Day Two: Car shopping
We visit the Willmar dealership, they ain't got the car we were gonna look at. They say it's at the Detail/body shop. SalesDude calls that shop, and says he'll go get it and bring it back in 10 minutes. 30 minutes later he drives up in a car that's a decade older (2005) and looks like a teenager beat the hell out of it.
While SalesDude was gone, we troll the parking lot and find another car with possibilities, it had info sheets in window, but no price. After we told SalesDude that the 2005 car was crap and weren't interested, we tell him we are interested in a car on the other side of the lot. He asks which one. We tell him, he looks confused and says he wasn't aware of a car like that on the lot.
We take SalesDude for a walk. Show him the car. He shakes his head and looks at his phone and says he can't find it in the inventory list. He calls someone. That someone says that car was sold last week, but needs some "stuff" to finalize the deal.
We ask again about the original car we came to look at. SalesDude says he doesn't know where it's at. SalesDude says that car is probably on a run. My buddy acts like he knows what the SalesDude means. I DO NOT know what the hell the SalesDude means.
After thinking about if for 10 minutes, I ask SalesDude, What the hell is a run? He says 3 or 4 employees take a car off the lot, to drive to another Dealership to pickup a group of cars that were destined for this dealership.
As we leave the dealership, I tell my buddy that "run story" is a load of crap. He agrees.
Stay tuned,
Day three: Car shopping will likely happen in a week or so.
