Exactly

Hey man, I'm leading the board with 10 cars out. I'm happy! I'm always 2-3 cars behind. I'm usually 2nd or 3rd on the sales board.

How to know whether or not Mosaud is having a good sales month. Just wait. He'll tell you.

Glad you're doing well at the car sales business, Mosaud1998. Keep it up. You'll be manager soon, if that is a goal for you.

Yes then HE will be able to tack on $30k to MSRP on their vehicles.

No, that's the GM. He has a way to go to get to that top spot.

Our "New" car "manager" doesn't do shit but sit his ass up at the tower and sleep.

GM does what the new car manager should be doing.

Yup, it is a goal for me. I appreciate the kind words

I do a lot more for a salesman. I help everyone out. I'll go out and evaluate trades, move cars around the lot to make sure the lot looks good and full. I'll help the porters, etc.

I'd rather be a used car manager since I know a good amount about used cars and don't mind evaluating trades etc. Even though there's more headache involved being a used car manager.

There's more money in used cars than new.

Not much of a markup in new cars unless the dealer marks up the MSRP or slaps add-ons.

Trust me, you do NOT want to be known as a "used car manager". LOL.

Yes, that is the truth.

One of the worst things is those tacked on dealer options that we don't want.

This is why custom ordering is my preference. I get exactly what I want and no unwanted options or surprises. I don't mind waiting longer to take delivery as a result.

Do you get any discounts buying that way? I've never done it myself.

Yes, it's possible. Depends on the dealer/salesperson, etc. As of right this moment it would likely be tough simply because of part shortages, high demand, etc.

Truth. But where are the numbers and where is his age? I need to know exactly how deep into the 6 figures he is and how early into his 20s he is. I haven't seen that in a few days, which is concerning.
