But when a member is looking for advice when buying a new RV and "don't trust the salesman" is the 1st advice offered without knowing anything about the dealership or the salesperson the buyer is working with... isn't that a tad prejudice?
Well, maybe, but it might also mean it's the highest priority for people who have been on the buying end, and found it true. Not everyone is making this stuff up, so there must be some truth in it. I can't imagine that everyone is 'out to get' RV salesmen. I mean, why would they?
All RV salesmen are 'out to get' buyers either, but the salesmen have a much higher incentive to keep that buyer right on that lot at any cost, whereas, if the buyer leaves, he will find an RV, but the salesman won't see a paycheck if the buyer buys elsewhere. That incentive to 'speak in forked tongue' is pretty high.
