Well, what made me so mad was the fact that the day before I'd went with
one of my friends (Who is also 19) to a Ford dealership because he wanted
to test drive an Explorer, he told the guy basically the same thing I told
the Dodge dealership, that he was just looking around and wanted to see
how it drove, the guy immediately went inside got the keys, handed them to
my friend and hopped in the back with us and off we went (Never asked to
see his driver's license or insurance card, I got asked for both at the
Dodge Dealership) for about a 10 mile test drive. The fact that I had no
trouble the day before getting a test drive, and the next day I got blown
off. Oh well, I do know that the next new vehicle I buy, I'm going to
drive right up to the front door, find the salesman that blew me off, and
tell him, this commision could've been yours if you weren't such a prick
to me, then walk out.
