Default A Scion dealer owes me a commission

I told the story a few week ago about how a store manager wanted to know all about my car. Well, I drove past there today and there's a new BCP xB parked in his space.

I await my check.

My dealer sent me a letter asking me to send references her way. Unless I get a piece of the action I'm not telling anyone anything. Why should she get something for nothing?

My dealer pays something like $50 or $100 for everyone I send in who buys one. They just have to mention my name.

Haven't done it yet, but I have a few people who're going for tC's and xB's after tax season.

A friend of the family was looking at my XB with great interest. When I crashed and got the Outlander, they asked me to show them that one too (the Outlander...not the crashed XB). I was sure that with my XB out of the way, they would feel confident in being unique in our neighborhood.

After all that, they bought a Ford Escape...USED...with 27K on it! WTF??!! I know it's different strokes and all, but wow.

Well, its kind of customary for the buyer to pass the information off. Thats how i bought mine, and if anyone asks where / how i bought my box, ill definently pass the dealer's card their way.

Well I could understand buying a box but an Outlander is a Mitsu pile. As they say different stroker for different folks.

I would say it is only customary for a happy customer to pass the info on. These days dealers don't seem good enough to pass the info on.
