"Do you have football stuff in your car or maybe a bumper sticker or did he just make a good guess?"
He happened to make a random comment about his favorite football team and it went from there.
My point was that when I saw him approaching the car when we first pulled in (before we even stopped), I expected the worst - and even expected I wouldn't be able to deal with a store like this. But, in the end, it was enjoyable.
Joel, that is absolutely hilarious. Please, please just copy & paste it into your blog so that more people will see it. My spleen hurts from laughing.

That's because they all read "Stories From the Frontlines".... which if you read through all the posts that you can pretty much put together what makes a good quality salesman.
If any of the stores that they work at were near me and I was in the market for the brand they sell, I would probably go to their stores over another. Most of the salesman that post over there I would presume have a lot of the things that make up a "quality" salesman.
Of course they are still salesman and still need to make a living so I would expect that they would still do their job and make as much money as possible in each sale

Once he's proven he knows nothing about the car you are interested in he has to ask:
"What can I do to earn your business?"
