I live in Southern California. Trust me Im aware. But just because the market is hot doesn’t make greediness right. Read more

I had to dig for it but its 17.2 cubic ft. As with most of these SUVs and Crossovers with 3rd rows, cargo room behind the last row isnt impressive.  Read more

Oh I know. Ive stayed there before as a kid. Me and my family are from Southern California but we briefly lived in Sausalito. So when we would make the trek from up north back down south and back, Harris Ranch was usually where we would stay. I say random because outside of California many haven’t heard of it and its… Read more

Yea the reason we do screen shots is because you cant just simply go lifting images from anywhere on the internet anymore because of $$. So rather than get into some legal trouble we do screenshots and use images when we can. Read more

This is correct. Financially literacy for most people only goes so far as them knowing that paying their bills on time is good, and not doing it is bad. They don’t know or understand that paying on time on a 84 month loan is not as good as they think it is.  Read more

Yep. Been hearing it since I was a kid. Universal City Nissan is well known for dealing with sub prime buyers.  Read more

Oh most definitely. With stuff like this the blame goes all around. People should now what they are getting into by reading everything thoroughly before signing. Read more

Yea its bullshit. So say for example, you made all your payments on time, even beating the interest, and the final payment on your loan is $383.22. Your regular payment was $452.66. Since the final payment is lower than what your regular payment was, they want you to make that $383.22 payment along with the $452.66.… Read more

Right. I thought he was surprised at the 117 percent increase. Read more

I rounded up. 

I totally agree. The list is less customer perks and more a validation of the flaws in dealership customer service. The basic things they are pushing as pluses are things dealers should have or have been doing for years. The full tank of gas is really strange as most if not all new cars include that on the window… Read more

I stand corrected. Read more

Yamaha used their musical arm to develop the electronics needed for the enhanced engine sound in the LFA. It was directed towards the driver. Read more

Thats pretty good and probably right on the money. It’ll be more mall parking lot runner than trail blazer with that extra length. Read more

For one, liability. I can tell you as someone who has worked for AAA, thats all its about. They use independent contractors who for the most part dont want to touch or deal with EV’s.  Read more

The dealer is no longer under the same ownership. Its still there though but under a different name. But It wouldn’t make sense to name the dealer now as it would do a disservice to the current dealership and some could imply that they were the ones that did it. Were they still around I would most definitely name them… Read more

Ha It occurred to me many times over the years. But I get satisfaction that he lost his job over this. I hope he didn’t land somewhere else though. Read more

I was about to say this. We had the bubble Taurus. Best family sedan I had ever encountered. It did 135 thousand miles before the transmission blew. Read more

Thats exactly what happens. I remember when I was in the business. Me and a service tech had to go repo a Pontiac Vibe from this guy. We had him to agree on a down of 2k. He would bring in a thousand one week and the next thousand another. He brought the first thousand. Next week came. He never showed up with the… Read more

As someone else noted, sending someone off without an absolute approval is common. Especially, like in the instance of my mom, if the deal is being done on a Friday or weekend.
