty of TP in every closed office building.

“I’ll come back” is the start of the extra squeeze, because the salesman already knows that you aren’t coming back.

Dealers don’t pay interest on the loans right away. They typically get 60-90 days to sell a car before they have to start paying interest on it. That’s why they push so hard to sell certain cars. You could have 2 identical cars, one that’s been there 3 days, another that’s been their 95 days. The dealer will always…

Tesla can get away with their casual approach to selling cars because they have no real competition. They are still in the honeymoon phase where everyone who shows up at a Tesla store is predisposed to want one. Legacy brands that have actual competition know that if you don’t buy a car from them RIGHT NOW, there is…

Didn’t GM tell us that they lose $20k per $59,995 C8? Not much motivation for them to produce a lot of them.

This “audit” thing is a bunch of BS. How many customers can they pull that stunt on? It’s not like they are doing a monthly audit of every vehicle they’ve ever sold. That would be insane. So that’s just the excuse they use to try and gouge the used vehicle buyer. The problem with these software upgrades is that they…

It’s really time to restore the prohibition on stock buybacks. Just like the democrats warned the corporate tax cuts of 2 years ago all went to buybacks, and since borrowing was so cheap, many corporations also took on debt to do buybacks - enriching the executives but weakening the companies. The airlines have spent…
