I find myself headed down the road of automobile purchasing hell. I'm sure everyone has at some point in their adult life travelled this road. I personally am not a huge fan of yucking it up with Bob the sales maggot in order to not sign my life away for a reliable set of wheels. Yet here I am giving out my personal information to some stranger that I know will begin to harrass me (probably in a very friendly way) when I don't spend a bazillion dollars on some piece of crap vehicle. Am I wrong here? Shouldn't I be concerned about this? While I would hope that I would be treated fairly whether I am a woman or a man buying a car, I know this will not be the case. Thankfully, I have garnered some knowledge on the vehicle I would like to purchase so I won't be stuck there with Bob (or any other sales maggot that fits the description) telling me the benefits of all the vanity mirrors in the car. Why can't they treat a woman like they would a man buying the car? Why are they discussing horsepower and torque with the guys and telling the women about the bouncy seats and hair clearance? Also, why is it that they can mark up to $10,000.00 off a car during a sales clearance (THEY ALL MUST GO!!!) and not just give you that price up front? A little honesty would go a long way. I would love to hear a salesperson say, well it ain't pretty but it will get you from here to there for a long time as opposed to it's a beauty isn't it, all the bells and whistles and then it falls apart just as you leave the lot.
