@this_that5553 hey bro, all cars are the same under the hood now. I sold the same parts to Ford and GM as I did Toyota and Mercedes. Same goes for all vendors, I've had the opportunity to work in every North American auto plant.
Buy what you need, for example I'm a simple man, needed a new truck, I shopped for like 3 years looking for exactly what I need. I picked up a 2010 F150 16k miles, for $7500. I wanted an 8 foot bed single cab no power anything. Less shit to break.

Feck. Even our engine compartments are globalist.

TBH cars like Mercedes are 100% fact more $ for parts I drove a BMW before I got my silverado and the cost of parts were crazy, even for an oil chage, having to get premium gas sucked espiccally

It's all malarkey. They make Mercedes in Alabama

Except the SL, SLK, C-Class, E-Class Coupe and the GLK

made in good ole mother land germany

They do pick up work

Does everyone know about the NUMMI plant in Cali? Where GM and Toyota's were made in the same plant.
It's Tesla plant now. I only went in there once, right after they started tooling it.

yea that was old GM

they left that plant after they became a new company after the bail out

most trucks all made at fort wayne now a days brotha

Yeah it closed in 2010, there are parts manufacturers everywhere.
Are you in Northern Indiana? I worked at the Subaru and Caterpillar plants around Indy.

No man im out in the city I live in Boston I work at a large volume GM dealership

Ok so I wake up at 3 this morning to my trucks horn blaring for no reason. I don't think it was the alarm because it was one solid blast. It only stopped when I honked the horn

Anyone know whats up?

@here

Does it only happen when it's cold?

@Thomas Morrow

This is the first time it's ever happened

The temperature did drop last night though

Most of the parts around the horn are plastic. Cold weather can cause the plastic parts to compress which would cause the horn to go off.
You have to open up your horn to do a little modification to the horn pads.

Yeah you probably have the connections touching

@Thomas Morrow let us know what you find out.

For sure. The cold could very well have been it

@bostoneuropean glad you’re in here. I lot of people are completely in the dark about car sales

Glad to be here and trust me I️ know I️ see people getting fucked all day every day I’m here to make sure it doesn’t happen to our brothers

I️ will give best step by step negotiating skills hahaha you will be a better negotiator than (((them)))

@bostoneuropean I've heard that a lot of dealerships do 0% interest towards the end of the year. Is that true? If so, now is the time to buy, right?

Buy a car cash if you can dude. You never really win at a dealership, especially if you finance.

^^^

spooky_kraut#8307 Alright so here’s the thing with 0% yes dealerships do 0% but a lot of the time they have to buy the rate down so you will loose discounts on the vehicle either way they get their money the reason dels at the end of the year are good because the manufacturer give extra rebates to get rid of left over 2017’s

I just went through a lot of leasing research. Was gonna lease instead of buy my wife a car. Seemed like leases work for nicer cars but don’t pan out for cheaper ones. Plus they hide all their fees in $ down on a lease. Seemed like it is best to never put money down on a lease

Just decided to fix the car we have for now

Well my horn went off again last night

I ended up disconnecting the battery

@Thomas Morrow can you go ahead and pop open the steering wheel?

Haven't had time to yet. If all else fails I'll just pull the fuse for the duration of winter

Hopefully I can just fix it after work today

Sounds like a good long term solution
