Being engaged in the process of buying another car at the moment I am amused/appalled at the lack of knowledge & attitude of some/most of the uninformed arrogent young male sales staff.
I get the distinct impression that one is supposed to to glad to be able to buy a car off them, that is buy the car they want to sell as opposed to the model one expressed an interest in (&with clearly spelled out reasons)
We have met a couple of exceptions, one gentleman, in the trade for twenty years, the other a young woman who could be a farmers daughter.
One pup even tried to mislead me that traction control was the same as a vehicle stability or electronic stability package control.
I was civil & polite but boy o boy were the wife & the daughter not comparing notes in respect of his failings as we left the dealership.
The wife should be going back today to a particular dealership to deal with a particular agent with whom we established an easy rapport last week.
