Why a car questions column?
Thank you again for reading Cory’s Car Questions, I hope we have been of some use to you.
I have been asked by both people in my industry and people shopping for vehicles a simple question. Why? Why write an article helping people make educated vehicle buying decisions?
Don’t you want people in the dark about your profession? Isn’t that how you make more money? My answer has been the same since I started in this business, an educated automotive consumer is by far our best customer.
An educated consumer does not come to the dealership and expect to buy a vehicle valued at $20,000 for $10,000. He or she does not buy a vehicle from me and then talk to people who tell them they overpaid and become upset with me or my business. They do not tell people they feel they were “ripped-off” or duped, because they know a good deal and what a good deal for them is.
It is a shame that my industry has received such a black eye at times, because all the information is out there and all people have to do is a little homework to make their car buying experience a pleasant one.
Remember, dealerships have a lot of people watching them: the media, local, state and federal government as well as lawyers hoping to make a quick buck by praying on businesses that actually produce something.
For the most part no reputable dealer is trying to rip you off. The price of the vehicle is stated, the payments are explained and the vehicle is available for your inspection and test drive. If you do not like anything stated above you simply do not have to buy the vehicle, there are plenty of other dealerships ready to try and earn your business.
When you buy a vehicle, you sign anywhere from ten or more documents explaining what you are doing, and again, if you do not like what you are doing, simply do not do it.
If you ask yourself the right questions and do a little work, or ask me, to find the right answers, you will find your vehicle purchasing process to be more pleasant...or even fun. After all, it is not every day that you get a new car. No matter what type of vehicle you are getting, they are not inexpensive, so if you are going to part with your hard earned dollars you should at least make it an enjoyable experience.
You can do that with just a little research and then everyone can have a great day. Please let me know if I am able to help you. Good luck and good shopping.
