I admit that my current Posse Mobile was from CarMax and I went by myself and bought it for myself. I also had young Things with me when I went to sign the paperwork, etc., and told them, "If this isn't done with some sense of expeditiousness, my kids are going to freak the hell out, and I will drive my old car right the hell out of here. So, full disclosure and all... you know, so..." I admit that I was there for more than an hour, but they had a huge play area and they were ok. I admit that I don't flip out on sales people, I just tell them going in, "I have just so much patience in this process. If I don't like you, or the car I test drive, I will leave and go somewhere else, because I can." I admit that a couple of places that I saw vehicles that I liked, I called and talked to the sales guys in advance, and have already told them that I have several places that I'm checking out, and if I like the car at their shop, and it gets sold before I make a decision, so be it. It's just a car, and they will have to get their commission from someone else." I admit that two of them gave me a "blink-blink"... I just know it, I sensed it over the phone. I admit that I never take a man with me when I buy a car because the sales people talk to the man and not me. I admit that when I bought my current car at CarMax in 2004, the salesman asked if my husband was going to need to see it and test drive it first. I admit that I said, "If he actually had money to pay for it, or I actually cared what he thought, maybe yes... but I'm in the middle of divorcing him, so better just impress me, ok?" (The salesman laughed and said he deserved that from me.) *nite nite, all*
