HOLY COW!!! That is just crazy. Talk about being held captive at a dealership through a painful deal...you sure had it. Needless to say, there was NO customer service with that idiot. Glad the story turned out well in the end and bully for you in reporting the incident to Costco and getting their support by removing that dealership.

I have to agree with you in that you can have everything looking real good and your ready to jump on the deal and go for the good financing...and BLAM, they throw every negative thing they can in the deal and screw you with the percentage. After my divorce many years ago I struggled financially and had to go through a bankruptcy, but made it out alive and paid that off and passed the years of torture that you have to suffer. When I bought my first Muarano the dealership took advantage of that and I didn't get the best financing I could, but I did stay at the dealership for hours to fight from 12% all the way down to 5%. Now I have very good credit and that was very helpful when I bought a new Murano last year.

I just don't know how some people live with themselves, when they are so dishonest and evil in their position as a car salesman. An another thing I really hate is when they can't break you down, they bring in their boss...the big guns to try to pour on more intimidating methods.

Next time I buy a new car, I may be brave and sell my trade in on the outside as I know I can get more money. Then I am going to drug the coffee of the dealer that is working with me...maybe some sodium pentothal, prozac and valium...LOL
