<VV> Re: Car Salesmen/Manufactures (no Corvair)

[J R Read_HML]

I see the same guys at my local Cheby dealer whenever I'm there for 
service - at least the new car guys.  I think they start the new guys in the 
used car/truck show room.  I don't buy my cars there 'cause I got a cousin 
100 miles away who sells them, but get all (well most of) the service work 
locally.  One of the salesmen, whom I've gotten to know over the years grew 
up in the town where my cousin is located.  His mother buys her cars from 
him and gets them serviced at my cousins' place.  Seems fair.

When I buy a new one, I pick up the brochure locally - check it over and 
call my cousin.  We go over the options (and any recent changes thereto) and 
pricing and I place the order.  When the car comes in, it only takes about 
20 minutes to get everything done.  Sometimes I buy lunch and sometimes he 
does.  Sometimes I have a trade in and sometimes I don't.  Last time, I did 
and he cut me a check for it.  GM was offering 0% at the time - so I used my 
check at the bank to buy a CD!
