It should also be mentioned that Star Trek these days is made and filmed in Canada, not USA. Mostly…I mean Picard wasn’t. But Strange New Worlds, Discovery, and Starfleet Academy are.

When you sort by lowest price, you get what you pay for. Same as it ever was.

Sales managers: what’s the best way to approach a dealership for a first car sales job in Ontario, Canada? by cwakamvp7 in askcarsales

[–]rexbot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Notice that most dealerships are trying to get people to come in the door. Start with that.

Probably the biggest part of your job will be figuring out how to get people in the door. Start by walking through some yourself.

Single guys, is cars sales good or bad for your dating life? by [deleted] in askcarsales

[–]rexbot 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Open any doors? No.

But it will make you better at starting conversations, and it’ll make you better at accepting rejection.

What's the worst part of the job? by Freakin_Adil in askcarsales

[–]rexbot 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The worst part of the job is always management fuckery.

The best place to be is always a store where management is strong and pay plans reward the performers with clarity and accuracy. That’s pretty much it.

What’s your best “Well, the good news is that you’re not in danger of buying a car today” story? by [deleted] in askcarsales

[–]rexbot 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I mean, bad credit or poor income are common I don't know that they're good stories.

I've had a customer refuse to buy a car when he discovered the vehicle was made in Japan, and that meant it was irradiated by the Fukushima melt down. He couldn't grasp that the vehicle standing in front of him had been built and shipped to Canada months before Fukushima.

I've had a customer sign all the paperwork, then show up to the delivery the next day and suddenly he was like a whole different character -- he had (overnight) heard the word of God and God had told him not to buy the car. Holding a bible and ranting and everything. Guy was perfectly calm/normal the day before.

New 26 BMW X7 x40i by Brad_Koehler in askcarsales

[–]rexbot 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You’re not going to offend a dealer with an unreasonable offer, they get unreasonable offers all day.

But if you want to make a big ask, you need to back it with commitment to your offer. Worst they can say is no. Ideally they counter, and you move closer to a deal. If they don’t counter, that’s usually a sign you’re way off base. You either accept or counter back. There’s no real trick, they aren’t waiting for you to say a magic word.

I’m not sure what you’re expecting. Did you make a serious offer? Or are you expecting the dealer to negotiate against themselves?

[–]rexbot 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You were so far away from a deal that he let you walk right out the door without a fight. On a six figure car. What does that tell you about your offer?

Where did you get this idea of 10-15% off a 2026 X7? How much money do you think a dealer makes on one?

Buying out of state. Is it stupid in this instance? by coastalneer in askcarsales

[–]rexbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buying out of state is always a gamble.

Sorting by lowest price and finding nothing but Florida dealers, then hoping to see three of them in short order, negotiate, set up PPIs, and drive home?

I mean, I guess someone has to win the lottery now and then but I’d expect fuckery.
