Car salesman are given a bevy of questions to ask a prospective buyer. The worst is, “How much are you looking to spend?” The best is, “What are you looking for in a car?” One of the more commonly asked questions is, “What else are you looking at?”
Many years ago, I was car shopping and jockeyed between the Nissan Maxima and a BMW 3 Series. Both reps asked me that last question. The Nissan sales rep ripped the BMW and made faces like he’d just eaten some bad sushi. The BMW rep, however, replied by patiently describing the differences between their car and his.
