We had a customer who loaned a VW Sharan for a weekend once. It was in pristine condition when they picked it up, but when we got it back (3 days late), it looked like they'd had a quite a party in it. The fold down tables were broken, french fries all over the floor, smelled like a dutch oven, puke on the 3rd seat row and much more I've forgotten over the years. Can't remember the price to repair it, but it wasn't cheap. We never got hold of the customer, and they never paid the repair bill. And the person who lent it out forgot to take credit info. And no, they didn't buy a car from us either...

Right?! 15 miles to empty? How was that sentence not immediately followed by 'although it should have never gotten that low, we just didn't have enough to make it from the dealer straight to the gas station?' If I was the test driver, I'd be too worried about the inevitable happening to really be focused on my purchase. I know, because I test drove a new powerstroke that was below e. I really didn't want to get stranded, be responsible for a tow, and any problems from running a new diesel dry. When I told the salesman we really needed fuel, he basically said let the next guy worry about it. Wtf? Do you think I want to buy something this expensive from people who act like that? I try to give people the benefit of the doubt, but theres really no good excuse for this. Porsche, selling a $130k car makes it even worse.

So, by simply writing a comment, it actually helps the video look more successful because of the way the algorithm works. So, if you’d rather not contribute to Ed buying another Lambo, you’re best bet is to just click another video when you’ve gotten to a point you dislike. That’s not to say I care that you dislike the video, or don’t want you to comment. I couldn’t care less about either.

Ford's policy regarding test droves is amazing. I walked into a Ford dealership in 2017, parked my bicycle outside and went to the counter. I told the salesman upfront 'I can't afford a Mustang, but I really want to try driving one with a V8'. He smiled at me and said 'sorry, we don't have any demo cars with the V8'. I curiously asked if I could try the 2.3 EcoBoost and to my surprise he said yes! He then told me it's Ford's policy to let everyone try their cars - it's an investment for the future. And sure enough, I'll never forget that test drive with the salesman by my side, doing wayyy over the speed limit on an empty, wide open road. Thank you Ford!

Wish I had come across you as my sales person when I was car shopping last year. I was between cars so my girlfriend took me shopping in her 2001 Ford Freestyle (I since upgraded her to a 2021 Kia Seltos). Walked into a NJ dealer, ready to do a cash deal on a brand new RS5 coupe, and very quickly got the impression that no one was taking me serious. Couldn't be bothered to pull the car from the show room for a test drive and told me "just drive the A5 sedan we have on the lot, it's pretty much the same." Wow... Collected my things, left the dealership, and wrote off Audi entirely from my list. I made certain to let the NJ dealer know in his Google review that he'd missed out and got some lame excuse about "he [sales person] had just experienced a loss in his family and wasn't really 'back on his game'." If true, sorry for the loss, but I have to be skeptical. I am mostly confident had I pulled into the dealer in something flashier than that Freestyle, funeral or not, the experience would have been different.

[@ph1426]

Not that one or even 10 stories should represent a multi national brand That being said, I had the same experience at the Audi dealership in San Antonio, TX. To be fair, I do match pretty close the doctor in the story (as far as size and dress goes, maybe not money wise lol) While not in the same league, when I bought my new F150 I pulled up in the definition of a rust bucket. They grabbed 3 different trucks from the lot, had them fueled and ready within minutes for me. After a quick insurance and ID check, they handed me 3 sets of keys and said "try not to put more than 50 miles on them"

[@Chasmodius]

If you told them you wanted to do a cash deal, that might have been part of the problem, if what I've read lately is true. Apparently, that's a big turn-off for modern car salespeople, because the dealership makes more money on financing and leasing. Again, from what I've read.

I never floor a car that im driving for the first time, or a car that i do not own especially on public roads. Why would you ever risk getting into an accident with a car thats not yours.

[@ctdieselnut]

A lot of people don't realize that even though a car can display 15 mi to 'empty,' a slight hill can be enough to kill it. Fuel sloshes to the back of the tank, away from the lift pump, and it runs dry. It's also not good for the pump, as it is cooled by the fuel and is designed to run submerged in fuel. I've heard they can burn out running on fumes all the time. I remember reading in a ford ranger owners manual that if run out of gas, they recommend at least a couple gallons to restart. There was a little note saying if run out on a hill, it may take 5+ gal to be able to start. It's so much easier to just not be cheap or lazy and never let it get that low in the first place.

