This guy didn't even know it was a hybrid Lexus 400h but that's besides the point.
 
That begs the question, how do you know he didn't know?

We overprice our vehicles by 3-4K on EVERY SINGLE UNIT.
 
Wait, you admit that you overprice your cars, then you get upset when an informed customer sees that and leaves?
 
More and more I lean towards siding with that guy that asked about the Lexus.

It's not a false report.
 
At best it is completely dishonest, at worst it is false (unless you live in or near 90210). You even said it was to create a false market price.
 
So if you print one out using a 90210 zip code the value of the car will be higher then if you printed it our with a local Chicago zip code. Tricks of the trade.
 
And you wonder why after being presented with such "tricks of the trade" customers act so badly towards you and your profession.
 
It's not my sandbox...I'm just playing in it.
 
While true you still choose to play in it.

Sent me an email last week and he was very much alive.
 
I hope he stays that way for a long time!

I know that he doesn't post here anymore, but does anyone have a update on him? The 'rolling in his grave' comment through me. Thanks!

It came into our shop leaking coolant yesterday. Turned out to be a corroded pile that is part of the engine block. The woman who owns it…
 
OK, I’ll bite, what’s a “pile”?
 
I’ve heard of plugs and freeze plugs in the engine’s cooling system but never heard of a “pile”. Is this just another plus/extra you get when you buy a Honda? And I don’t want a “pile of shxx” for an answer like your service dept. gave that woman.
