All true. And thankfully avoidable in 2021. I just bought a new car, from a large chain dealer, 95% by SMS.

- NullPrefix 6y agoNo thanks, delivery would eat all my data allowance.
- smsm42 6y agoBought my last car this way - once I knew what make/model I want (which did require physically seeing a few), it was 100% email until it was ready on the parking lot to drive off and the papers were ready to sign. The dealers that asked to "come and talk", or "call and we'll discuss the options" just got "thanks but no thanks". Fortunately, in 21th century there are people that are willing to sell cars without bullshit, and they got the deal. And that was pre-lockdowns, now I imagine more people would be willing to work this way.
