There is a whole mountain of nuance to this, but yes, part of parenting is forcing kids to do things they don’t want to do when you firmly believe it will benefit them in their development to becoming functional adults. Nearly every parent forces their kids to do something almost every day. Eating vegetables, putting…

Driving should induce anxiety. It’s incredibly dangerous.

Wraps scare me, especially on older cars. Who’s to say it wasn’t crashed and he pulled panels from a junk yard, then wrapped it? This is no dice, even at that price. Tiptronic also kills the deal. 

It’s going to be interesting to see how Zoomers and Alphas act when they get bigger into voting.

I completely approve of naming names.

This all made perfect sense when I hit the word Texas.

Haha, knew it.

Normally when faced with these kinds of things, I just move on to another store, but I was feeling a bit spicy that day and wanted to pin this guy down  with the actual regulations. Also, I got a blog out of it. 

Lol bingo

Was it Grubbs Infiniti?

From Car and Driver, Looks like CPO has to include a warranty. So if the car is truly Certified Pre-owned by the manufacturer and is advertised as such, the warranty is included in the price of the car and should not be offered separately. Extended warranty is different.

Maybe I wasn’t clear, any CPO car comes with a factory warranty extension. This dealer was advertising a car as CPO but then trying to sell the factory warranty extension that the car should already come with.

Do you really not understand, or are you just trolling?

“I am advertising <thing A> as a thing that includes <thing b> in the advertised price.”

“Great, I will take <thing A> for the advertised price”

“Fantastic. IF you want <thing b>, that is an additional $350"

“Er, no. You SAID you were selling <thing A> that includes…

The fact that he didn’t understand that he proved your point in his own retort scenario is just remarkable....

The manager tried to retort by saying, “Well, when I go to Chipotle and order a burrito, they charge me extra for the guacamole.”

I think that is the problem.

Tell me about these non-truck or SUV’s from GM

As I understand it, Jeep charges extra to use navigation on their screens. Or you can use CarPlay for free. GM wants the sweet sweet subscription money without providing an alternative, and they are hoping consumers are dumb enough to bite. Ford is rightfully giddy about this prospect.

Ford made that decision based on the data that most people wanted a truck or SUV. It’s a risk, but it’s logical. GM is getting rid of Car Play even though the data shows everyone wants it. That decision makes no sense at all.
