Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

How to rush a deal

Neal Cavuto on Imus right now discusses the car salesman trick of "rushing a deal." "Don't let them leave the salesroom without signing." "Now or never," "A one-day-only deal" - all the tricks.


He discusses car sales tricks, and says that is what the O administration does with legislation. I tend to agree.

In the last two years you all posted an article (very long) written by a former car salesman. I read the entire thing and blessed you for posting it. What insight I gleaned from the author, and applied it to my benefit when I bought my next car.

It would be worth a re-post if you could find it.

Rushing folks, telling them that there's absolutely no time to read a bill before voting away trillions - Can you imagine a clearer abdication of duty?

No rebate available, and after the agreed upon price, you still pay for the undercoating,floor mats, full size spare tire,clear coat, window tint,registration, and all other dealer hidden charges,like ACORN.

and by the way, did I mention the warranty is null and void?
