I was 16, young and about stupid but I wanted a new car. So I go walking into a dealership with my boyfriend, the salesman asks what we were looking for so I tell him, I have a look around, I decide which color and say "ok, whats the cash price." He laughed, literally, laughed. I turned and walked out without saying another word and go to the dealership a block away, find what I want make the deal and pay cash that afternoon.
A week later I follow my dad to the dealership so he can drop off his truck for some work, out the door walks the same salesman greets my dad by name and says "oh I didn't know this was your father, have you decided on that truck yet?" I turned around and pointed at the one I bought down the street and said, "I sure have, bought it the same day you laughed at me paying cash for that one over there, wanna see the sales sheet?" He looks at my dad and my dad says to him, "don't look at me, she's the one with money in the family, not me, you know I have financed every truck I have bought here."
$28k(was a lot for a truck in 1988) and a little bit of my dad's dignity later, the salesman was a little embarrassed to say the least.
