Default Funny Story

Well its not hilarous, but i had to share with my Scion people. I took a phone call for Scion sales and the guy yelled at me for a hour and 35 minutes it said on my phone. he did not believe me that Scion is not negotiable, that there is no 3-4 grand mark up from the true invoice. i even explained the 3 promises of scion and he said it was bait and switch. so i said what do you drive now sir? he said a ford f150 and said " ive always driven ford, no problems, you probaly dont even sell these Scions, unless they are suckers!" i told him to do his research, on edmunds,cnn,kbb and etc.. he said i wil call you to prove your wrong. he then hung up on me

i cant wait to get his return phone call.

Just tell him the price is negotiable. It starts at the sticker and goes up with whatever accessories he wants.

I think I see your car at the Schaumburg dealership almost every morning. I work in Schaumburg, and always see a dark blue tC with tinted tails. Looks lowered as well. Is that yours?

Nice! I bought my tC from there in Dec 06, can't remember the salesman's name. I think he was a manager.

Anyways, I work at an engineering office off of Commerce dr. So I take Golf to Roselle.

Your car looks nice, I noticed you put the front plate on the grill this morning. Has it always been like that?

That sucks. I had a cop following this morning on golf. He was in the far left lane and came all the way over to me and got right on my tail. I thought he was going to pull me over so I just turned into the dunkin donuts. He didn't follow me.

Kinda funny I ran from the cops by turning into a dunkin donuts. :D
