So I’ve been shopping for an EV the past few weeks, and the last 4 dealerships I went to, the dealers all said the exact same thing. Whichever vehicle I went in to look at, the sales person would say “Oh, I own that vehicle as well, and I love it! I’d show it to you, but my wife has it today.”

Is this just a sales tactic, or a legit coincidence? I suppose it’s not strictly an EV thing, but this is the subreddit I’ve been browsing recently.

    I used to work in a commission based field. I overhead a coworker with a customer one time say, “I’ve got one and I love it. Best purchase I made.” I asked him when he got it since I remembered he had a different one.

    “Nah man, I dont own that. But to make a sale? I’ll tell people I own one of everything here!”
