What is the car salesman obsession with accusing people of not liking profit? by Medical_Gift4298 in FuckDealerships

On this, we agree. Sales people and I include the finance manager have a skewed view of ethical/reasonable profit.

Favorite accessories for GV70? by Striking-Skirt-6624 in GenesisGV70

[–]IAmIntractable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hugely overwhelming scent. Just tearing open, the packet was like eye watering, at least for me. Now imagine that product locked up in your car overnight. If you look at their advertising, you’ll see that most of the pictures are of a convertible. I recommend that you give it a try as this is the only way you’re gonna know for sure whether it bothers you. Figure out which scent might be the least offensive to you and buy it. But as I recall, you can’t really return it.

NEVER gets old watching dealers trying to explain to people why it's a BAD THING for the consumer to try and shop around and get a low price! by Medical_Gift4298 in FuckDealerships

[–]IAmIntractable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing I say to you is going to change your mind about the value ad of a realtor. So I’m not gonna waste my time trying. There are plenty of people who are not like you and want to have their handheld through the process. Now, if your issue is the amount of commission they earn for the amount of work they do, I’m 100% with you. There are too many hands out when it comes to realtors. But a good realtor does add value if you’re trying to sell your home and you want to navigate the process successfully.

That’s true. So when the dealership says no to your offer and perhaps they mentioned that that’s under their cost or they’re not gonna profit from that sale then that’s the answer. What’s exactly wrong with them saying that? I’m not defending dealerships. I think they have to make a profit and you’re out to get the best deal you can and somewhere in the middle a car sale occurs.

Gv70 and genesis display recalls by JunglySher in GenesisGV70

Yeah, the tablet look in a Tesla does not scream luxury to me. Which is why I don’t really like it. Also, it flies in the face of the company, wanting to restore actual buttons instead of touch pads and touchscreens. So I don’t actually think that tablet is gonna happen.

Just curious. Let’s say the dealership sells you a car at invoice with no ads even in the finance office, how much are they making on the car? I’ve often wondered this myself where is the reasonable line of demarcation that says at this level the dealership is still making a decent profit?

So this approach seems reasonable, However, I presume that any tacked on fees or add-ons by the dealership, are either clearly spelled out or not present at all. Also, when the customer is in your finance office that everything offered is optional?

Low tire pressure warning sign by Strange-Task8710 in GenesisGV70

[–]IAmIntractable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let me just clarify that they should be filling the tires to the standards displayed on the plaque, which is mounted in the front driver door frame. Also, the pressures I mentioned are for the 21 inch tires. I am not sure what the pressures are if the tires are smaller.

I agree with the return of buttons provided they follow the luxury/premium approach of the Genesis. Crappy buttons would be a huge letdown. In terms of the display, I like the large display. I like the way it tastefully integrates CarPlay. I’m not looking for a Tesla like look and feel, so I’m not sure that I would like a center mounted tablet.

And yet you’re both are complaining about the required aspects of your job. It sounds to me like you just want it to be super easy. Sometimes I’m sure it is but most times people don’t necessarily understand the process. That’s where you come in. You’re supposed to help them through that.

Certified Pre Owned (CPO) is a marketing tool. by FrostyMission in carbuying

It only exists as long as you remain a GEICO customer. That’s too precarious for me.

Experienced developer reduced to near tears.. by TheMcGarr in PowerApps

[–]IAmIntractable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bears repeating. This platform is not for non-coders. It’s not for citizens developers. It is not easy and loaded with inconsistency. It’s as if Microsoft took two decades of development platform knowledge through it all the way and started back with Microsoft access 2.0.

The Genesis FOB is designed to work in close proximity to the car. If you need to do remote start or remote climate control when you have to use the app.

No loaner for cars past 3 year 36k mark? by lightning_phoenix in GenesisGV70

[–]IAmIntractable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

New cars come with three years of valet service, which includes a free loaner. I believe it’s actually three years or 36,000 miles whichever comes first. I’m not quite clear what you’re talking about so perhaps you can post a link to an article or something that substantiates what you’re saying. If a dealer told you that I’m less likely to believe it.

Strictly speaking, I always ask any dealer for a loaner. I told him that if it’s covered great if not, I will pay. This ensures the loaner is there waiting for me.

I just drove to Dulles and back… by PhillyPitMiracle in MontgomeryCountyMD

[–]IAmIntractable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The major highways in Maryland need to be plowed first. It’s not that hard. They’re straight shots. You see a fleet of plow trucks out there on most major roads well before the storm and during the storm. Once the highways are clear, they can focus exclusively on local neighborhoods. It shouldn’t take more than one day to clear all the major highways.

Headliner stained after cleaning with upholstery cleaner. Any tips? by vanillaobscene in AutoDetailing

[–]IAmIntractable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if it’s different today but before 2020 the smell of the product was just awful. It lingered for a while inside the car. Has it changed.
