    Not at all. They are a business...making money is expected. The point is basically I hate the games that are played. Part of the business I guess.

    Thanks for the help offer too..... I'm not looking, but if I do I'll give you a shout.

    The last one I bought was in 2005. Had a decent salesman and a trade-in. They tried to lowball me bad on the trade, so I walked. Wasn't much haggling on price as I got the fleet discount through the company I work for. I wasn't rude, just told them what I wanted (was a fair price - they have to make money too) and walked out when they wouldn't meet it or come close.

    But, I got called when I arrived home and they got within 500 of my asking price for the trade so I did it. Overall was happy.

    The only thing I didn't like was them pushing me so hard on how much I owed on my trade (which was very little). I didn't tell them because I wanted to see what they would give me. Smart? Dunno.... but the guy commented something about playing hardball then tried to lowball the hell out of me. :nono:

    Car selling tactics by dealers and salespeople have always interested my for some reason...lol.

    I'm a rock. I had a female sales person when I was looking for my truck. As I got settled into my the seat she got in and while I was looking at the side mirror to back out I saw her, out of the corner of my eye, hike her skirt up to just about crotch view. Got a free show because I walked away an hour later without the truck. I did give her 3 runs to the sales manager before I left.:D
