So You Want to Buy a Car

This ad is not intended for legal advice. It is written with life experience. I probably have already made your mistakes. So ya want to buy a car,huh?

1. Go to the car lots perhaps on a Sunday when the dealer is closed. Go with someone who has had the experience of a purchase as this instead of a buddy who will tell you what you want, and laugh at you down the road when the car he or she helped you buy ends up on a flat bed.

2. Look underneath your dream machine. Do you see puddles of oil and water. If you see this it may bebest described as a rainbow. Sometimes when oil and water mix and end up on a car lot the puddles you see are multicolored. Do not make a wish on this type of rainbow because your wish will not come true.

3. Glance inside the car, check out the interior. With your notepad you brought with you have a checklist if what you notice such as car mats, tears, radio. These things can dissappear prior to your purchase.Oh yea,If you get that Corvette you can detail it yourself, or you can pay the sales staff to do it for easily a three diget number that you get to pay in your payments. Inquire about this. This writer would demand a full tank of gas upon purchase or would not buy the car.

4. Do not count on newspaper specials. Many sales-people will say they did not see the ad. You must have some pity for car salesman, but not too much.

5.You see something you like, and you cannot wait till Monday. Yea, I have been there. A good sales person can read you better than a criminal profiler. You see desperation sells, and smells. A question the dealer may ask you is "If I can put you in this car today would you be able to purchase it? I answered "How bad do you want me in that car? Many dealers school the sales staff in selling and human behavior. They are taught about unsure consumers who are just looking. Remember it is in there best interest to make the most off of a consumer, just like any other job. Not all car people are dishonest, but listen to your gut instincts.
