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.

    When I was 18 I was looking at cars and I drove a 99 Cmary that day. Person at the Toyota dealer said the same thing.

    It’s a common sales tactic to relate to you and get you to be buddy-buddy with them like a sucker.
