    So brave of you to “out yourself” on here, LOL! :crapstorm:

    There is a lot of disdain from some TW members for “stealerships”. I used to sell Hondas for about 6 years, tough business. There are some really fair, and some really shitty people in the car business (as in life).

    Congrats on the milestone!

    Thanks for the welcome.

    If people have a disdain for a guy going to work everyday to provide for him and his family, that’s their problem.

    As you said, there are shitty people in every profession. One of the beauty’s of selling Toyota’s is you don’t have to lie or make excuses to sell it. Just show people what fits their needs and the rest falls into place.

    And this is why you are successful. Sales 101.

    As for "stealerships"...every Tacoma came thru one originally. If they want buy direct, call up Tesla.

    Amen, my brother! Selling Hondas was like that. The biggest challenge was dealing with domestic buyers. Convincing them to trust in the longevity I promised, and explaining that they’d never see $7500 off a new Accord, lol

    I do more than I can easily list here. Basically, if you can imagine it being done with a helicopter, I have probably done it already.

    I can do you one better.

    Find a helicopter flight school near you and sign up for an introductory flight. They'll let YOU take the controls and fly the helicopter.

    Plenty of flight schools in your area. I can't recommend it enough.
