i thought about trying it, but i have poor people skills and probably couldn't persuade a dog to sit, let alone a person to buy a car on their first visit to the dealership.

i like to think that id be an honest guy.... i cant imagine selling a car to anybody that i knew couldnt afford it ..... :happysad: which might not be a good trait to have in that job...

Dix Honda, here in State College, got some award from Honda for best dealership in the region or something. i talked to several sales associates - car and service/parts - and all are very knowledgable, not to mention quite friendly.

No, it's not... and you will see so many crushed dreams of people that want SUVs but have a low 300s credit rating, thus making it impossible h:

You'll get over that. Or you'll quit.

There are very few people in this world who have wonderful credit or save up for a car and pay cash.

Most people spend more money on cars than they should. The exception being with luxury brands. But Lexus, the biggest selling luxury brand in the country, sells less cars in a year total than Toyota sells Camrys.

I would never want to sell cars, I have no doubt I could, but I would rather wait tables than work retail sales.
