This basic truth obout the car business accounts for the fect that « "wheel ond deal" dealer, to use the trade slang, can't operate successfully in @ small town or city. He must pull buyers from miles around, usually on a@ basis of misleading price ads or similar gimmick claims. It logically follows that since he doesn't expect to see his customers again (the distance involved quickly discourages driving back and forth for service or complaints) this type of dealer considers his out-of-town buyers foir game for every type of corner cutting that will squeeze.an extra dollar of profit out of the sale. If you deal out of your own town or city with this type of p on the und dable desire to 'save' « few dollars, , you ore likely to regret it, as thousands of buyers whe heve will testify.
