Here's why Carvana is absolutely slaughtering car dealerships:
I found a truck I wanted, brand new or I would have used Carvana
Called the dealer and talked to a salesman whom I know btw
"Hey I found this truck I want, I've already researched, don't need to test drive, I just want to buy it"
Salesman: "Ok when can you come in and test drive? "
Me: "I don't need to test drive, I've driven them, this is the one I want. I'm pretty busy so is there a way to just do the paperwork digitally and do you offer delivery?"
Salesman: "Sorry we'll have to have you come in for that and go through our finance office"
Me: "Ok, I work every day until 5. I see you're open until 7 tonight can I just come by after work and pick it up?"
Salesman: "We are open until 7 but can you be here by 5?"
Me: "No, I work until 5 so it would be like 530. That should be enough time right?"
Salesman: "How about Thursday the same time?"
Dude I'm literally trying to throw money at you and make this the easiest sale of your life
@glorpasaurusrex@indexnforgetit@lowstakesdre They would do it…if Politicians let them. They make it such a burden, due to dealers lobbying against it. They want to rip you off.
@indexnforgetit@lowstakesdre Blame politicians for keeping DTC such a burden. You should be able to order the car you want right online, know exactly what your monthly payment is when you’re ordering it, and pick it up.
@indexnforgetit Direct to consumer is the way to go. The only reason why car dealerships still exist is because of laws protecting them. All you need is a showroom, and service bays by the manufacturer (IE Tesla). No one wants to sit in dealerships wondering if they’re getting ripped off anymore
Side note: If the US and Iran can literally sign a peace deal electronically why is it when you buy a house in the United States you have to pay thousands to some bullshit title company
Airlines have to stop lying about delays. Computer says we departed at 9:35. We just took off at 10:06. And we were scheduled to take off at 8:40. This after last nights delayed flight stranded me in Dallas overnight.
We need better comprehensive statistics to fix this ongoing problem

Damn i can’t believe Spirit is no longer available to fly, it’s just now setting in as i look for cost efficient flights ahead of time before for next weeks World Cup games.
@FreddyLA7 People have a lot of misconceptions of Americans…but they’re some of the best people around. Sometimes people don’t like the forwardness, but the US has a lot of great people. Hope you enjoy the trip.
This is all so insane. We found this when we got back to our room. And then someone even sent cupcakes to our room. I genuinely don’t understand how it got to this point. We’re just normal World Cup tourists.😭😭
@Tripify_ That’s my point. Having a Worlds team isn’t an accomplishment by itself if the routine isn’t competitive for the division. I’d rather see a gym dominate a level that fits their athletes than force a Worlds team and spend all that money just to struggle all season.
@nypost You’re better off with a FA that is trained to save their ass if there’s an accident or incident. Just look at the accident in Naples, when the two pilots died and the FA saved the passengers on the private jet.
Tesla driver is sitting on his phone at a red light when a motorcycle cop notices. Instead of pulling him over right away, the officer takes off his body cam, records the driver using his phone, then swings around behind him and lights him up for the ticket. 😭
Worth it or should cops have bigger things to worry about?
@fayehill_ They should let NT compete at Majors. That all girl U18NT division was crazy this year. It was so good, and so many teams. Glow & Lady Royalty were fantastic.
just finished listening to the Deshaun Watson interview.
Thought he did a really good job handling some of the questions. Came across well.
That’s not an easy situation to be in, could have been a catastrophe, but ended up being a a positive for DW4.