[@fbpo1699]

While this is true for older cars, it isn't for most newer cars and definitely not for the 991.1 this story is about. In the 991.1 the fuel level is not measured, but rather calculated using the input amount and information from the engine. The problem with a batch of C4Ss was that they mistakenly used the software from the normal Carrera S, which uses slightly less fuel because it doesnt have four wheel drive.

[@liamlllll]

Only thing I hate about having an Audi is the price it cost to replace parts

[@ohioplayer-bl9em]

15 miles left.. I try not to let my tank get below 1/8 because the fuel pump will run hot when it gets that low as it is not covered with fuel. A mechanic told me that once and it makes sense and my car has the original pump at 260,000 miles.. so it is true in my book.

I'm fairly certain they were made aware of this basically immediately after launch and issued a recall/ fixed the problem in production and notified the dealers. Based on the roll-out I'm quite certain that no car in North America should have had this issue, and imo the dealership tried to pull one on the customers by not making the change and pocketing the allotted budget.

This goes for most cars, but especially for Audi’s you do NOT want to slam the brakes when taking a turn with speed. Your rear end will spin out. Audis are powerful cars, you can’t have any average Joe handling these.

Did he say that NJ is only 150mles from VT?

[@thokim84]

Explaining why dealerships in America suck. In Germany and Japan you order a car to your spec.

[@jonathanthomas7228]

I wonder if homie worked in Upper Saddle River...

[@foxtrotwhiskey874]

its always that traction control lol

[@GermanKerman]

Being from north jersey I wish I could have given this dude a story. But like a good one

[@Tman450]

All of these stories just make me hate dealerships even more.

[@vladxx2]

This man sat there with a straight face and told a story about how he liked Audis best... while wearing a Porche T-shirt

[@tripprogers4814]

It's worse than you may think.. the shirt said Porch.

[@michelswerissen6544]

Running out of fuel with a porshe..........not as bad as blowing up the engine on one, just ask hoovie.

[@tripprogers4814]

yeah.. now imagine doing it in a P O R S C H E

[@StereoSoundAgent]

I'm wearing those same exact shoes as him as I'm watching this, how ironic. Nike SB dunk low pro "Pink Pigs" styled after the Porsche Pink Pink 917 racecar

[@notagain1788]

Ayo wayzata??? Porsche is next to the highway. New Ferrari dealership too.

[@peterlloyd6337]

Well so much for Audi dealerships then judging by a couple of the stories if they are anything to go by - especially the one where the damage was repaired (obviously not to standard) and then a poor purchaser has to bring it back as the boot had an issue and the damage had not been declared. Just shows it's all down to whom one has to deal with at dealerships - the brand of the car is by the by

[@cayman9873]

I bought a new jetta that was driven between 4 dealers. Had 650 miles on it and broken radio and headlight and failed engine stuff. Not a good experience

[@The8thStoryWindowLicker]

Sounds like you should always test drive vehicles in New Jersey 😉

[@MrEazyE357]

FYI, it's "no holds BARRED".

[@RobertPatrician]

Should have sent some dealer merch to the guy who gave some gas :)

[@peterga3658]

where a live in my city specifically you have to have the money to buy the car before you test drive it :P now i get why

[@jesse4589]

People that trust the cars “distance to empty” number 😬

[@gaara4667]

That intro still got me shook

[@randomness3465]

That poor RS7! Quattro does help, but it can overcome 2 feet of snow, not a bad driver.

[@markk3453]

lady be like. i did not back into that wall ! 😂

[@biggreeky]

Well.....now I know not to stretch my fuel tank that far. Glad I found out the easy way!

[@joshcarlson9352]

We need to hear more about this Jeep dealership debauchery.

[@clifbradley]

All of his stories, he makes himself try to sound like such a hero, or the smartest guy ever...and if you listen closely, everything that happens is never because of him. And he always pulls one over on someone. Rumplestilskin strikes again.

[@michaelschneider-]

@Cliff Bradley .. +1. I too heard this (It ain't me) positioning as well. . Who hangs there hat on "a thinest of margin gas gauge" whilst (professionally-?) conducting a new vehicle test drive. . Not to bright eh!

[@TheDonCucaracho]

Sounds like a typical audi fan

[@KingOath]

I think he’s completely full of shit. It’s all exaggerated with made up details. You can tell liars because they put too much specific detail into a story in an attempt to make it convincing. Most people will fall for it. But when someone seems of average intelligence but somehow has a way above average ability to recall specific details you know you are dealing with a bullshit artist.

[@drhassan6892]

You likely put regular 87 in that 911 too lol doubt anyone would have premium fuel sitting around.

[@nasaboy87]

The 300 mile car just means a shorter break in period.
