I called ahead and explained that I wouldn't have the full check for the car until the next day due to my bank being closed. I asked if there was anything I could do to make sure I would drive the car home that night if that's what I wanted. I drove 1.5 hours one way to see the car. The salesman said the money down and the preapproval letter would work after offering me to finance there and I told him no. When we sat down to start paperwork, he said "You don't have the check, do you?". I said no because we already discussed this on the phone and he said I couldn't pull the car off the lot without the check, but I could finance there if I wanted. He also stated that it wouldn't hurt my credit if they pull it again because the credit bureau lumps it all together for buying a new car (which is not true). Clearly frustrated, I asked for money off of the car. He couldn't do that because there were 4 other people lined up to see it. I like the car, but I didn't approve of the dishonesty from the salesman. I drove a total of 6 hours instead of the expected 3.
