While getting Five Guys. Right before this, a salesman at a Nissan dealer smoked me up on a joint. I shit you not. I was on a test drive in a 2012 Maxima with a friend and the guy asked if we burn and when I said I do he lights up a j and passes it to me. I realize he was just trying to get my friend stoned so he'd be more inclined to buy the car that day, but he cant smoke because of work so the guy only got me stoned. Interesting tactics.

Holy shit, that guy has some serious stones to 1. Have a joint on him at work and 2. Straight up ask a customer (who could get offended) if they smoke.

The Chally or the stoner salesman? Granted, if I ever became a salesman and didn't have random drug tests I wouldn't stop smoking but I certainly wouldn't smoke up customers while they're test driving a car.

If I start smoking weed daily will it help me spend less money on cars?

oldirtybootz > Brian Silvestro

I hadn't smoked all day because I was hungover so I got good and stoned too.

Test drove two cars, fondled a bunch of others, and got high for free, I suppose I can't complain even though I still do lol.

Right?

How it should be on every test drive.

ly2v8-Brian > oldirtybootz
05/04/2014 at 21:37

both although the salesman thing is at least very sketchy but whatever. The thing with the Chally is that there isn't a two door charger (though that is what a challenger is) so you work with what you can get.

Hell, for all he knew I could have been a cop.

But it feels so right.

Off topic, am I the only one that think Five Guys is supremely overpriced for what you get? Maybe we just have better than average burger places in the Lou?

oldirtybootz > ly2v8-Brian
05/04/2014 at 21:39

Yeah, I'll accept it because the Charger is no longer a coupe, but it's like making a Ford Mustang look like the Starsky and Hutch Torino or something.

I think their patties are tasteless, which ia probably why you get so many toppings for free, but compared to real fast food I'll happily pay the extra money. Regular fast food is expensive as fuck these days anyway, for what it is.

No, not according to my checkbook.

Vicente Esteve > oldirtybootz

I think that salesman reached a new low. Or, god, imagine if he was an undercover cop or something? Thats just a nice anecdote to tell your future kids.

Manuél Ferrari > oldirtybootz
05/04/2014 at 21:43

Damn.

Plus I'll buy more food and on demand movies

I think they rape you on the burger and then 'make up for it' by filling the volume of the bag with fries no matter what size you order.

oldirtybootz > Vicente Esteve
05/04/2014 at 21:44

That could have went both ways. We could have been undercover shoppers or cops.

oldirtybootz > Drakkon- Most Glorious and Upright Person of Genius
05/04/2014 at 21:45

Lmao I even said to my friend that I think they put the empt cup for the fries in the bag with your burger and then just dump fries in to the bag. I like the extra fries, I don't like cajun all over the rest of my shit.

Drakkon- Most Glorious and Upright Person of Genius > oldirtybootz
05/04/2014 at 21:46

That's exactly what they do.

05/04/2014 at 21:46

I can attest to that. Actually, lately since I became single I haven't been buying weed and just saving that money for the bars on the weekend and getting hammered.

I couldn't imagine getting stoned while looking for a car, or ever, really. (Working for The Man (tm) does that to you.)

Also, why Maxima? For similar money, you can have a 500 Abarth, or a FieSTa or a Focus ST or a Dart 1.4T... (My top two are the Abarth, then the Dart 1.4T, both in manual...) With the 500 and Dart, you can even have change to do an ECU tune and exhaust.

overpriced compared to what? You get pretty much unlimited toppings, and all for free (xtra bacon/cheese is free too if you order a burger with it)

Vicente Esteve > oldirtybootz
05/04/2014 at 21:51

Hahah, the buyer could just be like. This thing is flying, here is a check. Serve yourself, and pass it over to the salesman.

He has his heart set on a 2nd gen CTS or current gen Max so we looked at both today. That particular Maxima was pretty damn nice actually, fully loaded with only 5k miles and they actually seemed like they'd accept his offer of $26k just to make the sale but the car was already sold but that previous deal fell apart and the car never got put back into the system afterwards or some bullshit.

Personally, I prefer my Dart. He's looking for something moderately luxurious that "looks hot" because that's what cars are all about ya know.

Manuél Ferrari > oldirtybootz

Good call! Got to get out there and hunt. We need is no good for that

exactly... I'd bet he's new and won't last long, lol

DancesWithRotors - Driving Insightfully > oldirtybootz

The Maxima is a nice car, but... No manual and it's too big and heavy for my taste.

I'll take 911 RS for $5000 > Drakkon- Most Glorious and Upright Person of Genius

It mostly depends on how far from NoVA you are (my experience). The original location is fantastic, as are the older restaurants. The newer ones... quality is extremely variable, and usually lower.

Source - my unscientific poll of Five Guys along the East Coast. While I've seen them elsewhere I never stopped to try them.

Yeah it was nice it's just sooooo not my style. If I were going big and FWD I'd go Impala probably. Even then, I like lighter cars, not boats. For the most part anyway.

Mathias Rios > oldirtybootz

I've never heard of that. Does the smell not stink up the car?

oldirtybootz > Mathias Rios
05/05/2014 at 12:07

Well we had the windows open the rest of the test drive. I'm a smoker as it is so my sense of smell isn't what it used to be. I told the salesmen at my job though and they wrre dumbfounded.
