Trading in my dream car for a Toyota hybrid for longevity, lower maintenance costs, and lower insurance costs.
Putting together the final paperwork when the warranty packages are introduced.
I decline all but the manager insists on one of them alone specifically covering electronics (and everything else for 10 years). He says that the newer Toyota’s electronics are expensive to replace and commonly malfunction or break. I figured this is just pushing warranty, but he got to me mentally and broke my confidence in the brand.
Was this guy just trying to get me to spend more money, or is there truth in his tale?
I heard the same pitch. I think next time I buy a car I’ll have more fun with it, and ask “if you think the car you’re selling me is going to break, why don’t I try another dealership?”
Remember you’re in control. All they want in the world is your signature. Bump the price down for every second they waste your time, and always be willing to walk
Smart!
