In my experience someone who sells an item, whatever it is, is the Last person you should ask for the truth...rare and valued exceptions to this as in every walk of life.
The 'net has been good for getting information about nearly everything, do your research and lots of it before going anywhere near a showroom.
20 years ago you'd be relying on localish word of mouth, or trusting a motoring journalist to tell the inside truth about cars...unlikely to be a motoring journalist for long then.
I have a list of people the word of which i disregard; in order...politicians, sales staff, journalists, celebrities...if you assume they have a vested interest and not to be trusted you won't go far wrong....several other groups could be added to that list, some obvious some not so.
