Bought a 5 year old Buick Park Avenue back in 2005 or 2006 from a "mega dealership" near us. I went there to look at 2 cars. The first was the Park Avenue and the other was a Pontiac Bonneville. The salesman irritated me from the start, but I kept my composure. I first asked about the Park Avenue. We took it for a test drive, then my wife took it for a test drive. It seemed to fit our needs. I asked to see the Bonneville, and was told it had been sold. I then asked what they were looking at for a cash and no trade price on the car. I was fed this line of BS about the price in the windshield is the price for the car. I thanked him for his time and told him I would go home and sleep on it. The salesman became rather "animated" and told me I needed to decide right then and there if I wanted the car or not. My response was that I never have bought a car on the spot and had to at least sleep on my decision. The salesman told me it might be gone by the time I made my mind up. I responded by telling him if the car sold, I guess it was not meant to be. We left. We went down the road about 3 miles and my phone rings. The salesman told me they would knock either $1000 or $1500 off the price if we would come back and write the sale up that night. We did. He tried talking me into a scheduled oil change contract to add into the purchase price. I told him I change my own oil, use my brand of oil and filter, I don't want anyone else doing it for me, and how I do that on most everything I own, too. He fed me this other line of BS about how he respects people like me who do that and how he helped a buddy of his "change the engine oil on his tractor and how big the transfer case was." I told him I own and operate a number of farm tractors ranging from 10 years old to 55 years old, and not a single one of them has a "transfer case" holding the engine oil. Perhaps they have a transmission and hydraulic system holding several gallons of hydraulic oil, or a crankcase holding a lesser amount of oil. What an idiot! My response shut him up! As a friend of ours told us, "There is no lower form of life on this planet than a used car salesman. I should know. I have two brothers in law who are used car salesmen."
