“...in the front seat of their luxury car.”

just curious, what level of car were you purchasing? i suspect it was something well in excess of $60k, and typically considered a ‘luxury brand’—i’ve seen/heard of this type of thing that category, because they seem to recognise that people that can afford things at that level expect a specific level of…

My favorite was emailing one of them after I had emailed them for best price & they responded 4 times with “Are you still looking for a new Honda?” I sent a new email to the Internet Sales Manager that said “Bethany, let’s cut to the chase. Are you a robot? Replicant? Terminator? Wall-E? Hal? War Games? I know they’re…

Those dealers are the worst junk-mail offenders too. What I found amusing was their boilerplate “let me know if there is anything I can do...” o.O

Yep- and it’s great to find out which dealers those are, so you can make sure you NEVER set foot in them. Those are the stealerships.

There are still dealers that think the only reason for their internet sales department is to get people in the door. They often won’t negotiate or talk prices over email.

Oh god, even before Mapquest, trying to navigate anywhere outside of your comfort zone was such a pain. I remember being a kid and having to read the map for my dad while he drove, which invariably ended up at some point with him holding the map over the steering wheel and glancing back and forth between it and the…

I’m confused about the “increasing commercial real estate values” article. I don’t see anything in there about increasing values, indeed it’s pretty much the opposite, there’s a glut of retail in the country creating a lot of potentially bad debt. They desperately need values to increase, but they won’t since the web…

Other than a test drive or picking up your car after finalizing the deal, there is no reason to visit a dealership. Every outcome from visiting is detrimental to the customer. In no case are you going to get a better deal by showing up there.

I haven’t seen a single performance-oriented ad for a Chevy non-truck product in years.

I can remember one I think it was for the Malibu where the car is de-badged and one of the “real” people claims they think the car is “a mix between a Tesla and a BMW.”

That this is not universally hated across the US makes me think our great country is on the downward slope as a society.

At the risk of sounding like a Gibson apologist, which I certainly am not, Hacksaw Ridge was pretty darn good.

On a car that did as badly as the 200, it comes off a bit insecure.

They’re casting shade by... not casting shade. (Since they eliminate a building that would otherwise cast a shadow...)

I might be mistaken, but the new Chevy Cruze might have a “Screw You FCA” easter egg somewhere. I believe it’s “Oh hey Chrysler, how is that small car thing coming?”

One star for correct usage of the term “shooter hole” excellent work!

Ugh. Macron has a much more sizable lead, but the idiocy of “Why should I give Macron, whom I disagree with on some things, my vote, just because Le Pen is terrible on everything????” gives me horrible flashbacks to those absurd arguments before November 8. Anyone who genuinely thinks “I’m not voting for a candidate…

I’ll be honest, that looks better than their new grille in my opinion.

Lol dude, the Prius is possibly the most common car in big cities. There is nothing limousine-liberal about driving a Prius anymore.
