    A day in the life of a car salesman at a Chevrolet Dealership. I've been in the business since 2004 and created a "Dealership Life" playlist to show you my experiences selling cars for a living. Hope you enjoy!

    Hey Dave B. you stated that the new Blazer EV was equipped with the premium BREMBO brake package. Since EV's have "regenerative braking" which quickly slows down the vehicle, is the additional expense of the Brembo system really required ?!? It would seem to be an overkill option installed basically to enhance the appearance of the EV's profile. What is the price on sticker for that braking option ?!? BTW - during customer negotiations INSIDE the showroom you used the word "tense" when you should have used "contentious" as appropriate. Hope This Helps Yo ! 🤔 🔚 🔥

If you can't push a simple button (let alone turn a key), then you will have a real hard time with a steering wheel, infotainment controls, seat & mirror adjustments, etc. Give me a break! This is technology that NOBODY needed. If you can't push a button, then don't drive a car!

    I love the new Blazer EV (except for the air vents, those look pretty bad). But I am not sure I am ready to go EV yet and I can't really afford it. I am hoping to find a good deal on a low mileage Blazer in the next few months as the used car market crashes. I also really like the new Seeker Chevy announced, but unfortunately it is just for China.

    • @claybirdyshaw5737
      @claybirdyshaw5737 Год назад

      @@squadleader420 I'm not going to pretend to know exactly how it all plays out, but all signs are pointing towards prices going down. Average used car prices have fallen week over week since the beginning of the month, repo rates have had a sharp increase, and cars are selling for less at auction. At the same time interest rates are going up and we are in an official recession, so people will be less willing to spend money.
      With those facts I definitely can't see the harm in waiting and watching. I know dealers would never tell you this, that would be like a real estate agent telling you in 2007 that the house you are buying will be worth much less in a year. The prices of vehicles have simply went up at an unstainable pace for the last 2 years and will have to come back down. I don't see the new car market changing too much because the manufacturers can limit production to keep the prices where they want them, but the used cars are already out there. There are auction yards full of them, the banks are just trying to trickle them out so they don't crash the market, but unless there is a major pivot they will eventually have to run across the auction block.
      Either way, it's a chance I am willing to take. If prices stay elevated I just won't buy anything, if they come down I will.

    That’s funny. The gate. At that point of me leaving I’m like “ what are you following me?” I hate pushy people. I wouldn’t be back if they followed me outside. That’s just me. My tactic that I did twice before the pandemic and once during is I emailed multiple dealers. Picked the best one and talked over email. So much less stress. I get so pissed in the dealership. I was getting a new car every 2 years. I don’t go to that dealer anymore after like 4 cars. They were the ones that did the gate. lol

    • @DaveBsellsChevy
      @DaveBsellsChevy  Год назад

      It all depends on how it's done. I'm probably the least pushy car salesman you'd ever meet yet I've pulled the "gate" off a number of times. Reason being, buyers are taught to "walk" to get a better deal. When negotiations are done and the dealer stands firm the buyer walks thinking it'll get them a better deal mean while they actually want the car. Now they are outside stalling because their pride won't let them walk back in... on the flip side the pride of the salesperson holds them back from chasing them, solves nothing. I will always take that last chance if I feel there is a deal to be had.

    • @DaveBsellsChevy
      @DaveBsellsChevy  Год назад +1

      Fun Fact... I was told that the "Gate" was started back in the day by a dealer that actually had a manned "gate" to enter/exit the dealerships lot. The guy manning the gate was a friendly guy who would just talk to people as they were leaving... "How's it going folks.. How'd you make out today?" "oh no deal"... "Were you close"... "Who were you dealing with?" Jim! I know Jim... "Let me call Jim and see if I can get him to help you out".... next thing you know, car deal...

    Hey Dave, I know you like the Blazer (being a Chevy guy), but given the success (at least in terms of hype and customer buy in) of the Ford Bronco, I gotta ask: Can you see Chevy asking for a redo on their CUV “Blazer”?
    The OG Blazer was an iconic vehicle. Two of my uncles drove one (1980s); one of them died in his (head on with a semi whose driver was asleep at the wheel), the other still has it as a bush vehicle for hunting trips.
    The Blazer was such a game-changing vehicle, Ford moved from their Gen 1 Bronco (an International Scout rip off) to the Gen 2 direct Blazer rip-off (actually putting their F series front end on a Blazer body in the initial Gen 2 concept in 1978.)
    Now Jeep (which I drive) still has the market largely cornered in the off roader, body-on-frame segment…. Which is why Ford’s Gen 5 Bronco ripped off the JL Wrangler (ah, Ford)….. But Chevy could have done SO much more with the Blazer. The market wants it. Everything that made the Blazer great is gone with this CUV name-sharing descendent. So: Would YOU like to see a real honest-to-God, Body on Frame, rip the top off and cruise successor to the OG Blazer?

    • @DaveBsellsChevy

    I don’t understand why any electric car would have to be turned on. In a Tesla, you put in drive and go. When you stop, you put it in park and get out. The legacy car makers think that people need an “on” button. It takes 5 minutes to get used to not having an on button because it’s much simpler. The same with one pedal driving. I don’t need paddle shifters. Just give me a good level of regen braking with a full stop. One pedal driving takes about 10 minutes to get used to. Tesla has made it all so simple and the legacy car makers are just making it more complicated.

    If anyone is considering an EV, all should be aware of the limitations no one talks about regarding the power supply side of things. The government, and now OEMs are foolishly over-pushing selling EVs while the government is forcing expedited power plant closures without any grid supply replacement plans. In short, unless 300-400 nuclear plants do not begin construction within just the next few years, if you buy an EV good luck being able to charge it or find infrastructure to support it. Without grid supporting power, your EV will end up either a super expensive to operate vehicle compared to ICE, or become a garage paper weight.

      Dealerships are an asset in communities; especially smaller communities where dealerships are the major business in town. The Tesla method may be okay, but what about service? Beside sales, dealer service and parts departments are important not only for the customer but for the shops that can get parts and information only from the manufacturer.

      Right, we will just be gouged by the manufacturers instead. Better to learn to negotiate with a dealership to get a better deal in a competitive market place. Plus those negotiating skills can be used in pretty much every facet of life. You have to admit that prior to our current situation pretty much every car deal was discounted. Those days will be gone. In-fact they are already gone. The new Chevy Bolt's MSRP, Supplier, and Employee price are all the same.

I also saw the new 2023 Colorado reveal and am also upset with how that turned out. Looks too much like a Tacoma or Ranger Raptor and the grille is hideous.

With the limited range,of these EV’s I think once has comes back down to $2.00/gallon these EV’s will become large paper weights. There’s plenty of oil and this climate change hysteria is none sense. My first new car was a 1970 Dodge Charger with the alarming MSRP of $3800.00 . Times sure are different. Buying a vehicle in a new car showroom is stressful, but it shouldn’t be. The customer wants the lowest price possible and the dealer wants the highest price possible. Today I can only imagine how much over MSRP these cars are. I do enjoy the videos.
