[TheForge] Fw: Evolution Rage

[David E. Smucker]

Bob,  I don't think this is legal in most states -- warrantee starts form 
the date of retail purchase.  On autos it starts from the date of retail 
purchase and the miles on the clock.  (Don't let some salesman tell you the 
miles on the car before you get don't count they do.  This is one of the 
typical auto sales lies.)

I don't know why but auto salesman and dealers all seem to be crooks.  Just 
had a daughter buy a new car -- came down to the final signing and they told 
her that it would be $ 400 more because they "need to undercoat the car". 
She said to hell with you -- was ready to walk out -- lots of dealers want 
to sell cars right now.  They got real quiet and said -- "Well maybe we 
don't need to do that."  Why do they always need to pull this shit.  She 
tougher than I am -- a 34 year old nurse who knows how to stand up to 
doctors if necessary -- but still why do we need this kind of thing.

Dave
