I hope the Keating Dealerships are the first ones to fall. They make it a habit of screwing over everyone especially those who least realize what is happening THE ELDERLY. Here is link hope the feds make Keating Dealerships and those associated with them the number one target.

I can tell you for a fact that in Austin the delta between everyone else and brown customers is THOUSANDS of dollars per deal.

Houston too. When I went in to buy a vehicle, the salesman happily put an offer on the table with a 22.9% interest rate that wasn't disclosed anywhere. He knew he f-ed up when I asked him if he offers 22.7% interest rates to all of his customers or just the ones that can't do math in their head.

I hope this actually works. I'm sick of having to waste a bunch of time in a back and forth with these people about all their stupid add-ons that I never agreed to buy during the negotiation process. The managing partners make an obscene amount of money off the kick backs from all these protection and vehicle recovery plans. Frankly, I don't understand how these guys at these dealerships in town can repeatedly try to pull this garbage and still continue to do business. I've always like to trade local here in BCS, but the garbage these dealerships here pull, including the Keating stores, is absurd.

Trust me, it's not based on skin color.

I worked with a guy that wasn't the sharpest tool in the drawer. He was a white kid, but no financial sense. We both bought F150s.

I had a Lariet with many options, he had an XLT that didn't have many options. He paid considerably more than I did.

My former brother in law, calling him dumber than a rock is insulting to a rock's intelligence. His car buying is going to the lot and saying, "I want that one.", then going to the F&I office and having no clue as to what's happening until he get's the keys.
