Let's play the price is RIGHT !!

Ok,,

SO - today's bitch is the hassle in finding a used car - and more specifically the price for a Used Car - in this case it's Truck - but no matter same thing.....   and this rant refers to USED CAR DEALERS, and maybe ore pointed at NEW car Dealers that also - like they all do sell used cars.....

OK got it !?!?!?! this getting a price on a used truck that  a Car Dealer has listed on the CAR FAX , and KBB web sites..  A nice Ford F150 - ample Photos so I can see the vehicle inside and out,,,,   77 Photos  - wow - like this was a 1st child ,.. they even took pictures of the door Jams !!  Cool - ...

Ok so I click the Link that SAYS "GET A QUOTE" - now - If you are purchasing a can of Beans say or a Pair of Shoes... mostly insignificant purchases in one life the price is right there on the can or shelf and posted right on the shoe box !!  Correct ??  But a vehicle that is a MAJOT purchase in ones life - for most of us ,,,,,  you have this cat and mouse game ,,, to find what the price is  ...l  So I clicked the GET A QUOTE ,,, and here is what I got back,,

Hi Mark.This is Joanne from XXXXXX. I am in receipt of your interest in our 2014 Ford F-150. Thank you for the opportunity to earn your business. The 2014 Ford F-150 is an excellent choice with very low mileage, tonneau cover, side assist steps, spray-in bed liner, single owner and a clean Carfax report. This vehicle is available and ready for immediate delivery.
I would like to extend an invitation to you to visit with us and test drive this F-150. In scheduling your visit, I have appointments available today at 12:15pm, 4:45pm or 5:45pm or tomorrow at 11:45am or 6:15pm. If these days and times do not work for you, what would work best so I can set aside some time for you?


Do you prefer email or phone? I look forward to hearing back from you and assisting you further. Thanks again for the opportunity to earn your business Mark. Have a great day.


DO YOU SEE A QUOTE  ???  I sure as hell do not !  What I see is info I already know  What Dealer the Truck is at ... What make and Model the Truck is... The options that are on the truck - and BTW what are listed as options are mostly standard equipment. The Car Fx Report - which I already saw !. the Mileage - Again - SEEN IT !  I am guessing you need and invite to visit the Dealership - cause she extends me one... and Even needs to schedule me an appointment to test drive the truck ..... Do  prefer an Email or Phone contact ??  What I prefer is what I asked for - A PRICE !!!

My Response was fairly pointed - I resent the Request for a Quote - they don't call 'em Prices.  I pasted in the Link from the Web that said "REQUEST for Quote" and asked If I needed to send that to a different department to get the Quote .  I thanked her for the info on the test drive.  and again,,, stated that what I preferred was  Price on the Truck !




This is the End ..............

I think the Country and our Political game has struck a new low...

Bombs - 10 of them so far - delivered to Democrats or The president's political opponents - people who have spoken poorly of tRump.....  I do not need to be an FBI investigator to see a pattern here...
If I understand correctly - the news is reporting that the Bombs could not explode.  humm  ok,,

Lou Dobbs - says Fake news = Fake Bombs

Does it look like the NYPD officer in the Bomb suit is about to  go get a FAKE bomb??? 
Tell Lou to go F himself !  And Rush  (ASSHOLE)  Limbaugh suggested that this was a Democratic plot - that they sent these FAKE Bombs to themselves and then would report it in the Media as if they came from Republicans -  NOTE  see my Suggestion for Lou Dobbs only insert Limbaugh's name.

The Shitheel in the White house almost sounded Presidential for a minute says that the attacks on each other, and calling for us to unify,,,,  but then of Course he double-d down on where he thought the blame lied -  The news media “has a responsibility to set a civil tone and to stop the endless hostility and constant negative, and oftentimes false attacks and stories,” he told the crowd. On Twitter the following morning, he made his position even more clear. “A very big part of the Anger we see today in our society is caused by the purposely false and inaccurate reporting of the Mainstream Media that I refer to as Fake News,”  - Seriously - ???? What an Asshole .. he as to be the #1 person - leading the Divisions in this country. 

I don't know where we are headed .....  I am betting this can't keep up ... there will be an Explosion - if I can use that word - even of its not of the Actual explosion kind.... IT cannot be that one side or the other is all correct and the other side is all Incorrect... It can't be that we are the good guys and THEY are the Bad guys.. 



Let's do some music,..
