Let me preface this by saying, I went to both, stated I wasn't going to buy, and just wanted to look.
I am a polite
GMC:
Went and test drove an SLT (Which I'm considering)

hard.
When I was leaving I was surrounded by 4 sales managers.
Not super annoyed, just super pushy.
I left and went to a Chebby
Chevy:
Same speal, I said I just wanted to look in a Z71, see how much I liked the interior, and trim.
Salesman and I walk out, he's bitching about his hurt foot, sorry breh, take the golf cart?
We get in the truck, I look around, and play with the Infotainment, basic bitch shit.
He gives me a few options on the packages, and I goto shake his hand, and thank him for his time.
Me: Let me get your card, so I can get in tough with you
Him: Man! I ain't got no cards, it's Saturday, I'm out here to sell cars!
He rushed out, and then walked off to talk to another customer.

The business my grandparents ran/operated took them off the rail car:
Their business was named "Ramp Operation"
Very fitting.
They would park them in a lot, and the trucks would come and load them up and take them to each dealership.
Not just trucks, my grandfather took us down to see some of the first Vipers, new C5 Corvette.
They did GM and Chrysler, not Ford.
I found some pictures from the late 1980's when they first bought the business.

It's how we ended up in BR, it was the central location.
