As someone who sells Buicks and GMCs for a living I can tell you that it is very frustrating that Buick is the proverbial-unwanted-whatever-metaphor-won’t-offend-you. Their marketing is terrible. Annual push around March Madness and little else. I’ve seen a few spots lately highlighting Alexa and crap that most…

This is called arguing from the exception. It’s a classic example of a logical fallacy. 

Highline salvage vehicles is a very profitable business. I’m a GMC dealer, but I know a guy who won’t even take in a vehicle that isn’t salvaged/rebuilt title and won’t deal with anything under $100k original price.

Hi. GMC dealer here. All of my custom order customers get it in writing that they will pay MSRP less any rebate that may exist when they take delivery. No exceptions. Just because you’ve dealt with assholes doesn’t mean we all are. 

Seriously, pick any base level Ford in the past few years, if the criteria is just buttons. I sell Buicks and GMCs. We haven’t had a Cascada since they first came out and they forced us to take two, so there’s no love lost at its cancellation. But to pick it as your example of “worst”? You didn’t even try to think of…

I sell cars. I can’t tell you how obnoxious it is to tell people to negotiate before going to see the vehicle. You may as well tell everyone to waste the time of as many sales people as they can find.

GO TOUCH THE CAR. It won’t bite you. Trying to do the whole thing online is a massive pain. I have plenty of customers…

I sell GMCs. Yes, there are plenty of truck buyers like that. But there are also PLENTY who are looking for a functional truck with good gas mileage. That is particularly common among those who actually use their truck as a truck. When someone is buying a truck as a tax deductible business expense and planning on…

I can’t get my head around this. I keep seeing people say that the others are nicer. I’ve done side-by-side comparisons. The Ford is WAY outdated, and the Ram has materials (at least in upper trims) that look nice at first but do not age well. There are literally dozens of used 2019 Ram 1500s for sale locally right…

The funniest part of this ridiculous, er, groundbreaking reporting is this: “The potential issue was spotted by journalist Kamil Kaluski of Hooniverseon the floor of the New York Auto Show”

Um... this issue was spotted a year ago, when the function was first teased. I sell the trucks. I’ve sold many of them. (My…

So, by “truck”, what you really mean is “truck-ish”. Obviously not a pickup. Definitely not something with any more towing capacity than a Buick Enclave. Just...ride height? 

Isn’t it interesting that you foresaw the problems with this slide, but the owner didn’t? I mean it seems obvious that safety should be a consideration when building any waterslide, let alone the world’s tallest. (In case you haven’t heard, the owner and the contractor who built it were both charged with murder this…

Maybe this should be updated with a note at the top to summarize that this interview was done when the slide opened and a couple years later a 10 year old boy was decapitated on it, and it turns out no actual engineers had anything to do with the design of the slide, and the owner and contractor have been charged with…

Frankly it’s guides like this (and numerous videos on YouTube) that make it seem so seamless and problem-free, as long as you are using the right hardware, that convinced me to do it in the first place. I’ve lost cumulative weeks to figuring out problems with this machine that I could have spent actually being…

“You will likely be able to find support on tonymacx86.com” is absolutely laughable. Yes, there is a phenomenal amount of information there, but it is incredibly difficult to determine what to do if you’re a casual user who doesn’t deal with all of these utilities and their numerous functions all the time. And when…
