Great points. I do realize and appreciate the pressures facing dealers - there are rude and aloof customers out in the world and a ton of time wasting. Yet I'm trying to come at this as authentically as possible. I stated I'm serious and ready to buy and it's not a good feeling to get the brush off from dealers and I'm certainly not motivated to drive 20 miles when they hand me a hollow line. I'm not a natural negotiator and don't enjoy the haggling - yet I respect an honest quote and engagement. I'm just not giving hard-earned money to a dealer who insults me out of the gate.
