Yep, that's what I'm talking about.

So funny how poorly this would go for me. I'd just tell the guy he's being a dingus and go to a neighboring town's dealer in hopes of finding someone less douchey.

Salesmen are pretty good at judging what works with which people. It's still really douchey and manipulative though.

My last car purchase involved something like this but without the misogyny. I knew exactly what I wanted, for how much, and had my own external financing. The dude loudly sighed on the test drive multiple times after trying to build a rapport unsuccessfully. I was perfectly courteous to him, but I wasn't giving in to his sales pitch one inch.

Sorry guy, I view you as the cashier at Walmart and not my buddy who's gonna get me a killer deal on undercoating.
