Salesmen are pretty good at judging what works with which people. It's still really douchey and manipulative though.

My last car purchase involved something like this but without the misogyny. I knew exactly what I wanted, for how much, and had my own external financing. The dude loudly sighed on the test drive multiple times after trying to build a rapport unsuccessfully. I was perfectly courteous to him, but I wasn't giving in to his sales pitch one inch.

Sorry guy, I view you as the cashier at Walmart and not my buddy who's gonna get me a killer deal on undercoating.
